I had to get a COVID test to go to an in-person meeting and it’s obvious that the testing requirements for travel, meetings, etc. are a confused quagmire.

If you are waffling on getting the vaccine, now is the time to get it.

At some point, the mental illness impact will be worse than the impact of COVID. I don’t know when we will get to that tipping point, but I suspect we will get there soon.

The reason that infection is spreading is that no one has an immunity to these new strains. It’s the reason measles devastated the Native American population when they were first exposed to travelers from the Old World. Immunity is our only hope.

I keep telling myself that we always have more courage and resilience than we give ourselves credit for, and that you don’t know what you are capable of doing until you are tested. This is the test.

Here is a new and disheartening post from Dr. Marissa Carter about the new COVID-19 variant.

Thank you CHI St Luke’s Hospital The Woodlands and the fantastic staff for a really efficient, friendly and positive experience. Let’s hope this is the turning point of the pandemic.

Dr. Marissa Carter has a new post about Pfizer’s mRNA COVID vaccine approval, which includes a long list of questions and answers. I have sent her my “wish list” for additional vaccine related articles!

Dr. Carter has a new post on the origins of COVID-19 on her website. It’s a fascinating read.

Dr. Carter has posted a new article on her own blog about COVID-19. “Things are not looking good in regard to the COVID-19 virus. Infection rates are totally out of control…“

Dr. Marissa Carter has posted a new blog about the latest COVID-19 news, including a vaccine update.

It’s going to be the end of 2020 before we have some preliminary reports of phase 3 trials. However, so far, the results are encouraging.

Most of us hope a vaccine could give us back life as we once knew it. Pay close attention, because the devil, as always, is in the details.

The near future is just one long wave.

If you were waiting for it to “be over”, then it’s time to start thinking instead about how we adjust to the new normal. 

In this guest blog by Dr. Marissa Carter, she urges clinicians who are involved in the treatment of COVID-19 patients to look at the data on dexamethazone.

It appears to guest blogger Dr. Marissa Carter that that the WHO has lost the plot when it comes to COVID-19.

In addition to getting a vaccine that works and has minimal side effects, we also have a vaccine credibility problem that is assuming global importance.

Check out this interview with our popular guest blogger, Dr. Marissa Carter, about the impact COVID-19 has had on research ethics.

My friend Marissa Carter’s COVID-19 infection rate model turned out to be far more accurate than the Harvard model (or other models). So when she sends me an email with permission to share it, you can bet it’s worth reading.

Food for thought from Guest Blogger Marissa Carter, PhD as we try to reopen the economy.

Here’s another guest blog by Dr. Marissa Carter. Sit down before you read it. You may want to pass this on!
