Had my usual Zoom meeting with Sir Chris Whitty from UK. WE have become longdistance friends over these couple of years. He mentioned that I have the support of the UK and global medical and scientific community. I should definitely include a discussion about my relationship with Chris and with Patrick Vallance in the book. PRESS: Global News Canada (TV); Nov. 11, 2022 Exciting day. In preparation for the installing of my "living portrait' by Hugo Crosthwaite into the National Portrait Gallery tomorrow, there was a gala celebration at the home of Jeff Bezos 2330 S Street, NW.

It was the highest level of AAA list you could imagine in Washington DC. There was a red carpet entry to the gallery which resembled the red carpet entry into the Academy Awards with multiple TV and
