COVID ( @UCSanDiego) Chronicles April 13 - now 23 patients hospitalized @UCSDHealth (9 on vents); 92 #SARSCoV2 tests yesterday and 9 (9.8%) positive; significant in rate likely due to #EasterSunday testing; similar seen across @UofCAHealth (1/6) https://twitter.com/UofCAHealth/status/1249794136187604992

A popular "herd immunity" hypothesis posits that CA cases have been less severe due to exposure last fall...this thread shows that #SARSCoV2 came in February 2020 based on genomic evidence #SocialDistancingWorks (5/6) https://twitter.com/trvrb/status/1249414291297464321

During this time of great anxiety, some have suggested #COVID19 sets up a breakout moment for virtual mental health care; @UCSDH_IS is pleased to support video visits for @UCSanDiego students with @ucsdCAPS and @PsychiatryUcsd (6/6) https://wellness.ucsd.edu/CAPS/services/Pages/video.aspx
