NEW: I prepared a memo for governors & local leaders on what to anticipate & “dos” and “don’ts” in Coronavirus response.

I thank the former FDA, CDC, and public health leaders who had a hand in this. This is an excerpt from the memo.

Circulate if you think helpful to others.
Things people (like Mike Pence) are starting to think about: cruise ships, airlines, nursing homes, schools, events, the economy

People still being ignored, but who are at risk: food workers, low income communities, homeless, communal living, assisted living (no infection ctrl)
Other places where attention needs to shift and hasn’t:

First responders, health care workforce, prison populations, disability community (always), ICU capacity, ventilator capacity. Medication and other clinical supplies. Uninsured. Family leave policies.
