@eliowa This is why I am looking forward to the upcoming talk by fellow pediatricians (people smarter than me ;-) offered by ISTM later this month. Real info for clinicians. The line up looks terrific! learning.istm.org/products/covid… #VaccinesWork #COVID

What's next for children and COVID-19 vaccines? Pediatricians from around the world weigh in: #COVID #vaccines

With Delta, we saw that for every 4 deaths from COVID, a child lost a parent or caregiver — and losses were greatest for children of color. We expect the numbers to be even higher with Omicron. (3/5)

Tragically, we've all become numb to Covid's death toll. Sometimes it takes a tangible comparison to shake us out of complacency. I had such a moment today, when Covid deaths in the U.S. hit 875,000. That, as it happens, is the population of my city, San Francisco. Staggering.

@EricTopol This overnight success is 30 years in the making. Impressive to see so much basic science coalesce into the vaccines

This will go down in history as one of science and medical research's greatest achievements. Perhaps the most impressive. I put together a preliminary timeline of some key milestones to show how several years of work were compressed into months.

Masks remain a simple and effective way to reduce the spread of respiratory diseases. Medical masks are preferable to cloth masks.

@leggat_peter @_ISTM_ @jcu Indeed, COVID has occupied most travelers' minds however #Dengue remains a problem.

The pediatrics residency interview

We’re social creatures, we depend on each other, which is why we need a sense of concern for others’ well-being. Compassion is what’s important and you don’t have to be religious to practise it. Practising compassion here and now—living a meaningful life—is what is most important
