“You hear the stories about the health care workers — well we’re on the front lines, too. We’re doing something that’s bigger than what we can imagine right now.” Coronavirus Turns School Cafeterias into Soup Kitchens - The New York Times nytimes.com/2020/04/19/us/po…

Schools Transform Into ‘Relief’ Kitchens, but Federal Aid Fails to Keep Up (Published 2020)

Coming up with a #COVID19 #vaccine is kinda like a triathlon. Clinical trials are only the start, followed by the next event—manufacturing hundreds of millions of doses. The third event: distributing those doses to billions of people. This course is a lot longer than we realize.
