I've been too busy helping @EskenaziHealth handle #COVID19 to tweet. But I am so excited to have received the #CovidVaccine yesterday at Eskenazi. This is the beginning of the end of #Covid. Kudos to Eskenazi Health, @IUIDfellowship, @StateHealthIN .

We stopped isolating MRSA patients a year ago. No change in overall incidence. Be careful looking at your data. We have seen seasonal trends for years (highest in the summer, lowest in autumn). Don't confuse seasonal variation for a real change.

@NEJM nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… Interesting proposal to establish non-profits to produce new antibiotics. For-profits have given us great drugs but are failing to make novel antibiotics that are desperately needed but will have small market share.

Complacent, anti-science anti-vaxxers are not confined to one religion. They have had the privilege of living without measles and refuse to believe how bad the pre #vaccine days were.
