My op ed on SC measles outbreak:

Discovered the best treatment for post election funk:
Gather your favorite SC AAP children’s advocate friends and exec committee board members for a weekend retreat focused on keeping kids healthy in SC!

A well-spent few hours at the SC Governor's Mansion. Networking with some of the finest advocates for children in SC. Wishing a happy future to Robbie Kerr as he steps down as SC Medicaid Director and welcoming Eunice Medina as she steps up.
