For the past year my main concern has been this winter. Now we’re one week away from it being over. As endpoints go, that’s something to celebrate.

With cases surging in California and across the U.S., taking precautions to protect the health of ourselves and loved ones has never been more critical. We can slow the spread of #COVID19, but only if we do it together.

We have the chance to prevent another spike in #COVID19 cases – but we must act quickly. @bhangrajay & I lay out five things that the nation must do to take advantage of this tipping point and propel the U.S. out of this pandemic, via @ABC. https://t.co/PG0cf66oOB

We all likely know by now that Black Americans are 2x likely to die of COVID-19 as white people. But if you’re between 35-44, Black Americans are *9x* more likely to die of COVID-19 as white people. 15/
