Congrats to my good friend, Allen Thomas of Greenville, North Carolina, who has been sworn in as Region IV (4) Administrator for the U.S. Small Business Administration. He has oversight of the federal Agency for nine district offices located across eight states; Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee.  Regional Administrator Thomas is a former three-term mayor, businessman, entrepreneur, and leader in public and private enterprise. As mayor of Greenville, one of North Carolina's largest cities, Mr. Thomas led the post-recession recovery, rapid expansion, and robust economic growth, better connecting the city and region. He was recognized by the White House during the Obama-Biden Administration for community engagement in law enforcement and public safety.

A serial entrepreneur, Mr. Thomas co-founded healthcare technology startup IQMax, which grew to service 160 medical facilities in 36 states, processing 18 million patient records per day. Mr. Thomas was appointed Executive Director of North Carolina Global TransPark by North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper to revitalize the state's global multimodal transportation and logistics hub, spearheading growth in advanced manufacturing jobs, innovation, and investment.

Science 37, Inc., the Agile Clinical Trial Operating System TM, announced plans to establish a new headquarters location in Morrisville, North Carolina, bringing 250 new jobs and $1.5 million over the next five years to the town.

Science 37’s mission is to enable universal access to clinical research by making it easier for patients and providers to participate from anywhere, helping to accelerate the development of treatments that impact patient lives.

Once again, our Town continues to emerge as a hub for tech and life science innovation in the United States.  Another big win to end the year as we continue our journey to be the best place to live, work, and play in Morrisville.

President Biden on Tuesday unveiled new plans to fight the spread of the highly contagious Omicron variant of the coronavirus, saying the government would make 500 million rapid at-home tests freely available to Americans, increase support for hospitals and add testing sites in regions that need additional capacity. 

Starting in January, Mr. Biden said, Americans will be able to request rapid tests through a website and have them delivered, free of cost. The timing of when those tests will arrive on doorsteps and how they will be delivered is not yet clear. 

In addition, 1,000 members of the military will be deployed to help staff medical facilities caring for COVID-19 patients. There are also plans to send out additional ventilators and equipment from the national stockpile besides expanding hospital capacity to handle infected patients. 

The F.D.A. authorized Pfizer’s Covid treatment pill for high-risk patients. It could be available within days.
