Do you believe (like I do) that precision health is ready for prime time? That actionable genomic information can make a difference in patient outcomes today? Please join us at the Illumina Genomics Forum to hear more! illumina.com/events/genomics…
Pretty cool - I just heard I’m in the running for Modern Healthcare’s top 100 influencers. Please vote, friends!
Many thanks @esteeneuwirth for discovering the list.

At Providence, our many researchers are truly shaping the future of health and health care. Our new report highlights some of their exciting work. Read the Providence Research Network 2021 Annual Report today! provhealth.org/6013buOa9
I can't think of a year where it's more important to tell all of the doctors you know thank you. It's been a tough year, please send them gratitude and love. #NationalDoctorsDay
This #IWD2022, let's #breakthebias that women can do it all in #healthcare. Our workforce is 77% women. The staffing crisis is a women's workforce crisis. If we support a female-dominated workforce, we need policies that keep women working. ms.spr.ly/6012ww7AA
I'm so proud of our @providence team! This #data helps us identify differences by vaccine type and inform who needs to get their #COVIDBooster and when they should do so to avoid severe breakthrough infections. ms.spr.ly/6017wVSV5
February is #AmericanHeartMonth and we’re raising awareness of how heart disease affects women differently. Learn how heart disease impacts women and marginalized communities and find ways to keep your heart healthy: provhealth.org/6018wMavM
On this World Day of the Sick, let us focus our #prayers on the afflicted and those #healthcareworkers who have worked so tirelessly to ease their suffering and heal their pain.
#Blockchain can be used to speed up administrative processes in #healthcare, giving us more time to focus on patients. I'm so proud to see @providence among these companies featured in @Forbes. ms.spr.ly/6012wEwau
Thank you, @BeckersHR, for including me. It takes a team of teams with clinicians leading to innovate care delivery in #healthcare. ms.spr.ly/6011w6dJ3
After this pandemic, I hope we fund preventative #mentalhealth care for children and make #primarycare accessible for everyone in the USA like it is in other countries. Watch @CNN now: ms.spr.ly/6015ZCD3x
The Omicron variant is keeping #healthcare workers out of #hospitals. We’re canceling surgeries and delaying care for people who need it. BUT Omicron is less severe. For people who are vaccinated and boosted, it feels more like a cold. Watch @CNN now: ms.spr.ly/6018ZqFhe
My healthcare wishes for 2022:
1. Legit science drowns out conspiracy theories;
2. Practical, effective information drowns our drama and hype;
3. Understanding that health inequities (think vaccine access across the globe) puts us all at risk.

Remember that we have the tools to stop this pandemic. Get the #covidvaccine, wear your mask, avoid large crowds, and do antigen tests with your family before you gather for the holidays. Watch @CNN now: ms.spr.ly/6012ZrSBG
Gathering for the holidays? Stock up on antigen tests, pass them out at the door before sitting for hours over a cozy meal. Avoid creating a new family legend: “Remember our superspreader Christmas 2021…..?

IMPORTANT:
RAPID TESTS DO WORK WITH OMICRON
"But why are some people staying negative in the first days they have symptoms??"
This is expected. Symptoms don't = contagious virus
This is literally a reflection of the fact that vaccines are doing their job!
PLEASE READ
We're learning more about the #omicronvariant every day and our advice isn't changing. The tools we have and the same things we've been doing, like wearing a mask when we're in a crowd, can protect us from this strain of the virus. Watch @CNN now: ms.spr.ly/6018khudQ
Delta is still around and surging in parts of the country. We need people to be vaccinated. The fewer vaccinated people, the more #COVID19 will circulate in our communities, and the more likely we will see new variants like #omicron. ms.spr.ly/6011k0WA5

We don't have enough scientific evidence yet to answer critical questions about the #OmicronVariant but anecdotal evidence is providing a little hope, according to Dr. @amyleecp3 who also wants everyone to get their #COVIDVaccination & #COVIDBooster shots NOW.
