In many regions, it’s much more difficult to schedule an appointment if you don't have access to the internet. One state is even flat-out refusing to allow undocumented workers with high-risk jobs to get prioritized for vaccination. propub.li/38pVaWW

(1/3) The sudden passing of Dean John M. Daly, '73, MD, FACS, is shocking and heartbreaking for our LKSOM community. Dr. Daly's remarkable career as our dean, a master surgeon, educator, and leader has had a profound impact on all of us. We are all deeply saddened by his loss.

NEW: Our analysis suggests that CA's equity algorithm may leave millions of needy Californians without additional vaccines because of one choice: using ZIP codes rather than census tracts to allocate additional vaccine. Details on our blog. Also, a 🧵. aclunc.org/blog/californi…

I’ve been talking to Jordan Henderson, on and off, for the last three months or so. We talked a lot about captaincy and responsibility, but also about the Super League and player welfare and equality and the NHS and abuse. He has a lot to say. nyti.ms/3wsfhgu

Surgery is a necessity. Yet, it is often unavailable in low- and middle-income countries. There was a time when basic surgical care wasn’t available in southeast Liberia. Learn how PIH Liberia is changing that:bit.ly/3FCLgB5
