@accintouch.bsky.social's Palliative Care Workgroup and the Outpatient Palliative Cardiology Collaborative present: From Prognosis to Priorities: Insights on Outpatient Palliative Cardiology from Your Colleagues in the Field November 6th, 2025, 7:30 pm EST - Link to register: lnkd.in/eTM8TzgY

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Cardiology clinician here. There is no such thing as "cardiac age."

If we’re doing this organ by organ, can we skip to the brain?

This is a raisin-free zone. 😂

MIT refuses to accept White House terms for funding, other schools still mulling reut.rs/471tkNZ

Tell Jon Husted what you think about his track record on health and healthcare in #Ohio. Letters will be printed on note cards and hand delivered to his office on October 15th.

This is Clio. She did not study for the test today. Also does not know how to read. 12/10 (IG: paspastotoro)

Couple of problems with this tweet... 1. A GP or general practitioner does not really exist in the United States. There is no GP residency for example. 2. Most family doctors believe in vaccines as much as pediatricians do. 3. Vaccine extortion mill? Big money? I drive a 2008 Toyota RAV4.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Update from the war zone in Portland.

they just slapped a surgeons general warning on RFK like he’s a pack of cigarettes

Three surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients to operate on. The first surgeon said, "Electricians are the best, everything inside is color coded." The second surgeon says, "No, I think librarians are, everything inside them is in alphabetical order."

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Double vaccinated against flu and COVID-19 today! Feeling great and very thankful to the scientists, investigators, physicians, and clinical trial participants who made it possible. Give a shout if you’re vaccinated too.

Messaging w a nurse about pt and she replied, ending w "have a quiet day!" 😱 Me: I thought we were friends, do you hate me?! Never use the Q word 😬😂

#Republicans and their media allies are desperately trying to frame the shutdown as the fault of #Democrats Meanwhile, Republicans can’t even be bothered to show up for work.

The biggest reason for longer waits is staffing shortages, which are driven by more people leaving healthcare practice than entering, esp nursing, due to bad management practices (often related to private equity). This administration’s immigration policies will significantly worsen these shortages.

Since 1980 the government has shut down now 11 times—8 times under Republicans and the longest ever shutdown under a Republican—proving yet again that Republicans claim government doesn’t work, then get elected and prove it.

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

"Republicans run the entire government but can't keep it open" That's it. That's the whole story.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

Also there's no such thing as the "Department of War." It's still called the Department of Defense, just like it's still the Gulf of Mexico. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Beyond honored to receive an AMWA 2025 Inspire Award alongside so many incredible women physicians including my #HCWvsHunger partner in crime @tmprowell.bsky.social 💜

We all need this right now.

I don’t know the Author of this photo collage, but wanted to pass on the positive feelings it gave me. Update: The creator of this beautiful collage is Kimberly Kwon.

Need facts, hope, and clarity about child health? Follow pediatricians 💕 As a pediatric PA, physicians like @drjaimefriedman.bsky.social @drelizabethmurray.bsky.social @drscottk.medsky.social @deannamarie208.bsky.social @tphammd.bsky.social are my go-to mentors in advocacy and medicine. Follow all!

Brutal.

He wants to dictate what the press can say. What a university can teach. Whom a company can employ. And to whom the law shall apply. He who wants all this is not a president, But strives to be a dictator. And all who succumb are not citizens, But subjects.

This is how American citizens are being treated under the current administration. Senior citizens thrown to the ground! 😡

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

Was at a stop light and a cybertruck pulled up next to me. Those things are even uglier up close. 🙄

It’s hard to convey the insanity of a thirty-something White House staffer getting an interim US Attorney appointment and marching into the grand jury room alone four days later to indict the former Deputy Attorney General and Director of the FBI

Pundits who write about the shutdown must put it in this context. The president is acting against the law and against the constitution. Pundits must ask themselves: what are the Democrats bargaining with and should they be bargaining at all?

I really appreciate how Dr. Glaucomflecken has become all of medicine and public health's emotional support ophthalmologist. I sat through 16 hours of ACIP meetings last week. If I do not laugh, I will cry.

#Medsky. Those who use EPIC Haiku w an Android phone: How do you prevent the app from logging you out frequently? It makes it v hard to use unless you sign into the chat via a desktop. IPhone people seem to stay signed in for at least 12 hrs at a time.

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.” Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

Before people call to ask. Measles is not available as a single antigen product in the USA. It's not FDA approved, we don't carry it, and we can't order it for you.
