The Hemophilia A Research Program (HARP) is studying how hemophilia A affects mothers and babies. Mothers may be eligible if they are pregnant and their future child could be at risk for hemophilia A. For more information visit harpf8.org. To join the study visit harpf8.org/join-the-study.

On World Hemophilia Day, we reaffirm our commitment to the hemophilia community. Today, we share Shellye's story, emphasizing the need to recognize this rare bleeding disorder across its full clinical spectrum. For the full video, visit bit.ly/48qWZ4N. #WHD2026 Intended for US HCPs Only.

Please stop using the 16 year CDC statistic when talking about how long it takes for women to be diagnosed with VWD!!! This statistic is taken out of context and misquoted. The CDC study interviewed 75 women with VWD who managed to get a diagnosis and be treated at a hemophilia treatment center. 1/

What a gift to join Hemophilia Federation of America and National Bleeding Disorders Foundation today on World Hemophilia Day to advocate in DC for women with bleeding disorders.

This. Especially Senate Republicans.

How many of you know someone who’s lost a job or has a job in jeopardy due to all these new executive orders? I’m guessing most people on here.😔

It's the second time "The Star-Spangled Banner" drew that reaction in two games the United States has played at the NHL-run international tournament.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

I've seen them around my local haunts. It's not an insignificant number.

It’s the hill they are willing to let their child die on…

In 2023, the University of Michigan received $683 million in NIH funding w indirect costs of 56% (~$382 million) With the new cap of 15%, which also applies to current funding, that’s $280 million less per year than budgeted. And that’s just one institution. This will BREAK academia.

Canada TURNS THE TABLES On Trump With A BRUTAL OFFER. Elizabeth May (green party) offers Blue states "Become part of Canada" with Benefits. #Canada #cdnpoli #onpoli #Amerpoli #Canadasky Click here Below www.youtube.com/channel/UCyV...

As a Canadian, I prefer this version. Blue states, come join us and leave the MAGA fever dream behind. We offer universal healthcare, sane gun control laws and a commitment to peace, order, and good gov’t, ideals that we don’t always live up to but at least no one is storming parliament.

ANOTHER MODEST PROPOSAL

This does say a lot.

Hematologists are so good at protecting women w/ hemophilia during surgery and the days immediately following hysterectomy. Quite a few, however, forget about bleeding risk weeks after as stitches dissolve, sending patients to the ER pouring 🩸

Fearless

Thank God Vanity Fair is keeping it REAL!

I’ve cared for infants who stopped breathing w/ pertussis. School aged kids who died of flu or COVID. And many of my patients can’t be vaccinated because they’re on chemotherapy or are immune compromised. Vaccinations save lives of those who get them & those who cannot. It’s that simple.

FUN FACT: Measles, polio, diphtheria, mumps, rubella and tetanus are six once-common illnesses that vaccines have contained for decades, saving many millions of lives.

Fantastic response.

Today's lesson discusses the American health care system for those in countries where their system provides care for free or reasonable fees. 👇

This just happened at our local rural hospital. It’s real and scary. The only alternative, 30+ miles away, has a history of refusing medically necessary lifesaving abortions because they are a Catholic institution.🤦🏻‍♀️

It was a wild and crazy night. I stayed up until 3 AM partying. And by “partying” I mean making new curtains for my guest room. #introvert

It’s not rocket 🚀 science…masking 😷 protects hospitalized patients.

RFK Jr’s nomination is the repudiation of a century of unprecedented and miraculous progress in public health. We take it for granted because we don’t recognize how far we’ve come. I recently wrote in @theatlantic about what we risk losing. Gift link 👇 www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Getting FVIII and FIX half-life calculations correct in #hemophilia is critical. When calculating for milds, if endogenous factor is not accounted for, it will result in an inflated half-life and the potential for prolonged bleeding. Read to learn more.
