For us, these projects are:

- Stemming an Ebola epidemic.
- Building a production grade COVID Vaccination Supply Chain “From BionTech/Pfizer to jab in arm” in three and a half weeks.
- Supporting Route Planning for Humanitarian Disaster Relief Convoys (again in three weeks).

I go into much more detail in the talk, and I plan to share even more details in future blog posts, but these are the kinds of projects that make me wake up in the morning and that make it all worth it. 3/3

And finally, special thanks to Ed Yong, COVID pandemic journalist extraordinaire, for modelling for me at the last @xoxo that being on stage with a mask is totally fine 🫶

I had thought I’d not be doing this for the foreseeable future. As someone with ~300 talks under my belt, the last one in December 2019,, that was a tough pill to swallow.

I’m glad I can still do this and it wouldn’t be for Ed, so thank you! 💖
