Hi #medsky. I have a persistent VRE bacteremia patient that I've had trouble managing. Basically has gained daptomycin resistance but countering with ceftaroline. Got to clear with linezolid but now thrombocytopenia developed. Treating as a discitis but also skull base osseous lesion around ICA.

#BlueSky still is very nice. Good job everyone

ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change. Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk: www.noaa.gov/noaa-wildfir...

the MMR vaccine is safe, effective, saves your child and other children's lives. Please don't delay vaccinating your children. #IDSky #PedsSky #MedSky #StopRFK #StopRFKJr #StopProject2025 #StopP25 #OMG

@cefiderica.bsky.social Erica!!! Long time no see. Hope you're doing well!

Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?

A whiteboard from our Jan 2023 team retreat where I wrote down our goals, and the top one was “10k user signups.” We’re growing by 10k users every 10-15 minutes right now.

RFK Jr., nominee for HHS, said we should stop infectious disease research for eight years: “I’m gonna say to NIH scientists, God bless you all. Thank you for public service. We’re going to give infectious disease a break for about eight years.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

Really concerned about the nomination of #RFK as the head of US HHS especially since he spreads information that contradicts science. I worry about public health, global health and pandemic preparedness. We need people making decisions who follow science. apnews.com/article/trum...

shot, but the sky was so clear I forgot about the cold, I was in absolute awe at what I was seeing. The pinky area a 3rd of the way up the Milky Way is the North America nebula and in the top left you just about make out the Andromeda galaxy. #photography
