Congrats 👏 on the CDC appointment! Well deserved and definitely needed! Loved your appearance earlier in the year on WNYC with Brian Lehrer and I hope this new gig leads to more opportunities for you to do that kind of communication.

One suggestion for you - I spent close to 40 years in the biopharmaceutical industry. I had to prepare, present and interpret data for myself, my colleagues and management on a daily basis. I personally find many of the graphics used in the CDC summary you just reviewed baffling, especially the stacked line chart graphs. Please convince the powers that be that simpler, more straightforward presentations of critical data will go a long way to better communication and engagement by a wider public audience.

I can think of no one more qualified to share important information from the CDC.

You have been an invaluable resource for those of us who have been following you.
