This is a big deal. For too long NYC has not received its fair share of public health funding due to city-state political hijinks. No more. This means upwards of $90M that will go towards keeping NYers healthy and safe and prepared. Thank you @governor.ny.gov @lynn4nyc.bsky.social @mayor.nyc.gov

This year, we honor Dr. Matthew Nock, whose groundbreaking research on suicide and self-harm is reshaping prevention. He’ll be joined by Dr. Christine Cha (Yale) and Dr. Ilana Gratch (Weill Cornell), with a roundtable moderated by Dr. Ashwin Vasan. Register now: childmind.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Strong voices led the discussion: - @ashvasnyc.bsky.social: “Healthcare requires leadership” - Jeannette Ickovics @yalesph.bsky.social : “Cities have more power than they know” + insights from @rockefellerfdn.bsky.social @lancetcountdown.bsky.social & Mexico City Read the report: lnkd.in/dBrnmNVF

Well said @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social Add to the list the shooting at the @cdcgov.govmirrors.com. Horrific scenes from Utah today. Regardless of his divergent views, no one deserves the fate #CharlieKirk suffered today. Political violence is an attack on all of us.

Very excited to join @meganranney.bsky.social and the @yalesph.bsky.social and @yalejackson.bsky.social teams as they tackle the biggest challenges in health, policy, and global affairs. Let’s go!

Thoughts on the tragic events @cdcgov.govmirrors.com. Love and support to all public health workers.

The federal government's cuts to Medicaid won’t just hit balance sheets, they will devastate lives. But we are not helpless. And New York is uniquely positioned to chart a bold path forward, if we choose to act. My latest in @nydailynews.com www.nydailynews.com/2025/07/18/n...

My friend Nirav Shah wrote a wonderful piece about our work to improve health in NYC, despite the political headwinds. See here in @cityandstateny.bsky.social www.cityandstateny.com/opinion/2025...

I wrote this as a set of principles and not in response to every EO and freeze as announced…but the point remains, time for states and cities to step up for health, because the Feds won’t for the next 4 yrs. Thx @timemagazine.bsky.social for putting this out on RFKs big day time.com/7210584/trum...

Hey POTUS it is possible to “review” programs without stopping them completely. PEPFAR is a crown jewel in global health and this will definitely cost lives as people cannot stay on their meds. TOTALLY needless and cruel. But I guess that’s the point. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/27/h...

Ok Ben Johnson is good. #GoBears

How do I pin this tweet?

The Bears are, I think, the worst-coached professional sports team I’ve…ever seen?

Just heading home from Faster Cures conference in DC. Great speakers, including many past & present federal health agency leaders and politicians. But quote of the week goes to Ashwin Vasan (ex-Health Commissioner, New York): “Health is Freedom!” Well said.

RFK Jr’s nomination is a mistake. HHS is too important to American healthcare, prevention, child welfare, and global health, to appoint a leader who has made a career on misguided views on science, medicine and wellbeing. It makes us less healthy and less safe. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/r...
