Heading to LA to do a HDEEG with Tony for a @curesyngap1 supported #SYNGAP1 #biomarker study @UCLAHealth then meeting Drs COBA & @MarcellaBirtele at @KeckMedUSC. 🤞

Made it to #LAX on @SouthwestAir (thanks to iPads and @angrybirds). So many questions. Reminds me how much we don’t do with Tony because of #SYNGAP1. He’s sporting his @GlobalGenes backpack & @cureSYNGAP1 shirt.
SynGAPians are photosensitive so must remember 🕶. And they don’t really 😓 Sweat. So I brought a cooling vest. Didn’t think I’d need it to get to Lyft. I was wrong. He’s already done.

Haven’t done escalators for a while. Notice the in-toe on the ride down. #hypotonia #Syngap1

Now meeting #LAX travelers coming from Europe like Pam Jones who ARE getting screened for coronavirus at arrivals, indicating an emphasis on European travel by public health.

WHO recently declared Europe the epicenter of the pandemic. Image
Pam Jones, who was flying from Barcelona, said at #LAX she had a thermometer pointed at her head and was asked where she’d been. The screeners for CDC appeared to her to be EMT’s from Arizona.
Lines up with what I saw around 11 am — a procession of EMT’s going into Bradley (who declined to talk). I’ve asked CDC about screening and am waiting to hear back.

I’m hearing from #LAX passengers getting off of int’l flights that they’re not being screened for #coronavirus.

Some are surprised, others irritated like 70 yo Edgar Ocampo of Santa Barbara who just got back from the Philippines.

He says this disease know no boundaries.
Kylie West just flew back from a few days in Tokyo to catch her favorite electronica musician.

She said there’s a marked contrast between how seriously the Japanese are treating #coronavirus versus Americans
Grace General flew into LAX from Manila. She had a 7-hour layover in S. Korea where she was grilled on symptoms and whether she’s been to countries with #coronavirus outbreaks.

At #LAX, nothing.

The man in the seat across from me has taken HIS PANTS OFF for the flight and is just in his boxers. Flight attendants seem unconcerned. This is going to be a long flight @AirFranceFR #CDG to #LAX
He has also removed his socks.
He just shouted at a man who boarded with a ukulele (also have questions) to COME SIT WITH ME AND MAKE SOME MUSIC. Wtf is going on.
