Disheartening: "A $400 million rescission of federal health department funds in 2023 caused layoffs of over 700 contact tracers essential to #syphilis control." A robust #workforce is critical to achieving our public health goals.πŸ’ͺπŸ’‰πŸ¦ πŸ“‰πŸ‘Άβš•οΈ nytimes.com/2024/07/25/opi…

πŸ‘€Interesting:⬆️U.S. State Restrictions associated with⬇️Excess COVID-19 Pandemic Deaths. (Could be confounding: perhaps states with populations more likely to wear masks and vaccinate were also more likely to have these restrictions imposed.) πŸ˜·πŸ’‰πŸ¦ πŸ“‰ jamanetwork.com/journals/jama-…

Such a treat to meet with Rhode Island Senator ⁦⁦Senator Jack Reed⁩, a huge champion of ⁦Fogarty at NIH⁩. Sweet to reminisce about the legacy of my mother, RI energy czar and established the policy framework for the first USA offshore windmills off Block Island.

Fogarty is saddened by news of the passing of NBA basketball player and humanitarian, Dikembe Mutombo. Originally from #DRC, he served as a member of Fogarty's Advisory Board from 2003-2006.
