So as I'm sure you are all aware, the Omnikron variant is ravaging the country right now, with the United States breaking its alltime record for daily cases. Just this week, many people were thinking that we were sort of through the worst of this, and it's looking like that is just absolutely not the case. So many people I know have coveted so many people in various States that I know have coveted

This is a phenomenal swell. It really is. You know, I think there will be some people who have life experiences or lack of life experiences rather, who will say that this is cynical. This is cynical swell. Maybe that's because those people have not had the same kind of relationship with the government that you have had. I have had this relationship with the government since I was born because I'm a black person

It's a comfort to hear this conversation just because it really resonates with me on so many levels. And I want to just do a shout out to Charlie about the awareness we have of immune compromised people. I have the same feeling you do. More people have come forward in my life than I knew about before that really were at risk, and it really gives me pause. And you want to protect them
It just felt terrible to get that positive result, but there was no education, there was no support. There was no mental health support around that message of positive. Wow. I'm kind of fabricated by that, especially because I went to medical school. It's funny. One of the reasons I left medical school was that we weren't interested in healing people. We weren't interested in creating healthy, well, human beings. That wasn't what the prerogative was when I was in medical school
