"I'm not scared of a germ... I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats." This is a direct quote from the secretary of Health and Human Services. I lack words to describe how unhinged it is to have this person dictating healthcare policy for 350 million people. news.sky.com/story/robert...

New signage seen around the neighborhood #ICEout #MN #Minneapolis

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

Yall outside of MN need to know that observers are STILL out protecting their neighbors. Right now. They know the news and they’re still out there.

They are never, ever going to win in Minnesota.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

Call to Action: This Friday, Minnesota is being called to stand together in real, visible solidarity. Labor unions, faith leaders, and community organizers are urging people across the state to plan ahead and take part in a Minnesota Economic Blackout do not work, do not attend school, and do not

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

guys minneapolis is a living hell today. they've tear-gassed so many people, tear-gassed a park, beaten people up in front of me. greg bovino is rolling around to gas stations and posing in front of them, trying to cause a riot.

U.S. Customs and Border Patrol Cmdr. Greg Bovino is seen deploying a gas canister at Mueller Park in south Minneapolis this afternoon. Video by Ben Luhmann.

His name is Liam Ramos, and he is 5. He was abducted from Minneapolis and trafficked to a detention camp in Texas.

Still waiting on my paycheck 🧐 #MN #Minnesota #ICEout

I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.

Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

Renee Macklin Good's wife, Becca Good, released a statement and it moved me to sobbing tears: archive.is/ur35j

A mother, a Minnesotan, a US citizen was killed today by ICE. The video shows my friend & fellow physician being denied trying to give her care. ICE allowed her to die without help… This is a god damn travesty and injustice happening on our streets… #MedSky www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-sh...

Great to see this out: new IDSA guidelines on management of complicated UTI. Listened to excellent @cmicomms.bsky.social podcast with @angelahuttner.bsky.social @erinmccreary.bsky.social @bwtrautner.bsky.social & Valéry Lavergne earlier this year explaining how it was put together! #UTISky #IDSky

Minnesotans will be like “I really needed this”…and it’s just a sunny winter day with a temp above 32F ☀️

‼️Just shared at #IDWeek2025 & now published in @ofidjournal.bsky.social cephalexin vs. cefdinir for tx of uUTI in females. Spoiler: Cefdinir was independently associated with/failure & cefdinir pts were twice as likely to fail. Let’s stop Rx’ing cefdinir for UTI! 🛑💊 academic.oup.com/ofid/article...

Fosfomycin is indicated for uncomplicated UTI caused by susceptible E. coli, but resistant IC often appear during DD testing. Despite assumptions of resistance-associated fitness costs, our data suggests no significant in vitro fitness loss in IC across various media. Join Tiffany at #IDWeek2025!

Absolutely phenomenal @sidpharm.bsky.social keynote 🔑 from Dr. Mati Hlatshwayo Davis @matih-id.bsky.social today: Reducing Barriers Toward Health Equity: Advocating for Change in the Healthcare Industry and Beyond. I laughed, I cried. All the things. Just wow 👏👏👏 #IDWeek2025 #IDSky

The growing trend of non-medical exemptions and falling vaccination rates in MN (and nationally) is fueling measles outbreaks. COVID and the chaos around it (especially misinformation) has been terrible for public health 🤦🏻‍♂️ minnesotareformer.com/briefs/minne...

The people getting laid off are some of the highest-trained and most specialized people in healthcare. They don’t just get replaced by hiring some new people when a sane administration takes over. This is a huge loss for America.

I’ll be there too! Come and say hi 👋 #IDsky #UTIsky #Pharmsky

🧵 I know it's ridiculous, but when he's talking mitochondrial challenges & inflammation, he's again referring to his idea of vaccine-induced autism. Let me explain.

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

They recovered over 180 bullet shells at the CDC. Debris from shattered glass is still being cleaned up. I am completely stunned at how quickly the news cycle has moved on. This was an act of terrorism targeting public health experts, and the response seems to be a collective shrug.

What is the correct dose of flucytosine in cryptococcal meningitis? 100mg/kg is a round number? Is it correct? We sought to test whether lower dose 60mg/kg x 10 days was equally effective. doi.org/10.1093/cid/... Trial was designed by the great ID UMN fellow Tom McHale @umn-idim.bsky.social
