You seldom know on any given day what another person is coping with

The significance of passing drug price negotiation over the objection of the pharmaceutical industry cannot be overstated. Pharma does not lose often on Capitol Hill.

Maternal mortality in the United States, highest of all 38 OECD ➡️ Better Policies for Better Lives countries, increased during the pandemic and now, with banning of abortion in many states, is positioned to go even higher, w/ disproportionate impact by race and ethnicity

There are 4 laws that could lower risks of horrific mass shooting like the one in Texas today. Here they are, in Scientific American. Why won't the US keep our children safer with them? scientificamerican.com/article/4-laws…

If only we had a way to lower risk of death from Covid by 68-fold

8/9 In addition, we already recommend important vaccines for children against diseases that actually caused less death than COVID-19 prior to vaccination being recommended. In the past year, 66 children age 5-11 have died from COVID-19, an illness that is now vaccine-preventable.

What is the perceived ulterior motive of public health professionals? I’m asking for sincere responses to help me understand (know that I’ll get trolled). Every public health professional I know has pure intent - help protect & preserve the health and safety of their community.

Announcing today we put together 30 health care leaders from the last 4 Admins & leading scientists to ask businesses to require vaccinations with #COVIDSafeZones .

Pleased that dozens of major companies here have decided to with new vaccine requirements. covidcollaborative.us/covidsafezones

Take-home message from Israel data:

No substantial community (or herd) immunity (protection from infection conferred on non-vaccinated by the vaccinated population).

The Pfizer vaccine continues to provide enormous protection from death, hospitalizations, & severe disease.

Those who said they don’t want an “experimental vaccine” are now part of a larger experiment... as the control group.

amendment: the process of altering or modifying a law or document (such as a constitution) by parliamentary or constitutional procedure.

It’s been done 27 times to our particular Constitution- but...who needs facts, right?

Not very surprising...one group tends to understand facts over conspiracies

“The President was guilty of everything he was accused of...which is why I voted to acquit”

100 million vaccinations in 100 days sounds like a lot, but this isn’t nearly bold enough. This rate is essentially where we are now. It will not get us to herd immunity until well into 2022. If there are supply problems as to why we can’t do more, the Biden team must tell us now

Biden is about to come on shift with 100 in the waiting room, 24 ICU holds, 6:1 nurse ratios, shortages on PPE, dilaudid, haldol, morphine, ativan, ketamine & zofran. And every patient has covid.

Oh & the offgoing team stopped seeing pts 4 hrs ago, and left already w/o signout.
