My wife has been HIV+ for 34 years. She’s alive today b/c work of activists who destigmatized the virus, pushed medical science to adapt & find ways to treat it, & advocated for gov health programs that helped fund her care. The current U.S. regime may want to go back in time, but we won’t let them.

the covid vaccine prevents many more cases of myocarditis than it potentially causes in kids and adults. this is a conclusive fact from dozens of massive rigorous studies. vinay prasad is an expert in using statistics to lie, and he is credentialed — that makes this even more dangerous.

It would be against the medical code to not hang out with them

When I was in the hospital, my doctor wrote orders for therapy dog visits. The therapy dog team at the hospital took that seriously. I had 2 visits a day from therapy dogs. It helped a great deal. I was very depressed from being hospitalized for many weeks.

Make sure you’re following my good buddy Rana on here! She’s an amazing, dedicated ICU doctor whom I’ve been lucky enough to work with & call my friend over the years. #Medsky #Nursesky #Healthsky

We ALWAYS break rounds for therapy dogs ♥️ #MedSky

We have some good neighbors.

Access to vaccines is not a privilege — it is a human right. In @statnews.com today, Stefan Peterson and I write about using a human rights-based approach to deal with vaccine denialism and the return of measles, whooping cough and diphtheria www.statnews.com/2025/11/12/c...

This pre-holiday time of year, I REALLY enjoy soliciting recipe tips from community elders. Today’s tip: brown chicken wings to make a richer stock for stuffing. #MedSky

This piece is as good as people say it is. Read it to appreciate that writing isn't just about content, but style. AI can't do this.

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"
