Stay home as much as you can and practice social distancing. Doing so will allow health professionals, first responders, and others who can't stay home to keep our systems running and help those who need it. #FlattenTheCurve wapo.st/corona-simulat…

Science continues on! Our latest paper is out in @eLife by Kaitlyn Sun finding that endogenous itaconate is not required for particulate matter-induced NRF2 expression or inflammatory response doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

COVID-19 is not the “Chinese virus." It is a worldwide pandemic. My administration stands with the Asian community in rejecting these falsehoods and racism. Chicago’s response to this pandemic will be determined by science and compassion, not fear and bigotry.

At the Illinois governor’s COVID-19 press conference yesterday, @UChicagoMed’s Dr. Emily Landon spoke on the urgency of this moment—and the small sacrifices each of us can make to save lives.⤵️ youtube.com/watch?v=kHUuWq… @emilymicheleL

What is "social distancing" and should I be doing it? Should I be stocking up on groceries and medication? What should I do if I think I'm infected? Infectious diseases expert Dr. @emilymicheleL answers the most common #COVID19 questions. ms.spr.ly/6017TjYtb

Accidental twinning in the lab today!

The patient admitted Monday night for possible COVID-19 infection has tested negative for the disease. A shout-out to the clinical team who cared for the patient while we awaited test results from the Illinois Department of Public Health.
