As we await the Supreme Court’s pending, painful reversal of Roe, it is a time to be loud and it is a time to act. That’s why today, I am sharing my own abortion story in @ElleMagazine: https://t.co/9y9fHLJcbW

I could not think of a better role model to name this important new initiative after! Kudos to @HHMINEWS for helping build the future of science we all need, while honoring @UMBC President Hrabowski👏🏻👏🏻

When someone certified by @ABIMcert says things like “COVID vaccines are the most lethal vaccines in history” or “children can’t spread COVID”, we are not dealing with valid professional disagreement: we are dealing with wrong answers. https://t.co/dwvMrFE29O 2/4

Perhaps my favorite statement from this article: "We need to support action through research that identifies which payment strategies are fruitful for advancing equity, and which are not." #HealthEquity Thanks @JoshuaLiaoMD @Risalavizzo @AmolNavathe https://t.co/X6Qzy19zFX

No surprise

FDA expert advisors vote (by 17 to 0 with 1 abstention)

saying benefits of Pfizer vaccine for kids 5 to 11 clearly outweigh the risks

They got it right

I expect FDA to authorize it and next week, CDC to as well

And soon, kids 5-11 will get the shot

Terrific

[Amol Navathe @AmolNavathe]

Today, the 5 most vaccinated states (14M people) had

580 people in hospital, 12 deaths

In the 5 least vaccinated states (16M people)?

6,600 hospitalized, 104 deaths

Per capita , least vaccinated states have

10X hospitalizations and 7X deaths

So yeah, vaccines are working
