Hey, #TeamMuskox, a good friend trained as a meteorologist (with a PhD) who shifted to health data science during COVID was working as a federal contractor on racial disparities in maternal-fetal health outcomes, and he just lost his job. If you know of any remote data science positions, hit me up!

Other take-homes: the vast majority of Americans believe global warming is happening, and a majority have become more concerned (including a majority of Republicans). All our hard work and conversations are working. Don't give up! #TeamMuskOx

As a friend said recently, the fabric of society feels really thin these days—and that was before COVID-19. If you can, try to do something to mend the weave, every day. Let’s take care of each other, #TeamMuskOx.
