I don't know when the last time there was a Zoom chat, but before I started working at the University, we used to have a Zoom chats monthly.
How many people are interested in Zoom chat in the next week or 2?
Now I look at the Calendar, there will be only 1 Saturday that would be available for me.
Who's all in for a Zoom chat on December 30, at 2 PM Eastern time?

Keytruda is a cancer drug. It also shows signs of pushing out latent HIV cells that lie dormant in your hidden reservoirs.
