Very glad to see that the CDC ACIP now recommends two doses of COVID-19 vaccines for Immunocompromised and even allows a third dose under shared clinical decision making. I’m telling transplant, patients to get a COVID-19 vaccine every six months.

Thank you for being you, a force of nature and a wonderful role model. You selflessly shared your time and wisdom with anyone in need. A dedicated clinician/scientist, a gifted dancer, and outstanding friend. We are all fortunate to have worked with you. I will always miss you.
It is with profound sadness that @UNMC_ID announces the passing of Dr. Diana Florescu. We remember her tenacity, grit, kindness, determination, and a positive energy that lit up every room, especially the ballroom when she danced. We miss her. bit.ly/3j99tb6
