Remember, for the past 5 years Jay Bhattacharya has gone on twitter and Fox News telling people he *would have* handled Covid perfectly, blasting public health at every turn. Now that he’s in power, “don’t blame me” seems to be the theme.

Good news. Fortunately, it is approved by a federal dept. RFK Jr. doesn't oversee (USDA). Call me pessimistic, but how long until this gets attacked with the usual antivax talking points by people with sig. platforms? "Toxins," human health impacts, etc., etc. 🙄🛟🧪😷 idsky medsky

NEW: Health officials in San Francisco are investigating a presumptive case of #BirdFlu that was found in a child who lives in the city. It’s not clear how the child contracted the virus. The child had fever & conjunctivitis, wasn’t hospitalized and has fully recovered. #BlueSky  #MedSky 🧪 #IDSky

#MedSky #IDSky #PublicHealth There is a widespread outbreak of #norovirus, a GI virus that causes projectile vomiting & profuse diarrhea usually lasting 24-48 hrs. Wastewater levels nationwide in 🇺🇸 are high. It’s miserable & incredibly contagious. So many friends are texting SOS, so here’s a 🧵. /1

💯 There is deep anxiety about oral antibiotics not being “aggressive” enough with a “severe” infection, with the concern about an error of omission rather than commission. Meaning, a bad outcome by doing less outweighs concerns about a bad outcome by doing more. #IDsky

Agree! It is quite a difficult sell when we want to be “aggressive.” Alternatively, IV abx won’t do the job any better than oral if the vascular supply is compromised. IV does not treat arterial insufficiency…. #IDSky
