Dr. Monica Gandhi toured the landscape with us. The recent recall of California Governor Gavin Newsom has bipartisan roots, in dissatisfaction with the “lockdown mentality” that closed playgrounds and parks, and kept San Francisco's schools shuttered for 18 months. It was to a significant degree a “referendum on the illiberal liberals.” Once “the power of vaccines” came into force, however, California pioneered mandates, passports, and expanded testing; achieved over 80% vaccine coverage; and drove cases and deaths to exceptional lows. The future? “Immunity is the path out” to achieve control over Covid-19. Big concerns? Confused messaging around boosters terrifies the vaccinated and makes the unvaccinated believe less in vaccines. We are also witnessing rising intolerance: in our politically polarized debates over schools, vaccines, masks, and boosters, scientific discourse has lost balance and nuance.   Dr.Monica Gandhi is Professor of Medicine and Associate Chief of the Division of HIV, Infectious Diseases and Global Medicine at UCSF/San Francisco General Hospital. She also serves as the medical director of the HIV Clinic at SFGH, the famous “Ward 86.”

Today we sit down with Dr. Monica Gandhi, Associate Division Chief of the Division of HIV, Infectious Diseases, and Global Medicine at UCSF/ San Francisco General Hospital, and medical director of the HIV Clinic at SFGH.

Today we interview Dr. Monica Gandhi, Associate Division Chief of the Division of HIV, Infectious Diseases, and Global Medicine at UCSF/ San Francisco General Hospital, and medical director of the HIV Clinic at SFGH, on COVID-19 interventions. We talk about results from the vaccine studies and how vaccination is perceived by the public. We talk about her new paper out now in The Lancet Infectious Disease on the importance of non-pharmaceutical interventions (masking, social distancing, ventilation, hand-washing) in controlling COVID-19. We also talk about the stark difference between messaging created from the point of view of an epidemiologist vs the public health messaging that frontline health care workers deliver directly to patients. We end the interview by talking about schools and the need to re-open them.

Takeaways from today's episode: Traditional mentoring is often ad-hoc and vague whereas a structured mentoring programme with the right tools, resources and recognition is more effective.Mentees should be responsible for setting up research agenda and lead discussion with mentors and take ownership of careers and research projectsA mentor owes time and should be accessible to impart essential skills for research and life skills, and a mentee should show gratitude to the mentorMentorship should be agenda-driven with written agreements of action items between mentor and mentee, serving as a living proof of progressHaving a clear mentorship structure which maintains respect and cultural expectations, overcomes barriers  of hierarchy ResourcesMentoring the mentors article by Gandhi et al.: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6329359/Creating More Effective Mentors by Gandhi et al.: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4995126/What makes a good mentor:https://getpocket.com/explore/item/what-the-best-mentors-do?utm_source=pocket-newtab Guest informationMonica Gandhi MD, MPH is Professor of Medicine and Associate Division Chief (Clinical Operations/ Education) of the Division of HIV, Infectious Diseases, and Global Medicine at UCSF/ San Francisco General Hospital.

Dr. Margot Kushel describes her emphatic efforts to help a homeless patient whose needs outweigh a hospital’s offerings. Margot Kushel, MD is a Professor of Medicine at UCSF in the Division of General Internal Medicine at San Francisco General Hospital. Margot’s research interests include the health and health care utilization patterns of homeless adults and other vulnerable populations. She is Principal Investigator of an NIA funded study that is following a cohort of 350 older homeless adults in Oakland CA to assess how life events have impacted their homelessness, their health status (including geriatric conditions) and their use of the health care system. In the near future, Margot plans to expand this research to include studying symptomatology and views about advanced directives, and on examining novel ways of finding stable housing for older homeless adults. Margot is also conducting evaluations of new efforts to provide permanent supportive housing to individuals experiencing chronic homelessness and studies of how pain is managed for individuals with substance use disorders who receive care in safety net settings. At UCSF, Margot is the co-Director of the UCSF Primary Care Research Fellowship and is involved in numerous training activities geared towards training the next generation of implementation scientists who focus on improving care in the safety net. She maintains an active clinical practice as a general internist at the SFGH General Medical Clinic and attends on the inpatient medicine service at SFGH. When not at work (or driving back and forth across the Bay Bridge), Margot can be found reading, swimming, or laughing with her husband and their 13 year old twins.
