@earthquakesSF It felt strong in SF.

Tragic. One of the biggest public health crisis facing us today.

It has been an honor to serve as Acting Commissioner and continue to help support, as I know the Biden-Harris Administration does, the science-based public health work of the world-class FDA workforce. I will continue to act in this role during Dr. Califf’s confirmation process.

Xfinity down for me too. Im in San Fran. Sigh

After spiking recently as UK fully reopened, covid cases are declining again and hospitalizations, deaths remained mostly flat; reflecting high population immunity. As US conditions improve and more activity resumes, cases may also bump; but vaccines, therapeutics can protect us

@ScottGottliebMD @NEJM Do vaccinated people who get infected with COVID transmit Covid to others?

In an evaluation in @NEJM of 2,380 vaccinated people serially tested for SARS2 in a Rhode Island prison complex, there were 27 breakthrough cases of Covid detected; all of the cases were asymptomatic and 10 of 27 were in people who weren’t fully vaccinated nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Damaging American vaccine patented innovation in general, after American innovation just saved us all is folly. And just because foreign manufacturers who cannot make enough of other good vaccines think somehow magically they can scale these complex vaccines quickly?

@AACR My heart breaks 💔

@DHymanMD @baselga1 My heart breaks

This heartfelt message to FDA staff from @reaganudall & the FDA Alumni Association means so much to me. We are all passionate about the mission to promote & protect the public health & on behalf of the FDA staff, we truly appreciate the continued support & kind words.

We are just starting to understand the impact of COVID-19 on Americans' mental health, but one thing is abundantly clear: access to treatment, including permanent authorization/reimbursement for telehealth services, is critical. nbcnews.com/health/mental-…

Many Americans could take one simple step to protect themselves: Buy a better mask, writes @ScottGottliebMD wsj.com/articles/some-…

Our #COVID19 vaccine, if approved, will be an important part of global, national & state prevention plans, but not the only one. Everyone should continue to follow the guidance of the scientific community & local health authorities – and please remember to wear your masks.

.@ScottGottliebMD cautions that even if vulnerable Americans get vaccinated by the end of the year, they're "not going to have protective immunity until 2021," adding that a vaccine is "not going to affect the contours" of the next few months.
