ICYMI, I had a fantastic conversation with @ezraklein on his @voxdotcom podcast. At the end, he asked me to recommend three books that have influenced me, and I wanted to share them here as well. As a study on leadership, I recommend “Master of the Senate” by Robert Caro. 1/
Which country has the world's best healthcare system? @ZekeEmanuel wrote the book comparing them and, in this podcast, I force him, against objections, to give me his true answer. vox.com/podcasts/2020/6/23/2…

W/ this Admin AWOL on providing clear direction, it’s been hard to decide what’s OK as we open up. There's no right answer; you just need to know the risks. So, @SaskiaPopescu, @DrPhillipsMD, and I developed a COVID-19 Risk Index. Please share this widely. ezekielemanuel.com/writing/a…

Over 1/3 of reported deaths in the US from Covid-19 have occurred in nursing homes, and it’s unfortunately not hard to guess why. In this episode of @MakeTheCallPod, we discuss with guest @DrJoanneLynn: How should we care for older people? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

In Taiwan today, kids go to school and the athletes are playing baseball. Meanwhile, the U.S. has 1,500X as many Covid-19 deaths as Taiwan per capita. What can we learn from them? We explore in @STATnews: statnews.com/2020/06/30/taiw… THREAD 1/4

Congrats to Oklahomans for voting to expand Medicaid. Their ordeal to get what ACA promised a 10 yrs ago shows that Medicaid should be a uniform, nat'l program so everyone is covered. Can be part of "grand bargain" with states as @RahmEmanuel and I wrote. nytimes.com/2020/06/15/opini…

Surgical masks are more effective than cloth face coverings. Other countries have produced enough for the public as well as for health care workers and have kept prices low or given them out free to the public. Why can't the United States do this?

Sorry Scott — this question makes me sad for our profession.

Giving unproven drugs as if they were skittles crushes our reputation as people-of-science #COVID19 or not.

Because I suppose this point can't be emphasized enough:
"It's a really bad idea to open up WITHOUT A PLAN (so we need a plan)" is a very different argument than "we need to stay in lockdown for 18 months".

Help stop the domino chain of #COVID19 infection. Stay home. Wash your hands. When out for essential trips, wear a cloth face covering, and keep at least 6 feet of distance between yourself and others. bit.ly/3aVQc3g
