Por que doenças como HIV e malária, que ainda matam milhões de pessoas por ano, não são consideradas pandemias? – “HIV e AIDS, tuberculose e malária não deveriam ser classificadas ‘somente’ como epidêmicas ou endêmicas. Elas são pandemias que foram superadas pelos países ricos.”

"HIV, TB, and malaria shouldn’t be labeled as “just” epidemics or endemic. They are pandemics that have been beaten in rich countries. Allowing them to persist elsewhere is a policy choice and a budgetary decision"https://t.co/MVCS960cN5

The Case for Mandating COVID-19 Vaccines for Health Care Workers https://t.co/pdaBRZdkfG via @AnnalsofIM "The case for mandating SARS-CoV-2 vaccines for health care workers is substantially stronger than the case was for mandating influenza vaccines." I fully agree.
