Thank you @hartfordcourant for allowing to share my experience as a pregnant high-risk OB and important facts about pregnancy during #Covid_19. @ACOGAction @MySMFM @NationalMedAssn @THOfNewEngland @JahanaHayesCT @ChrisMurphyCT @SenBlumenthal @NedLamont
I am proud of the work my colleagues are doing despite the limited availability of potentially lifesaving gear, writes @DrVeroPimentel. But I never thought the U.S. would be this badly prepared to respond efficiently and safely to a public health pandemic. bit.ly/2UXoZIa
I do agree. While Lamont has done a solid job, places like golf courses and gun stores, construction should be shut down. As well as a statewide parks ban.
Editorial: With no sign of the coronavirus curve flattening in Connecticut, it is time for @GovNedLamont to look at what has worked elsewhere and impose more restrictive guidelines to slow the spread and buy our medical professionals more time to prepare bit.ly/3dSNkGo
"One of the most important things the state can do today is to allow voters to cast ballots through the mail, an incredibly sensible move at any time but now absolutely necessary." courant.com/opinion/editor…
"We are severely under-testing across the state, & our ability to resume a normal way of life is contingent on our ability to increase testing everywhere. We also know that our state still lags in lab capacity to process COVID-19 tests. Both problems must be fixed, immediately."
There are no easy solutions in the face of the #COVIDー19 pandemic. But there are four reasons why containing the coronavirus requires more widespread testing, not less. Akhil Upneja (@AkhilUpneja) & Howard Forman (@thehowie) of @Yale, @YaleSPH explain: bit.ly/2WAPfJk

"We must expect more from our elected officials. We must set the example,” stated state Sen. Mae Flexer, D-Killingly, in 2018. Flexer enjoys a platform to examine and judge actions of others, but is she living up to her own standards? asks @DailyRuctions bit.ly/2IgHhgp

"Access to Senate deliberations is our First Amendment right. It is not a privilege to be doled out by the Senate at its discretion." -- UConn Law Professor Hillary Greene
The First Amendment protects not only the public’s right to speak about the impeachment but also to learn about it by witnessing full Senate proceedings...The burden is not on the people wanting access. We shouldn’t even have to ask, writes Hillary Greene bit.ly/2RZaAIq
@campbellsl this is exquisite! Thank you for writing it! I think I will send it to my 2 adult sons as a hint for them to remove their boxes of “detritus” from our attic. It will give them a reason tocome visit their aging parents, 1 of whom is collecting broken clocks to repair.
Mark repairs antique clocks. Now those devices seem almost beside the point. Time keeps ticking and we have phones to mark it, which rule our lives in a way clocks didn’t. Take time to read @campbellsl column on stopping time—or at least slowing it down. bit.ly/38fSRmP
@9Moyle @CourantOpinion I learned from this that there is no such thing as a "grandmother" or "grandfather" clock. They're called "tall clocks." Isn't that interesting?
