I am the sum of every book I read, every river I swam in, and every train I waved at.

4500 years of building compressed in a single frame. The new areas are uninspiring and won’t last as long.

Cairo: I have yet to come across another city in the world that feels like Delhi from landing to the design of the airport to the pollution to getting to the hotel (and the security and rooms) ❤️

In case you were wondering where the U.S. stands on slavery

I stood in front of this exhibit at the CDC Museum in Atlanta.

It feels surreal to see COVID-19 as museum history when the memory is still so raw.

I’ve followed emerging infectious diseases my whole life, from HIV/AIDS to hantavirus to SARS to Ebola, and the last panel always hits different when you lived through it.

The most deadly animal in human history is the mosquito though thankfully none are six feet tall like this one at the CDC.

I got to spend a day with the extraordinary people behind the agency: virus hunters, infectious disease doctors, research scientists, and global health policy experts.

I’m in Atlanta today and I’m not looking forward to this. If any third world country had airports with 4-5 hour lines for the security screening, there would be travel advisories not to travel to that country.

Enjoyable movie though probably 30 minutes too long. Parts of the middle and end could’ve been edited. Loved watching it with the 14 year old. Ryan Gosling is awesome in this. Comparisons to Interstellar and the Martian are inevitable.

All right. Let’s do this. Project Hail Mary time.
