      The first vaccine comes from Germany, from a company founded by first-generation immigrant families from Turkey. This vaccine is very, very good news.https://twitter.com/philipoltermann/status/1325774302491373569 …

      If you want to tell positive stories about immigration, look no further than the BioNTech vaccine: company co-founders Uğur Şahin and Özlem Türeci are both children of Turkish Gastarbeiter who came to Germany in the late 1960s. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/nov/09/covid-19-vaccine-candidate-effective-pfizer-biontech …

      We also have promising therapeutics on the way. Clinical management has improved. Lots of good news but... This coronavirus looks seasonal, like many other coronaviruses. Tough winter could be ahead before the breakthroughs get us out of this. Take care for a few more months.🧿

          Let's just hope that having a vaccine exit will make sacrifices for Thanksgiving and Christmas in hotspots more acceptable.

          Haven't seen my kids for almost 1 year (north vs south). No holidays together, sadly. But we all agreed that we need to survive so we can look back on this.

          It really seems to correlate on when people gather indoors over a year.
