IDEA: have a SEPARATE line in every coffee shop for straight…COFFEE.

NO need to wait in line to hear the 7 minute order to the barista to make one godforsaken beverage. This is violence in a cup.

Cancel your NYE plans so we don’t have to cancel your moms surgery. Heartbreaking.

Just received this text from one of our hospitals. January is going to be a mess.

Get vaccinated/boosted, stay home if you can, wear a n95. Covid census went from 45 to 61 patients overnight. Doesn’t bode well since NYE hasn’t happened yet….

Tonight on my drive home from work, I received devastating news that a lifelong friend who I was classmates with from preschool all the way to our senior year in high school, died yesterday unvaccinated. This was her last text to me. I am truly gutted. I called her parents to pay my condolences. I cried, they cried. “We were thinking of you Krupali after she passed, since we wanted you to know, you’ve been friends since you were 3 years old….”

Dear Charlie Munger - this place looks like hell. Dorms need windows. Fresh air, light is important. independent.com/2021/10/28/arc…

My best friend from high school is still unvaccinated and their kid just had a bone marrow transplant and was diagnosed with Covid.

I can’t today. I am angry, horrified, sad, livid, and honestly - petrified for the kid, a kid who I met the day they were born.

We haven’t stayed in touch the past decade, but for the love of your kid, please get vaccinated.

Anti mask anti vaxx people who are attacking doctors and healthcare workers should be behind bars. …this kind of behaviors should never be acceptable… ever.

How is this not a requirement?

A person from Texas shouldn’t be speaking at a meeting in California. 👀 ..and yes this is happening:

This last week all the unvaccinated patients I’ve discussed the vaccine with have all refused and some have even laughed. These people also have cancer. Reasons such as “I don’t even get the flu shot” to “I’m not doing it”, have come up. I wish them all safety and health.

I’m old enough to remember the time Prince had 25 concerts for 25 dollars a ticket at the @TheForum and I went 7 days in a row. Can’t believe he’s been gone 5 years. His shows were magical. Magical. Whitney Houston, Sheila E, Stevie Wonder were some of the surprise guests I got to see on stage joining him. Every night was epic.

Does every single doctor in every single specialty ask if their patient or their patients family is vaccinated or is getting the vaccine? I urge you to ask the patient or the parents or the family bringing the patient in. Ask everyone.

Our voice matters SO MUCH right now. I urge you to help sign them up if you can.
Sometimes it’s easier to make it EASY for them.

I wear an n95 and face/eye protection whenever I am with any patient, or person. Non negotiable. I assume everyone is COVID19 + - it’s an ALL OUT defense game

I can actually see in my mind the Trump kids sitting with their dad watching this coup ensue on TV in some bunker and all laughing in glee. This is sadly what’s likely happening right now. “Dad! You did I it! You broke America, see they LOVE YOU”

My parents fled to America from Uganda due to a political coup in 1972- little did they know that a political coup would also follow them here. @michele_norris @om @sree @hari @mkraju
