Hatred on twitter!! I have not been commenting on this in my daily notes . However, the vitriol
and outright hatred towards me by the far right on Twitter is accelerating and is really
extraordinary. Greg Folkers describes it as a cesspool of hate against me. This is amplified by the
Fox News network who uses every opportunity particularly with Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity,
and Laura Ingraham who almost every night say something about me that is a total lie and would
under other circumstances be extremely libelous. This is part of the total movement of the “big
lie”. CNN with Don Lemon last night showed clips of former Vice President Pence, Minority
Leader Kevin McCarthy, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, and Lindsey Graham condemning
former president trump for being the instigating force behind the January 6th insurrection and
insisting that he be held responsible for this. Then Don Lemon fast-forwarded to their statements
recently in which they acted like January 6th never occurred. For example, former vice president
Pence said that January 6th was a creation and fabrication of the media . This is astounding that
these lies can be said without blinking an eye. I am concerned in some respects about myself
and my safety even though I have security. However, I am even more concerned about
whether our democracy will survive.
There had been some talk that countries such as the UK, EU, and Israel we're allowing people
who have recovered from COVID infection to be considered as equivalent to being vaccinated
and hence would be allowed to have a “green pass “. As it turns out that certainly is not the case
for the UK (see above – Chris Whitty) and recently Israel has also denied that that is the case for
them. However, post-infection people will need 1 dose of vaccine for a green pass. The new

measure will be introduced on the same date that anyone who has not received a booster shot six
months after getting a second vaccine dose will have their Green Pass revoked.

There has been considerable disagreement and discussion about whether the delta variant
is more severe in children compared to other variants. Certain studies showed that delta
variant appears to be more serious in adults compared to other variants; however, there is
disagreement about children. A recent study came out from the UK showing that severity of
illness was similar in children who were infected with the alpha variant compared to the delta
variant . See link below:

As booster discussions and disagreements continue, the Israeli data more and moire show that
my stance on boosters is correct. For example, it is becoming clear that boosters protect against
the waning immunity for infection and severe disease for individuals as young as 40 years old
and not just for individuals who are 65 years of age and older . See recent paper in preprint

Had very successful leadership forum today. Somewhat sentimental since it is Francis Collins’s last
leadership forum
