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/

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/all-ar…
"With these institutions, we face this terrible irony. So many people who made the difficult decision to move a loved one into a nursing home so they can receive better care have now had to watch as these nursing homes turned into ground zero for a deadly pandemic." @pennprof
"[long-term planning] is a structural problem in the way we have created politics. And maybe we're going to have to change politics so that this focus on the present is not so important" @ZekeEmanuel on this week's Making the Call podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mak…
"Crises focus the mind in a way that normal life tends not to." @ZekeEmanuel podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mak…
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/podcast/are…
Amy Guttman in conversation with Moreno right now, discussing her experience on Obama's bioethics commission. She's talking about how they were able to come to unanimous consensus decision, which made it more likely policy makers would listen. #WCB2020
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/tai… 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/opi…
Outbreaks in nursing homes have been one of the most heartbreaking elements of the #COVID19 pandemic. On today's episode, @ZekeEmanuel and @pennprof discuss the #bioethics and lessons from pandemic for elder and end-of-life care podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mak…
This week's episode dives into all things higher ed: when will it really be safe to go back to school? #covid19 @ZekeEm @pennprof podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/whe…
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?
We stand with our black colleagues, clients, partners and allies today and every day. We see you and are committed to taking actionable steps that bring lasting change.
We're always looking for new sources of inspiration, and @Tallberg aims to provoke people to think & act differently about the global issues that are shaping our present and our future. Check out their podcast: newthinking.world #nowmorethanever #newthinking
Great advice from Zeke Emanuel from @MakeTheCallPod and @Morning_Joe: get outside for your mental health. @SumnerSaitz and I are walking and cycling everyday, too! 🚴 🚴♀️

Let’s not give too much air time to the minority of people who don’t want to wear masks or social distance. Most people are doing what they can to protect their families and communities, and I think that unity of purpose is much more notable.

Thinking back to how I might have expected things to unfold a few weeks ago, it seems like we're in neither the best-case scenario or worst-case scenario but somewhere in between. FWIW, here are the things I've gotten more optimistic about. Pessimistic stuff in the next tweet.

Calling into @CNN now. Tune in.
This is a critical point. We don't test for influenza, unless you are severely ill, for a reason: It's too widespread to matter.
Someday people will stop getting duped by how many tests the US is doing now, but weren't do any when it counted
Yes, this is what strict contact tracing and isolation look like. And it becomes more feasible as fewer cases surface. It still requires great cooperation and raises difficult human rights issues. It's not an end game in and of itself, but it's a proven containment strategy.
