Federal workers are patriotic Americans and many are Veterans. Been tough to watch many be randomly fired or harassed into quitting. My biggest concern is Veteran suicide. We need to do more to protect our Veterans

FDA occasionally asks for post-approval studies, but usually it’s for something that got approved with relatively marginal evidence of benefit (Xigris was one that I recall) or some signal of harm. Novavax had neither and should be approved based on the data.

Armstrong said the bill “represents a misguided attempt to legislate morality through overreach and censorship." Has he signed other bills that are problematic? Yes. But am I pleased that a Republican recognized one of these book banning bills as not the American way? Yes. kfgo.com/2025/04/23/n...

Interesting trend, PAs and NPs had about a 33% increase in burnout going from ~30% to ~40% rate. My quick thoughts would be stress on the healthcare system during COVID put more responsibility on APPs and it didn't let up afterwards.

I reported on economics full-time in 2020. It taught me there are no incentives to have a baby in the US. Women in the US have to pay for pre-natal, medical and child care, earn less, do most of the parenting and chores, get promoted less, and are now at 27% higher risk of maternal mortality.
