Promoting the concept of “herd immunity” as an answer to COVID-19 is inappropriate, irresponsible & ill-informed. We strongly denounce the “declaration" that states this crisis can be controlled in the absence of critical public health measures. bit.ly/3iWoxSX

50.5% of women enrolled in medical school does not mean we are done in this quest for equity...not by a long shot. There’s a million things we have not done, just you wait! My commentary on @GoHealio today. @arghavan_salles @aoglasser @MayoGRIT
