RFK Jr. pushed cod liver oil as a measles treatment—now Texas children are hospitalized with liver damage. Utah has 583 measles cases. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective. Kennedy runs U.S. public health. Three people died last year. This is the cost of pseudoscience. Scientific research saves lives.

Ok, need a new EHR and too many imperfect choices. Medicine folks? Small internal med practice.

Rx: zepbound for severe sleep apnea Insurance co: denied Me: patient has severe OSA, med is indicated for this, please reconsider Ins: the reason they have OSA is because they're obese so you're really rx for obesity which we don't cover

It's like America's parents caught us smoking authoritarian, racist, evil incompetence, and now they're making us smoke the whole pack to teach us a lesson.

Tonight begins the Jewish holiday or Passover, when most of the world’s 15 million Jews—secular and religious—gather to celebrate freedom. Whether or not you believe in the literal Exodus of the ancient Israelites from Egypt, the Jewish people have certainly had more than our share of oppression.

Repost from last year

If Penn complies with the court ruling to turn over names of Jews they will be complicit in everything that follows.

Brisket is 15$ a lb and that’s just antisemitic

Today, MSF is going public with something we've been fighting behind closed doors for months: Gilead will not sell us their new HIV drug, lenacapavir. The sticking point isn't even price, they just refuse to sell. Open letter linked + explainer 🧵1/ www.doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/gilea...

You might forward this story to every Marine you know.

The guy who attacked our synagogue thought he was attacking the "largest gathering of Israelis in Michigan". In fact, he attacked a temple full of babies and school children who were, in fact, not Israelis, not that it would have been any better.

Sometimes the caffeine hits just right

I wanna keep pesach this year but absolutely gonna follow sefardic minhag. We ashkenasim are nuts, if you'll pardon the pun.

I don't understand what Ford is thinking with their lineup. They've got one niche sedan (Mustang), one niche EV (Mach E), one mid-size niche SUV (Broncho, really 2), and large ICE SUVs. And of course trucks. But no small SUVs or sedans at all anymore.

I hate writers block

Our temple is meeting at different places every week for services. Perhaps they'll find us a permanent-temporary spot. Latest email for location said, "pls don't share on soc med, just friends and fam".

Why is there little protest on campus right now? Because the right engineered a moral panic that led to vast over-reaction by university administrators and trustees, which made protesting difficult on campus. Full-stop. 5/ pen.org/harsh-penalt...

Re HTN treatment, The guidelines are so confusing sometimes, although not sure what real world data say about how important the choices are. HCTZ vs CTD/indap given the va study; starting combo ccb+rasi (although in practice combo not used much in USA i don't think) vs combo with thiazide..

It's really bizarre seeing the trauma the attack on our synagogue has caused. Being a doctor in the community puts things in different light. Some of the therapists are working like crazy to make sure everyone is cared for.

This shocked me

"Your stomach microbiome is plants" is the "pee is stored in the balls" of "[the internet] is a system of tubes."

Can you be forced to have a c-section? If you’re a black woman in FL, apparently yes. My essay links to the @propublica.org piece. I’m so disturbed by the doctors actions.

I drove an ev yesterday for the first time and it’s def the car I’ll be getting. It’s insane that we aren’t all driving them. It’s sooo much better!

Timeline cleanse. Wish I was there. Although the ice is prob still in.

I first used epocrates on a palm pilot. I’ve used it continuously since 2000

Holy shit. This is dead fucking on target.

@soumya-goblue.medsky.social why do doctors suck? What is with our colleagues??

Black women undergoing forcible surgeries, "legally" forced on them by the state and medicine is also part of a dark and long history in the US. Terrible story, must read.

I need to dig up more info on the doctors. This violates our ethics on so many levels.

There's so much in the new AHA lipid guidelines. I'm starting to wonder if we should have the lab have a line item for Non-HDL so that we don't have to subtract every time! I think these guidelines are great, but trying to digest it all to make it operational is gonna take a min.

Our Temple released some pictures pics of the aftermath of the attack. It’s unknown when we be able to use the building again. The nursery and school are working on relocating.

Afroman found not liable. A complete victory for the rapper and a massive unforced error from the cops and their attorney. www.billboard.com/pro/afroman-...

Now is a really good time to buy this book, which couldn’t be timelier or more vital

imagine what these transcripts are going to be like this time last year when the only surviving AUSAs graduated from Billy Ray's Bible College And Christian Warrior Law 'Cadamy a week ago

General reminder that your local cops also do this to women they've arrested. Like, all the time, in fact! Turns out giving men a gun and a uniform and ultimate authority over others tends to enable bad behavior, who knew

Our temple will likely be closed for months. It’s the core of our community. Working parents count on the preschool and nursery. There are bnai mitzvot and weddings that need venues. I worry about our clergy and staff. And parents are traumatized.
