So proud of my peers and the technicians showing up every day to keep patients home and healthy ❤️

This is Owen. He's celebrating his 101st birthday in a few days, so we are throwing him a HUGE virtual party. 🎉🎂🎈💛🙌 (📷: @mhdksafa)

Clothing companies stepping up to manufacture medical grade masks is the innovation we need right now. How can you contribute? You don’t have to be a doctor or nurse to help fight this pandemic

[Joelle LaBossiere @joellelaboss]

Just a quick shoutout to some companies I have seen contributing their unique skills or resources to fight this pandemic: @JetBlue @EsteeLauder @gucci @hm @sweetgreen @Tesla 👏🏻❤️

My mother is not expendable. Your mother is not expendable.

We will not put a dollar figure on human life.

We can have a public health strategy that is consistent with an economic one.

No one should be talking about social darwinism for the sake of the stock market.

[Abraar Karan @AbraarKaran]

For those worried about the economy and thinking that we might be ready to pull back social distancing soon...

There will be no economy if you’re too sick to work.

And there will be no hospital beds/vents if everyone gets sick.

These big social distancing measures take time to work. The impact of big interventions in Wuhan China took about 3 wks to start to reverse things. And then everyday after the situation got better. In the US, we're about 7 to 10 days into this, depending on the state.10/x

2/ If necessity is truly the mother of invention, we need it.

We need every single person in this country to take this epidemic as a personal threat-- to you, to your family, to everyone you love and care about.

If you are doing anything less than that right now, wake up.

Great read! We have the resources and innovation to use many of these strategies in the US but we need to take action fast and every American must do their part

1/ Of all the articles I read this week on #COVID19, this @nytimes ⬇️ really caught my eye.

It was an interview w/ Dr. Bruce Aylward, the lead on the @WHO team that visited China to examine their response.

It surprised me for multiple reasons.

@shawna_amoroso Thank you Shawna! 😊

[Joelle LaBossiere @joellelaboss]

This morning my sweet family decided to celebrate my birthday early 💕 They came and decorated my porch and even left some surprises! I haven’t seen them in about two weeks because we are practicing social distancing

[Bethenny Frankel @Bethenny]

I can order hundreds of thousands and just wired money to order thousands of masks for nationwide hospitals who we are in contact with. They are at RISK! 1/10 ITALY deaths were health care workers. Donate to https://t.co/NYoisDh53v To save lives of health care workers.

If you worked at a supermarket or a pharmacy today, thank you. A million. We need each other. #coronavirus

Today ~29 million #CVS customers will receive this note from @CVSHealth President & CEO Larry Merlo recognizing the five-year anniversary of the company's decision to quit tobacco (still the only national pharmacy to do so) #TobaccoFree #FollowOurLead

[Joelle LaBossiere @joellelaboss]

8319 crushed @JSkinnerCVS in a flu shot contest so he had to floss for the pharmacy team (with the help of intern Cuong) 😂 #flossingforflushots I think he officially wins the coolest DL award 💉
