“You inherit SORT and are the caretaker for a few years. And then you pass it on. You leave it better than you received it.” - Dan Brencic (RSPH ‘12). This is what has made ⁦@RollinsSort⁩ so special for the past 20 years. What a wonderful anniversary event tonight. ⁦

Sigh. With our family contributing to Georgia’s deep red color, I can say from unfortunate experience: flu is here EARLY and it’s no fun. Get your flu shots this weekend folks!!!

This is a very thoughtful thread on the importance of and value in structural and institutional investments in public health infrastructure over the long-haul. Can’t just be reactionary anymore.
This analysis is right on about our current state of pandemic preparedness, both in the US & globally. We currently rely on being reactive rather than proactive, and there's little appetite for solving the massive structural weaknesses in our public health systems.

When you work with staff or students who consistently come up with creative ideas for improving your program(s), you’ve hit the jackpot. My theme for this week…….for which I am very grateful. 🙏 @ECRC_

Last month, we took time in our August fellows retreat to acknowledge excellence. Excellence in public health practice; excellence among local public health practitioners in Georgia.

The @ECRC_ was started in 2020 to put our academic resources into the service of our @GaDPH and #LHD partners in GA for pandemic response. Through our programs and projects, I hope we have helped.

But to also use our resources and platform to say thanks…to start shining lights on practitioners who do so much with so little praise…that is a gap academia can certainly help fill. And so glad last month we did. 😊

Hot off the press: the first @FultonHealth Monkeypox epi report! Modeled after their weekly COVID report, this is another example of wonderful work of an @ECRC_ Rollins Epidemiology Fellow working with the rest of the great FCBOH epi team! #pracademics
