Dec. 7, 2022 I stood for many dozens of photographs of 1-on-1 with members of NIAID who wanted to say good-bye. Very moving.

    Dec. 4, 2022 Wonderful afternoon at the White House and evening at the Kennedy Center. Actor George Clooney, singer-songwriter Amy Grant, singer Gladys Knight, composer Tania León and rock group U2 were celebrated as the Kenney Center Awards. I was the guest of secretary Becerra at a White House reception with the President that occurred at 3:30 PM before we all motorcaded to the Kennedy Center for the ceremonies of the awards. It was a star-studded evening and I had pleasant conversations with people some of whom I had met before such as Julia Roberts, Sean Penn, Matt Damon, Mike Ferrone, among many others. It was a spectacular event mixing entertainment with honoring the honorees. The situation was somewhat unusual as I was completely swamped with people yelling my name and applauding it as I left the vehicle in front of the Kennedy Center and walked that long red carpet walk to the theater. There must have been hundreds of people lined up behind a rope down area and I was amazed how this recognition of me has reached such a height. I am certainly not getting a big head about it but it is rather weird and a little bit unnerving. Joked with Hunter Biden as we shook and hands and hugged. He said if someone snapped a photo and put it on line, the internet "would explode" given we are both being attacked by the far right GOP

    Dec. 6, 2022 A very touching tribute and "good-bye" to me by the AAI Council. I regularly for 38 years on an annual basis address the council here in Bethesda, they gave me a very warm last meeting with a prolonged standing ovation as I walked into the room. Terrific evening at Jeff Zients's home. He had a reception on the occasion of making available online the tapes of conversations between Richard Stengel (Editor of Time Magazine) and Nelson Mandela. Mandela attended Jeff and Mary's wedding as did Richard. Had nice conversation with Merrick Garland and I encouraged him that we have faith in his judgment and integrity to do the right thing regarding the issues with Trump. Also, finally saw in person Katy Kay who has interviewed me multiple times virtually over the years for the BBC PRESS: BBC New "American Politics" TV; IDSA Podcast with Carlos Del Rio; NBC "Nightly News" exit interview with Lester Holt; Interview with Medline Plus magazine; WTOP Exit interview Podcast; ABC Australian TV "7:30"; KNXV TV (ABC, Scripps, Phoenix)

    Dec. 8, 2022 1he United States [CDC] ® Total Cases: 99,241,649 7-Day average: 65,569 (+49.6%6) * Total Deaths: 1,080,472 7-Day average: 426 (+61.7%) * Total new hospital admissions: 5,605,899 7-Day average 4,855 (413.8%) Worldwide [WHO] - most recent day ¢ Total Cases: 642.924 560 (304,100 new) * Total Deaths: 6,625,029 (624 new) : HEALTH We had our 9th annual meeting today with Bill Gates in the context of the NIH-Gates Foundation collaboration on multiple projects. In the course of the meeting they showed to my surprise film clips of Bill Clinton, Tedros, and Slim and Quarraisha Karim thanking me for my many years of service. I should comment here on the really close relationship that I've developed over the years with Bill Gates and the mutual respect we have for each other. We also joined by the common issue of the conspiratorial theorists out there who think that Bill and I are doing strange things like putting chips in the vaccines that we're trying to get them to receive. It's the source of fun jokes between Bill and me. Senator Richard Burr (R-NC) called me today to wish me well and to tell me how much he has enjoyed over the years working with me. He congratulated me for my "extraordinary service to our nation over decades". Four astronauts visited the Clinical Center today and the Children's Inn. The said that the one "must thing" that they wanted was to meet me and so I went over to the Medical Board meeting on the 4th Floor and met with and took photos with them: Thomas H. Marshburn, Kayla Barron, Matthias Maurer, Mark T. Vande Hei Just met with the German Minister of Health Karl Lauterbach who has become somewhat of a friend in that every time he is in DC he wants to come and see me. He values my advice and says that I am a "rock star" in Germany. Also, at the meeting was German Ambassador to USA Emily Haber.
