Dear Community,
I feel like we're in the middle of a sci-fi movie that's happening in different stages, in different acts, in different parts of the country and the world. Here in the Bay Area it's starting to feel very real. Like we're starting Act 2.
My heart goes out for all those affected, from those who are sick, to the medical professionals and those in self-quarantine, to the people who have poured so much into events that are cancelled and all the people who are losing work because of it.
There are a lot of interesting ways in which what we're going through on a global scale is illuminating our strengths as humans, our weaknesses, and ultimately, our interdependence.
My brother, Dr. Jordan Shlain, has been working with patients at the frontlines and has been releasing a very helpful dispatch with insights and information (link below), including this chart.
