    August 23, 2022 at 7:10 p.m. EDT With all of the praise and adulation that I'm getting from so many sources, the far right GOP keep saying that they're going to investigate me after I stepped down even though there's absolutely nothing to investigate me about; they are looking very mean spirited.

    August 24, 2022 The number of texts and e-mail of thanks and praiseupon the announcement of my stepping down are stunning, ranging in the several hundreds.

We have been friends for many years. I respect him dearly and greatly. He's an incredible scientist, amazing human being and congratulations to him for all the job that he has done. I know retirement doesn't mean he will stop working. Retiring for him is like changing a tyre, meaning another mission, and I look forward to continue working with him closely through other things he will, I know, continue to do. So, I wish him all the very best. Tony is so special and everybody knows, I think. With COVID, we are still doing worse with deaths than any other country: Cumulative confirmed COVID-19 deaths per million people in the last 12 months Due to varying protocols and challenges in the attribution of the cause of death, the number of confirmed deaths may not accurately represent the true number of deaths caused by COVID-19. wc 1,200 United States 1,000 Italy - United Kingdom Germany Spain France Z Mexico > Australia -- Brazil _ _ South Korea ge ~-- Canada oa Taiwan South Africa ee = SA 0 = ---- T T ug 30,2021 Nov1,2021

    August 29, 2022 Previous 2 days my daughters and partners were here for the weekend. Very slow with regard to COVID. Clearly people like John Moore (who is the most reasonable) and Paul Offit (not so much) are pushing back on the drive to boost people in September with the "updated" BA.5 bivalent since they say that boosters are not needed (Offit) or that the original vaccine is as good as the bivalent (Moore) Ashish Jha called me today asking advice on when to give the POTUS the bivalent BA.5 boost. I told him 3 months after his recent infection. Same for the First Lady. ------- Monkeypox cases starting to plateau - probably a combination of behavioral modification + vaccine availability: Monkeypox: Daily confirmed cases 7-day rolling average los 1,000 World United States Or + ; r r May 12,2022

I told him I cannot talk about this until I actually step down. ------ I received a phone call today, former vice president Richard Cheney congratulating me on my career and thanking me for all that I have done over the decades that I had been in public service. We went on to reminisce about the things we did together to take away the creation of project bioshield. I told him how impressed I was with what his daughter lives was doing and pushing back against the extreme right and the trump people. He is obviously very proud of her and expressed that.
