Medicine is unforgiving but, for women, the sacrifice runs deeper. Balancing career & life, proving ourselves, & accepting exhaustion as normal. Talking isn’t enough. We need real change & support. Because what’s the point of saving lives if we’re simply losing our own in the process? #Medsky

"My background isn't a sad story, it is an American story. I wanted to share it with you today so that you understand I am rooted in my principles, and I won't compromise them for anything. I do this without fear." Goosebumps and tears.

Thank you, @jama.com "...the silencing of this scientific discourse directly threatens the professional oaths that many have taken to protect the health of patients and the public. The silence with which many of us and our institutions are meeting this moment must be challenged." #Medsky

Here’s a "shorter" (😅) tweetorial…why do we use a combination of beta-lactam + vancomycin for cellulitis or MSSA bacteremia? If vancomycin covers both strep and staph, why not use it alone? Let’s dive in! 🧵 #medsky #pharmsky #EMsky #MedEd #IDsky #AMSky #nursesky

Delta plane out of Minneapolis crashes upside down at Toronto Pearson airport. So far, at least 8 people injured. No reported deaths at this time. This is madness.

Suing people for sharing stories of all the ways insurance has led to delayed medical care, personal financial impact/ruin, and other horrors is right on par for the insurance company deemed the Evil Empire by many physicians.

As far as I know, there are no examples of modern nations turning their backs on medical science. But there’s every reason to expect the consequences to be ghastly. When - not if - the next pandemic strikes, we can expect the federal response to be even worse than it was when Trump confronted Covid.

Listen friends - gather your hope where you can. People showed up in all 50 states on a moments notice. Voicemail boxes of senators are filling up. Lawsuits are being filed. Look at all the good people. And do not forget to take care of yourselves. Seriously. This is a long haul.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
