1/ cw: COVID-19 Talk (a 🧵)
On Saturday evening, Wangaratta Hospital had its first positive COVID-19 patient.

One lesson learned (that I completely agree with) from Dr. Box - “the strategic National Stockpile was never designed/ intended to provide supplies to the entire country, for a prolonged period of time.”
We must figure out local redistribution and surge planning for future.

More from Dr. Box- “at this time last year we’d have been ecstatic to have been assured of one vaccine with 50% efficacy by this point in 2021. Instead we had 2 vaccines with >90% efficacy by December. This is a National success story. “

Unfortunately no time & bandwidth; but putting this out there

Yesterday again, a physician engaged me then seemly regretted the reply
deleted non-factual replies
unfortunate that there is such poor training on #Scicomm that folks do not understand that deleting is not protection
