The more I think about it, the more concerned I am about 25th Amendment issues & Trump's mental status. We know he was "lethargic" & we know he's been hypoxic (low oxygen). We now know he's on a medication (dexamethasone) that causes confusion or altered thinking at times (1/3)

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.

How Iceland's science heft countered #COVID19. Major contributions in recognition of asymptomatics, mass screening, genomics, duration of immune response. Unlike New Zealand, no closure of borders. Pandemic fatigue. nature.com/articles/d4158…

It PAINS & infuriates me that we continue a path of INACTION beyond a vaccine Deaths are increasing. Yet our leaders CHOOSE to do nothing The nation should be in an uproar! We could ALL know our infection status daily & stop #COVID19 Instead our leaders choose dying Pathetic.

33 yrs ago, one of my co-chief residents UC San Francisco was Steve Hahn, who went on to a storied career as a cancer specialist. In Dec 2019, he became the 24th director of U.S. FDA. The rest, as they say, is history. On Monday, In the Bubble, I chat w/ Steve; his 1st post-FDA interview.

When I see folks wearing a mask indoors when they don’t have to, I think cool - they’re choosing public safety if unvaccinated or taking a cautious route if fully vaccinated bc their own personal risk tolerance. Either way - not something to shame them for.

Whenever I see Dr Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD DSc(hon) on TV or on my timeline, I stop whatever I'm doing and pay attention. He's a source of accurate, level-headed medical advice in a world sorely lacking in them. 🙏

Yesterday, Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts. Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressional mandated. They've saved millions of lives. 🧵
