It's been inspiring, not surprising, to see my good friend @ShaunaCausey thrive in this moment, as the founding CEO of @JoinWeekdays and thought leader in this time of significant change for education. She is everywhere, @TODAYshow, Fox, @CNBC, @WSJ, making her voice heard.

Noticed a real uptick in people watching my 5G: Explained video and a lot of people asking about coronavirus…
Lemme save you a little research: 5G doesn’t “cause” coronavirus. Can’t believe I actually have to say that.
