MS. WINFIELD CUNNINGHAM: Good afternoon. I’m Paige Winfield Cunningham, a health policy reporter here at The Washington Post and author of the Health 202 Newsletter, and this afternoon, I’m delighted to welcome our first guest, Dr. Eric Topol, who is founder and director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute and the executive vice president of Scripps Research.

Welcome to Washington Post Live, Dr. Topol.

DR. TOPOL: Thanks, Paige. It’s great to be with you.

MS. WINFIELD CUNNINGHAM: I want to start off, of course, by talking about the search for a vaccine which is something I know a lot of our viewers are paying attention to. We saw this controversy over the stricter standards that the FDA was considering for granting emergency use authorization, and last week, the White House signed off on those standards after the president had indicated he thought they were politically motivated.

Can you give us

The news of yet another closure follows a year of massive upheaval in the industry, with titles shut and scores of redundancies thanks to coronavirus sales restrictions and an advertising drought. GQ Australia, which reached a monthly print audience of 104,000, outlasted its nearest competitor, Men’s Style, which closed three years ago. Jake Millar, announced as editor earlier this year, will stay on as editorial director events and digital, although there may be some redundancies.

Former GQ editors include Peter Holder, Nick Smith and, briefly, Matthew Drummond.

Neuroscientist and “The Big Bang Theory” actress Mayim Bialik is launching a new podcast encouraging fans to witness her “breakdown.” Slated for a fall release, “Bialik’s Breakdown” takes a holistic approach in discussing mental health. During a live taping of Tablet Magazine’s “Unorthodox” podcast on Oct. 12, Bialik said she will begin to record episodes in a few weeks.

“I’m starting a podcast because during quarantine I think many of us realized that anyone who had issues, they got worse, and all the people who didn’t think they had issues, now they know that they have them, too,” she said. “I wanted to be able to say, ‘I’m Mayim Bialik and welcome to my breakdown.’”

Using her degree in neuroscience and with the help of experts and her friends, each episode will feature different mental health diagnoses and challenges rather than, “here’s what you got, and here are the pills

Allscripts Healthcare Solutions is selling its care coordination subsidiary CarePort Health to WellSky, the companies said Tuesday.

WellSky, a company that develops software tools for post-acute care providers, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire CarePort for $1.35 billion, representing more than 13 times CarePort’s revenue over the last 12 months and roughly 21 times the company’s adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and amortization.

CarePort represents roughly 6% of Allscripts’ revenue.

Allscripts and WellSky, which is owned by private-equity firms TPG Capital and Leonard Green & Partners, expect the sale to close before year-end.

WellSky officials said buying CarePort, which connects acute and post-acute care providers and payers, will better position the company to manage the acute-care discharge process, as well as tracking for patients across post-acute care settings.

Under the agreement, CarePort’s customers and employees will transition to WellSky.

“Together with CarePort, WellSky will establish new, meaningful connections
