@sigallab Alex Sigal kicks off day 2 of the #SACovidWorkshop22, speaking about some of the work coming out of @AHRI Sigal Lab. “is it the virus or pre-existing immunity?”

We often hear people say ‘forgive & forget’ & move on. There is some truth in that but let’s give it another interpretation. How about ‘forget it enough to get over it; but make sure you remember it enough when you need to so it doesn’t happen again’. Learn from the experience.

The fastest way to change someone’s negative misperceptions about you is to work with them on a team.

Getting vaccinated isn't just about you. It's also about protecting people around you. When you get vaccinated, you're much less likely to spread the infection to an older person or someone with a kidney transplant, for example, who may die from it.
