Promoting the concept of “herd immunity” as an answer to COVID-19 is inappropriate, irresponsible & ill-informed. We strongly denounce the “declaration" that states this crisis can be controlled in the absence of critical public health measures. bit.ly/3iWoxSX

As ID physicians on the front line of combating the current global crisis, we stand strongly against @POTUS's decision to leave @WHO. We will not succeed against this pandemic, or any future outbreak, unless we stand together, share information, and coordinate actions.

#Ivermectin has not been proven to treat COVID-19, and it can cause harm. The doses needed to possibly work against COVID-19 in a test tube are 50-100x HIGHER than current recommended doses, an amount not safe in humans. #IvermectinIsNotForCOVID 📄: bit.ly/3mOqRj8

Reports of a campaign to discredit and diminish the role of Dr. Fauci at this perilous moment are disturbing. If we have any hope of ending this crisis, all of America must support public health experts, including Dr. Fauci, and #StandWithScience. #AmericaNeedsFauci
