Great post from @ATabarrok on the importance of rolling out malaria vaccines ASAP: it's obscene to treat >1000 daily deaths as an acceptable "status quo" rather than an (ongoing) emergency.

I've known Rahile many years. I worked for her as a translator & we spent many hours discussing everything under the sun.
I learned so much from her. I consider her a good friend. She was one of my recommenders for grad school.
And now she's gone. Her crime—being born a Uyghur.

I was sad to learn today that my friend & @8VC partner lost his uncle to COVID-19 in India. The pandemic is getting worse there, and they need more vaccines.
In honor of his family, I will donate $50 for every re-tweet, up to $125,000 USD, to help with efforts in India. (1/2)
