As we enter our 6th wave, I applaud @CAPublicHealth for its decision to transition #COVID19 testing to @Color, a CA company that will help save the state money on testing while removing barriers to access and reducing disparities in care https://t.co/MBkMweupou @abc7newsbayarea

Spoke with @sfchronicle this morning about @Color's commitment to serving public health needs during the pandemic - from Day 1 (March 2020) to yesterday's confirmed #Omicron case and beyond. https://t.co/MP0BIZzQ9Q

[Alicia Zhou, PhD @ay_zhou]

The last 24 hrs has been busy for the @Color team. Couldn't be more proud of our continued commitment, diligence and work towards fighting the COVID pandemic.

This case was identified through testing at our Burlingame lab. The sample, collected at a Color testing site, was quickly confirmed as an Omicron variant in <30 hrs — a testament to the power of effective public-private partnerships like those we have with @SF_DPH and @UCSF.

Woke up this morning thinking about @BernardJTyson and his extraordinary leadership. We lost him two years ago today, far too soon.

[Marc Longpre @marclongpre]

Big day for @Color (client) and everyone who is rooting for more accessible, more equitable healthcare

BREAKING: Bye, single family zoning in California. Governor Gavin Newsom has signed SB9, making duplexes legal on any lot zoned for one house statewide. He also signed SB10 making it easier for cities to approve small apartment buildings in single family neighborhoods.

Of course this trial was going to have a lot of weird:

[Ashish K. Jha @ashishkjha]

It is absolutely possible to safely have in-person schools

But you can't just wing it

You need to

1. Vaccinate adults
2. Ventilate classrooms
3. Test folks weekly
4. Wear masks indoors

If adults acted responsibly

Kids could be safe in classrooms

Lets not fail our kids again

[Marc Longpre @marclongpre]

Must read from @ay_zhou this morning in @statnews

[Alicia Zhou, PhD @ay_zhou]

It is currently impossible for everyone in my household to be vaccinated. Because I have a 6 year old. My piece, outlining the mitigation efforts our schools can employ to prevent school-related outbreaks is live on @STATNews. https://t.co/lthqPTu6Np

[Marc Longpre @marclongpre]

Big big congrats to @cmsavello for being named to the @BusinessInsider 30 Under 40 in Healthcare list for her leadership @Color as the company helps to transform how the last mile of care is delivered. So well deserved.

Another must read from @edyong209

[Bob Wachter @Bob_Wachter]

If you want to understand our current moment and the potential end-game, @edyong209's new piece @TheAtlantic does just that. Ed is simply the best at knitting together a verbal tapestry from many threads. https://t.co/kP0vpX8DHJ
