More of the same. Things getting very testy with the press and the
Republicans blasting the Administration as having another “Katrina” with the H1N1 flu.
Still long lines and contradictory issues of ½ people do not want to vaccine because that
think it is not safe and ½ are waiting on line for it. Lose-lose from a PR standpoint.
Picture on page B1 of the Post (Metro Section) for the NIH-DC AIDS initiative. On
NBC Nightly News.

Nice dinner at Ambassador Nancy Brinker’s home (Ritz-Carlton Apartments in
Georgetown in honor of Mark Dybul. Nancy was Chief of White House protocol under
Pres. George W. Bush. Beautiful Apartment overlooking Georgetown and the Potomac

River. About 16 people. Nancy is the President /Director of the Susan G. Komen
Institute named after her sister who died of breast cancer. Nancy is now interested in
Global Health, particularly cancers (breast mostly) in women in developing countries.
Interesting guests. I particularly liked speaking with Kathleen Parker, syndicated
columnist and frequent Sunday News Show commentator and guest. Also, there were
Pamela Stevens (former White House Press person) and other global health people.
