Christopher Bouzy (spoutible.com/cbouzy) Agree. #Twitter is and was too passive about identifying hate speech, relying on AI that is unable to recognize hateful imagery or allusions. Why aren’t Twitter staff reviewing tweets that use racial slurs, harass POC, or use the anti-Semitic “TheNoticing” hashtag? Elon Musk

In the last month, nearly 90% of the deaths from Covid were in people age 65+ (16% of the US population). Their bivalent booster rate is less than 25%. Paxlovid use is low in seniors. A high % of these deaths are preventable. washingtonpost.com/health/2022/11… Ariana Eunjung Cha D Keating

This is my Giving Tuesday charity. Through the use of low-cost food and volunteers, every $1 you give becomes $10 of food and services. Volunteers are sweet and respectful to all. foodforalldc.org/donate

Walgreens has launched a new delivery service for the covid-19 oral antiviral therapy Paxlovid in partnership with DoorDash and Uber to get the treatment "directly to the doorsteps of those who need it." Read more in today's KHN #MorningBriefing. khn.org/morning-briefi…

Elon Musk This horrifying tweet further endangers Dr. Fauci, a dedicated public servant who has made important contributions to medicine and public health. If Elon Musk were intelligent, he would not tweet this garbage.

Elon Musk’s tweet attacking Anthony Fauci is the final straw for me. Twitter had been a good resource for learning from other researchers, but the anti-science disinformation coming from Elon Musk and others on the right is dangerous.

Silver line to Dulles is new. I took it to Dulles recently, had a relaxing ride, and paid $2. Taxi would’ve been $50-$60. Parking would’ve been $12-$19/day. Save money & read a novel: Take Metro to Dulles. #wmata #Silverline

Merck: Drop your groundless lawsuit. Every other business in America expects to negotiate prices with buyers. Allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices is long overdue. Merck

Jessica Silver-Greenberg 🕵🏻‍♀️ Katie Thomas Robert Gebeloff Virginia Hughes David Enrich Kudos to NYTimes reporters for excellent journalism. Medicare.gov, private insurers, & state medical boards must protect patients from harmful and unnecessary procedures. U.S. FDA should demand post-approval safety & effectiveness research for these devices. Dr. Robert M. Califf

Vice President JD Vance CDC U.S. FDA Help! The vaccines.gov website is not working. It claims there are no updated COVID-19 vaccines within 100 miles, although local drugstores have the updated vaccine and are accepting appointments. CDC Director People's CDC

Joe Biden Dear President Biden: You should be proud of your legacy. For the good of our country, please announce that you will not run in 2024. The polls show that you will lose to Trump and other potential GOP candidates. The risk of authoritarians taking over is too high. 🇺🇸

.@eleanornorton President Donald J. Trump Vice President JD Vance The current moment presents an opportunity for the federal government to lead the way by ending solitary confinement and creating incentives for states and localities to do the same. Help pass the End Solitary Confinement Act. p2a-files.s3.amazonaws.com/production/cam…

Another day in Congress doing our “Black jobs.”

Democratic Governors Please advise Pres. Biden that he needs to stop running for reelection. Polls have long shown that voters are concerned about his age and fitness for office. Recent polls show Trump is leading in battleground states. We need a younger and more compelling Dem. candidate.

A shocking failure of MD leadership to protect hospital patients and staff at Clifton Perkins Hospital. Doctors and AFSCME repeatedly notified MD of the risks. State government culture must change: Listen to workers and their unions. Governor Wes Moore wapo.st/4eZb5es

Physician-Senators: If you speak out against Sec. RFK Jr.’s decision to fire all 17 experts from CDC’s vaccine advisory committee, you can get RFK Jr. to reverse this harmful action. Your voters need your leadership. U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. Senator Rand Paul Dr. Roger Marshall Sen. John Barrasso

Time to fire RFK Jr. POTUS had the foresight to spend billions developing vaccines against COVID-19 at warp speed. The ignorant and arrogant Secretary of HHS, RFK Jr., is endangering all of us with his anti-vaccine & anti-science quackery. #FireRFKJr President Donald J. Trump House Republicans Senate Republicans
