The front page of tomorrow's @dailytarheel – I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours. Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

Here’s the math: If the goal is to reach 80% of Americans vaccinated with a 2-dose #covid19 vaccine, it will take 10 years at our current pace. We are at 1 million vaccinations a week. To get to herd immunity by June 2021, we need to be at 3.5 million vaccinations a day.

Our nation was blessed to have @vivek_murthy as Surgeon General and will be blessed to have him in this role again.
Anyone curious about how HSAs work (like, a really simple, easy to understand, spot on read) then feast your 👀 on this. And in general just follow this man. I bet you’ll appreciate the way his brain works. – at Durham, NC
