Joel Szabat who was the acting Secretary of DoT during the trump administration asked
me to say a few words to his group at the Department of Transportation at his last COVID
meeting with them. Joel is really a good guy and he was so pleased that I took the time to pipe
in by zoom to his last meeting and congratulate him and all the Department of Transportation
workers for the good work that they did during the COVID outbreak. I was extraordinarily well
received by the group for taking the time out to join them and to congratulate them on their good
work.

I also have been doing on a regular basis the principals meeting as well as our resuming on
a more regular basis the White House press briefings. I have not mentioned these in previous
notes but they are occurring on a regular basis. Today I briefed the principles on the rationale for
the BA .5 bivalence booster shots.
