@PolyMatters Excellent video. While I was lucky and succeeded in Gaokao, in my 1st years in univ I had dreams about back in classroom and panicked. It was intense but many of us still managed to have fun. Looking back, I wish I had more time exploring other interests and had more diverse edu

President Trump today at the White House said to me: “Be nice. Don't be threatening.”

I’m not the first human being, woman, black person or journalist to be told that while doing a job.

My take: Be steady. Stay focused. Remember your purpose. And, always press forward.

Trump is suing to get this taken off the TV LOL can you guys make sure that people see it especially your Trumpy friend from high school.

This is not a vacation.

While most of our residents understand this, some have refused to listen. So for the good of the city, we are immediately closing high-traffic areas of the city until further notice.

The Trump campaign just released a cease and desist letter demanding that TV stations immediately pull this ad. https://t.co/BG5NHKJBzd

We are not willing to sacrifice 1-2% of New Yorkers.

That’s not who we are.

We will fight to save every life we can.

I am not giving up.

Computer models have never been more important in the response to an infectious disease. That puts a huge responsibility on the modelers. New story by @kakape and me: https://t.co/QzXKaDi1rB

These are the burdens our medical heroes already face in NYC. It's only going to get harder across the country. Another reason to maintain social distancing policies at least until we have comprehensive testing in place. Not just for our sake—for theirs. https://t.co/bwNXhOPMYs

In January, Donald Trump claimed the coronavirus was “totally under control.”

In February, he said it would disappear.

Now, he’s saying it “could’ve been stopped pretty easily if we had known.”

Donald Trump knew. He failed to act. And now we’re paying the price.

We had projected a need for 110K hospital beds at the apex of this virus.

The rate of infection is INCREASING and the curve has increased.

New projections show we may need 140K beds.

NYS is doing everything we can on every level to slow the spread.

We need your cooperation.

People keep saying COVID-19 is a 'black swan' event - completely unexpected. Then there's this, from 2013 by @kakape: "This shows, that right now in China, there are bats carrying a virus that can directly infect people & cause another SARS pandemic" https://t.co/pXIPCp2U9H
