In this episode, Dr @StevenJSpear and I learn about how human creativity was unleashed to enable vaccinating 8K people/day, up from 2K/day in Jan, through relentless improvement.
And we explore how the lessons learned may inform how we can improve the overall healthcare system!

@StevenJSpear The things I learned from Trent Green, visiting the mass vaccination site here in Portland, or this interview were…
…some of the most hopeful & inspiring I’ve heard in years.
He describes how we can win this race to vaccinate everyone on planet, in shortest possible time.

@StevenJSpear Some pics from my amazing 3 hr visit to Portland Convention Center, run by our 4 regional health systems:
More pics to come, after I learn which I can post w/o violating patient HIPAA rules.
Imagine this vast 116K sq ft area where 1300+ people are vaccinated per hour, every day

@StevenJSpear That’s Trent Green in the middle, COO, SVP, at @OurLegacyHealth. On right is Chris Strear, MD, an emergency doctor, now Chief Medical Officer at Columbia Memorial.
Dr Strear spent decades improving flow in healthcare systems, and wrote this great book:

@StevenJSpear @OurLegacyHealth I describe what our 3 hour visit to the mass vaccination center was like midway thru the interview, and what we learned on how they created such a fast learning ramp.
On behalf of a very grateful populace, thank you to everyone who makes this happen, every day, since late Jan!

Here's a link to the wonderful @WillametteWeek article that described Oregon Convention Center mass vaccination as a "medical Disneyland", "like the best airport in the world," and "like a Swiss watch."
And they observe how everyone is smiling and happy.
