@IUraizee3MD Been there

@TeamCaptainJohn I was at my desk at Albany Medical Center when I saw a news item about a plane hitting the World Trade Center. Went to faculty lounge, where I saw the towers fall. AMC prepared for casualties expected to be transferred upstate. None came.

Dear @GovWhitmer PLEASE shut down in door dining and youth sports. We are NOT going to vaccinate ourselves out of this. The delay between vaccine effect means we’re still MONTHS away from getting this under control. Hospitalizations are rapidly increasing. THIS ISNT POLITICS.

[Barbara McKenna @gipath1]

@Amy_Siskind @MalcolmNance Good reason to stop coming to Florida!

[Hensley Lab @SCOTTeHENSLEY]

People should stop calling SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines a ‘miracle’. These vaccine are not miracles—they did not drop out of the sky. These vaccine are the result of decades of basic research.

Everyone who likes the idea of vaccine miracles should support funding for basic research.

@JiaqiShi @ScienceAdvances @PanCAN @pbpath @PanCanResearch @UMichPath @UMICHpancreas @UMich @UMRogelCancer Jiaqi...how are you? Wish I could see you. Maybe if we ever get COVID behind us. Take care.

My statement on the actions taken during today’s meeting of the Board of Wayne County Canvassers.

Worth noting that U.S.-based Moderna's co-founders and CEO are all immigrants.

Former WH COS John Kelly has told friends, about Trump: “The depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. The dishonesty, the transactional nature of every relationship, though it's more pathetic than anything else. He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life."

[Elliot Williams @elliotcwilliams]

To clarify a misleading point @LindseyGrahamSC just made: the reason SC gets less ACA money per capita than CA/NY/MA is that its political leaders chose not to expand Medicaid.

He tried to make it about red v. blue states, but it's actually about a failure of leadership in SC.

[Ezra Klein @ezraklein]

It's not just that Trump is a bad president. It's that he's a bad person.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

It's even more clear than it was before the loss of RBG that people must vote in unprecedented numbers in this election so that its outcome is crystal clear, unless we want to see the President appoint a justice who will control its outcome.

@BurkinsDee It’s another delay tactic. Won’t hold up in court. Avoids deposition.

[Barbara McKenna @gipath1]

@MariaWesterhoff @JiaqiShi @OlcaBasturk @pbpath @lbsmithmd @USGIPS @UMichPath Yes, congratulations to Jiaqi!

[Barbara McKenna @gipath1]

@Eggmcmullen Congratulations!

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

.@realDonaldTrump actually can’t help that he’s intellectually, psychologically, and morally unfit for any public office. But there are 52 people who could’ve done something about it 5 weeks ago. No one should forget their responsibility, not this fall, in 2022 and 2024—or ever.

[Barbara McKenna @gipath1]

@sbell021 You don’t recognize class when you see it because you put up with a jerk for a coach.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

It’s really a bad and dangerous thing that the president of the United States is an impulsive, incompetent, and delusional narcissistic sociopath.

[Barbara McKenna @gipath1]

@lbsmithmd @UMichPath @SocforHemepath @ASCP_Chicago @Pathologists @TheUSCAP Very sad. I am grateful to have known him so many years.
