Congratulations to my amazing sister @drmeena78 on giving an inspiring lecture to the @BrownMedicine class of 2027!! #WhiteCoatCeremony @MountSinaiNYC @vvr379 @KTrain444 @nishantshahmd @preets579 @odissi @BrownUniversity

Privileged to watch my sister-in-law, @drmeena78 give this year’s @BrownMedicine Cooke lectureship for the 25th Annual Ceremony of Commitment to Medicine. A fantastic, thoughtful speech! @odissi @vvr379 @preets579 @praveen520 @MountSinaiNYC

Normalizing inevitable failures/rejections in academia & life. Actually 2nd year w/o selection for a @ACCinTouch committee. Glad others get to serve, will re-apply next year, & meanwhile more time w/ @odissi & the kids! Can't beat that. @ditchhaporia @athenapoppas @medtmaddox

98% of neonatal deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries, especially in hospitals. On World Prematurity Day, @nest360org shares with us how they provide access to quality care in hospitals through the creation of CPAP devices which have inspired a global alliance

Come work with me! @BIDMChealth is hiring for an inpatient ID PharmD 👇🏼 Great colleagues, phenomenal trainees, & $5 Red Sox tickets. Plus, we can be BFFs! ☺️ @SIDPharm @accpinfdprn

2/ Now I am doing both #medpeds ID and research. Trainees - I recommend you go somewhere that will GUIDE you into YOUR vision for yourself. Programs - have faith in us that don't fit the molds.

1/ Hi #MedPeds ID friends, I'm trying to bring together the trainees and faculty who have previously completed or are currently in a combined Adult & Pediatric ID fellowship. So we can connect and create network to support trainees! #MedPedsID

3. We need technical and $$ support (DFIs?) for scale-out and tech transfer where feasible. Expanded manufacturing globally is a no-regrets move, we can use it for other vaccines and biologics in the future. We need risk capital to go into this. (4/4)

@odissi is dressed and ready to go for her presentation/demonstration for @unccharlotte students. Thank you for inviting her, @odissirocks! @preets579 @praveen520

Our response to the Covid-19 pandemic should build on lessons from the HIV and Ebola epidemics, including the importance of basing interventions on sound science and of involving affected communities in planning and implementation of research and care. #COVID19

Why has the United States handled this pandemic so badly? The Editors note that although we came into this crisis with enormous advantages, our current political leaders have demonstrated that they are dangerously incompetent.

Thank you to the amazing neonatal #nurses who are dedicated to caring for small & sick newborns. With their partnership & support, #NEST360 will reduce #newborn mortality in #Africa #NeonatalNursesWeek #EveryNewborn #yearofthenurseandmidwife

@jljcolorado @linseymarr @ShellyMBoulder @CathNoakes @Don_Milton @SaskiaPopescu @eliowa @GidMK I think the real problem has been communication across disciplines. The terminology is confusing and means different things to different people, which is why I agree with @SaskiaPopescu that we need to reconsider the language we use to discuss “airborne” transmission. 2/2

False dichotomies! Not yes/no to masks, but when/where. Not open/closed economy, but how to open safer. Not #COVID19 either overblown or disaster; it's a deadly pandemic that also causes mild illness. Not health vs. economy. Protecting health is the road to economic recovery.

So excited to see my friend and amazing ID doc @Payal_Patel on the news tonight explaining how to travel safely during COVID!! @UMIntMed @JHU_Alumni @BIDMC_IDFellows @uthsaim @UTHealthSAlumni https://t.co/wyWdrYJrYt

3/ All i see is reactive crisis management S. Korea, Germany, Singapore may be able to contain #COVID19 until vaccine but US looking more like Iran or Italy--with infections driving herd immunity unless massive new policy for pub health containment @SHEA_Epi

3) We have never accomplished contact tracing on the scale that will be necessary -- and again, to keep cases low, we will have to accomplish that everywhere, not just some places.
