Reminds me of a high school classmate’s surprise at learning Paul McCartney was in a band before Wings.

20 times teenagers discovered old music bands and were surprised that adults around them knew about them

Why do we spend billions on marginally effective therapeutics and so much less on improving the social determinants of health? Because nobody makes money on helping people be healthy. If this pandemic shows us anything, let it be a shift in priorities. https://t.co/ReYc8u8sEQ

@joshuagserrano Try the first episode of “Tales From The Loop” on Amazon

[Ron Whiting @RonCWhiting]

@joshuagserrano Not sure if it fits, but Looper is interesting time travel movie. Russian Doll was so good.

[Ron Whiting @RonCWhiting]

@ebruenig Someone explained to me one time that children are entirely focused on parental attention. And negative attention is still attention. So if one child is particularly good and using up all of the parent's positive attention...well, good luck with the second child.

@ChuckWendig Two spaces after a period.

[Brad Shapiro @btshapir]

It remains a mystery to me why we aren't talking about nursing homes 24/7. Massive share of deaths. Huge scope for improvement, actionable *now*.

Seems not enough people follow @DavidCGrabowski. Please do.

@aaronecarroll @aaronecarroll could you address the idea that our strategy needs to be age and risk based as opposed to blanket stay home policies?
