May this sweet beautiful neighborhood, during its independence parade, remind that it can happen anywhere. All sorts of thoughts about gun violence, about how this was possible. But for now… Ways to help the kids & families of those who were lost: gofundme.com/c/act/donate-t…

I always say there’s no better place than my hometown for July 4th. The parade, bbq, fireworks. The neighbors, everyone together. And now this. A nightmare in the midst of so much good. In the town next to ours.

Love seeing this great work highlighted showing improved immunization timeliness with Kilkari mobile messaging service. Particularly valuable as we recover lost progress in protective routine vaccination for infants! Bravo @Amnesty_LeFevre, @bbcmediaaction, OPM and JHU teams!

What an immeasurable loss for the world. His fierce battle for health equity everywhere, for everyone, made him a teacher & hero for so many of us. His humor & humility were equally my favorite. May love and accompaniment ever more be the cornerstones for our care for all people.

I’m honored & humbled to be taking the baton as Acting CA Surgeon General from @DrBurkeHarris, a true visionary who’s galvanized a global movement for #ACEs & #ToxicStress, and my mentor & friend I'm so proud of what we've achieved—and to be leading our phenomenal team onwards💪🏾
Dr. Nadine Burke Harris@DrBurkeHarris

📢 I am filled with emotion as I share that my last day serving as CA Surgeon General will be February 11. I am incredibly proud to have been part of a team that, together, worked tirelessly to protect the health and well-being of all Californians at such a critical time.
