1/ I was planning to write the usual “health weather report” this week. But after what happened over the weekend, that didn’t feel right. The U.S. just experienced the deadliest mass shooting in more than two years, and no one is talking about it. But this NEEDS to be talked about🧵
Many congratulations to all of these amazing scholars. Our field is so rich due to their work and that of many others.
