Fauci: Common endpoints, common parameters provide "bridge" between #COVID19 vaccine trials. "We are cautiously optimistic" for a vaccine "by the end of the calendar year" because of favorable animal studies, though distribution will be later #ACR20 @Rheumnow. https://t.co/vPLEYiGKam

A reminder or the fundamentals to curbing COVID19 per Dr. Anthony Fauci at #ACR20:
1. Everyone needs to wear a mask
2. Maintain 6 feet distance from others
3. Avoid crowds & congregations
4. Outdoor better than indoors
5. Wash your hands frequently

Tracking CRP in the hyper-acute phase of admission for #COVID19 predictive of progression to critical illness- suggests trends of inflammatory biomarkers, not absolute admission values, may be most useful for triage & therapy.

Should we in rheumatology be the ones leading the trials using our drugs with checkpoint inhibitors?
Can we learn lessons about collaborative work from @rheum_covid?

Great talk by @rheumcat @rheum_covid on COVID-19 impact on rheumatology. Talk to pts re: what to do with rheum rx... they haven't read guidelines and may make their own changes! Prepare them for exposure/ifn! #ACR20 @Rheumnow 2F042 https://t.co/HkxbkYjEm3
