Paxlovid is making a big difference in preventing hospitalizations, deaths So who should get it? There is some confusion out there So let's clear it up with data Bottom line? If you're over 50 or have comorbid conditions For you, benefits from Pax likely outweighs risks 🧵

nytimes.com/2022/06/05/healt… “I believe this is the first time this has happened in the history of cancer.” Rectal tumors disappeared in every patient

A Cancer Trial’s Unexpected Result: Remission in Every Patient (Published 2022)

The study was small, and experts say it needs to be replicated. But for 18 people with rectal cancer, the outcome led to “happy tears.”

As the monkeypox virus (MPX) outbreak continues, a lot of data emerging in real-time & being rapidly disseminated (as well as misinformation). I complied the unfolding scientific data (with direct links to papers and threads) on what we (don’t) know so far. #IDTwitter 🧵(1/n)

Hard to believe a public health agency is running a campaign to drive vaccination by scaring people about cost of seeking care. Is CDC unaware of gaps in our healthcare system that already leave many vulnerable Americans excessively exposed to the costs and consequences of Covid?

Hospital stays can be expensive, but COVID-19 vaccines are free. Help protect yourself from being hospitalized with #COVID19 by getting vaccinated. Find your vaccine: vaccines.gov.

I haven't written much about omicron, because 1) there's a lot we still don't know; 2) others have written good shit that I've been RTing; and 3) I feel like I'm repeating myself from ...everything I've written before. But maybe a few words on what's concerning me right now. 🧵

.@ashishkjha answers a question on many people’s minds. How long to isolate if you test positive. 5 days plus a confirming quick test at the end is his answer and he explains why.

@ashishkjha26 Dec 2021
As Omicron cases explode We need a strategy for isolating folks who test positive We need to think about the purpose of isolation clearly Because if we don't get it right, It'll both be hugely disruptive and won't keep us safe So let's discuss what we need to do Thread

When folks think about highly vaccinated places in America They think Vermont or CT or MA Those places are good But not the most vaccinated place in America So who's #1? Puerto Rico! But PR has gotten way too little attention Its worth reflecting on how they did it Thread

This deep look from @zeynep at who the unvaccinated really are is spectacularly good. Eg: "The most powerful predictor of who remained unvaccinated was not age, politics, race, income or location, but the lack of health insurance." nytimes.com/2021/10/15/opini…

Women have been treated by clinicians and scientists as if they were just like men with a “one size fits all” approach to clinical care. @drstaceyrosen, @DrJMieres and @NashBeth explain how sex matters in healthcare. #RaiseWomensHealth nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-o…

In the practice of medicine, sex matters

Early on in the COVID-19 pandemic, physicians observed that men were more likely to die or to require treatment in an intensive care unit than women. This observation was later confirmed in a study...

Breaking News: The WHO approved the first ever malaria vaccine, which could save tens of thousands of children in sub-Saharan Africa. The quest for this vaccine has been underway for a hundred years, a WHO official said, and is a "historic event." nyti.ms/3oxUgAy
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Minor correction but the WHO didn’t “approve” the vaccine — they “recommend” it. The WHO doesn’t have authority to approve vaccines. who.int/news/item/06-1… Phase 3 results of this vaccine were first published and the vaccine was approved by EMA in 2015.
