I get asked sometimes by friends and family why I still mask. I point out that I’m a scientist who publishes on sc2. If I approach the virus with caution, there are probably good reasons for it. (People usually don’t want to listen to the reasons).

Thank you to everyone who attended the #COVIDrehab forum in-person and online. It was a great day of knowledge exchange and collaboration!

Our NIH grant to discover coronavirus antiviral meds was terminated today. With this grant, we had developed a better SARSCoV2 inhibitor than Paxlovid, and we recently discovered an improved drug that looks better than Pfizer's own second-generation inhibitor.

The reason healthcare hasn’t completely imploded yet is purely because of HCW sacrifice. Not the strength of our economy. Not sound business models. Not proper administration. HCWs are shouldering the burden and keeping us afloat in spite of all that. They are the only reason.

Taking precautions to stop the spread of a potentially crippling or lethal virus isn’t “living in fear”… it’s being a decent person.

96% of the people in this country who graduated from medical school looked at the data on vaccines, and made the same choice for themselves that they are asking you to make. Do we really believe Twitter or tik tok or cable news knows more about medicine than 96% of US docs? 🤷🏽‍♂️
