The Gift That Keeps on Giving: Summer Program Prepares Future Leaders in Nursing

“Imagine a summer where learning advanced research methods comes with a heavy dose of compassion and a clear path toward making real change. The Sue & Bill Gross School of Nursing at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) has been offering just that.— a transformative experience that combines research, mentorship, and personal growth for junior nursing students from historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs).” (Courtney Mullins)

Why do so few in Southern California get updated COVID vaccinations?

“Most egregiously, its official guidance is not to let a positive COVID at-home test result keep us from going to work or school, as long as we are asymptomatic. Yet some people are advised to re-up their vaccines every four months. While new guidance on a cadence of every-four-months vaccines for 65+ may make sense in light of data on fading antibodies, it’s not going to do anything to help vaccine uptake. ” (Andrew Noymer)
