Today #JaneGoodall passed away at age 91. She first went to Africa in her 20’s and for the next 70 years taught us all that primates—and all of nature’s creations—are part of the same extended family. I first met her in 2007 in Tanzania at a TED conference. She was an inspiration to me and hundreds of millions more. May her memory be a blessing.

So grateful you escaped safelyvmy friend. What a world that seems to turn a blind eye to violence everywhere, and touches even you, a man of such peace and compassion. Heartbreaking. @DrTedros

Our mission to negotiate the release of @UN staff detainees and to assess the health and humanitarian situation in #Yemen concluded today. We continue to call for the detainees' immediate release. As we were about to board our flight from Sana’a, about two hours ago, the airport came under aerial bombardment. One of our plane’s crew members was injured. At least two people were reported killed at the airport. The air traffic control tower, the departure lounge — just a few meters from where we were — and the runway were damaged. We will need to wait for the damage to the airport to be repaired before we can leave. My UN and @WHO colleagues and I are safe. Our heartfelt condolences to the families whose loved ones lost their lives in the attack.

4/4: Effectively, I had the good fortune to be at the forefronts of two evolving systems of intelligence: customer 360 and Precision Medicine. @Benioff and @salesforce have inspired me greatly & played a big role in whatever success I have achieved. #Trailblazers #Salesforce

1/4: In 2008, I had an incredible opportunity to pick up @salesforce over an undergrad summer intern at Citigroup. This led to an asymmetrical career where I was simultaneously a Salesforce architect, A.I. & Cancer Researcher, entrepreneur (with exits) and now an investor.

from my good friend rebecca solnit: They want you to feel powerless and to surrender and to let them trample everything and you are not going to let them. You are not giving up, and neither am I. The fact that we cannot save everything does not mean we cannot save anything a

@DanielCressman_ I love your comment! Thank you. There was a Latin expression “ the one thing that we can’t solve yet is matters of taste”! I suppose that applies to poetry too. Thanks again.

More scary than the Shinning or Nightmare on Elm Street Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said that former President Donald Trump has "promised" him "control of the public health agencies." If true, Trump is creating a Halloween horror movie Source: ABC News search.app/WsuVzFyFuXUQhu…

I just spent several days with @richardbranson and @sufisal (Dr. Salman Ahmed) discussing the dangerous detention of former PM @ImranKhanPTI in Pakistan. As a physician and friend of Pakistan, I have watched with pain and sadness at his deterioriting health status while a prisoner in round the clock solitary confinement. To make it worse, he has not been allowed reasonable visits from his own physician. His health status alone demands an immediate release to hospital or other good medical care before it is too late. What happened to Alexei Navalny in Russia's gulag cannot be allowed to happen to @ImranKhanPTI .
Richard Branson@richardbranson

It's not cricket. @ImranKhanPTI should be released immediately by Pakistan’s authorities. His arbitrary detention casts a dark shadow on respect for democracy and rule of law in Pakistan: time.com/7093750/pakist…

My colleagues and I have published a rebuttal in The Hill to the opinions and “alternative facts" about vaccines being promulgated by RFK Junior and former President Trump. The errors made in their data and judgment, sadly endangers all of our children thehill.com/opinion/health…

The idea of separating CDC into such arbitrary component parts is as foolish as cutting genomics into two specialties—one that studies only the half of chomesome pairs that are even numbered—but not odd—numbered. And other other half into the study of the odd ones. Odd, indeed.
STAT@statnews

Eight former CDC directors write that they are "deeply concerned" that recommendations to cut CDC funding would cost lives and damage the economy in a First Opinion. trib.al/D7YWcUv
