Restarting the free rapid test program is not enough. The White House needs to launch a program to send FREE N95 masks to everyone through the mail. Why not include masks with the tests they send? #FreeN95s

Antibiotic Awareness week is a great time to bust the myth of IV being superior to PO.
As deeply entrenched dogma as it is, recently I’ve seen folks across medicine embrace 💊
Let’s keep working on it, & having 1:1 convos when there’s pushback.

For those opposed to indoor masking as a tool to *immediately* slow the current hospital crisis, which is driven by respiratory illnesses, I ask again: WHAT IS YOUR SOLUTION? It's a genuine question. Doing nothing is not an option.

Tired of your daycare age children coming home with colds/flu/RSV this fall?
Please request that daycares help children wash their hands and no longer treat this as an independent activity for 3 and 4 year olds.
Consider masking your children. It will save your PTO and copays.

Whatever people think of masks for covid, the evidence is super duper clear that when we all wore masks there was no flu.
Epidemics dont have to “run their course”—we can cut this flu season short anytime we want with masking, hand-washing, and flu vaccines.
The U.S. is officially in a flu epidemic, federal health officials say. They’re preparing to deploy troops and ventilators if necessary fortune.com/well/2022/11/04/…

When adult ICUs and hospitals were overwhelmed with COVID, we pulled out all the stops to help.
Now when pediatric ICUs and hospitals are overwhelmed with RSV and other viruses, where is the response?

Deafening silence from government over the crisis unfolding in multiple hospital ER rooms, especially pediatric hospitals. Let's go over what they and we can and should be doing... [thread 1/8]

If you’re unhappy with your life, the first step is becoming aware of how you spend your time. Time is and always will be your greatest asset. How you use time can add to emotional health, or damage it.

This video from RIKEN Japan shows why whenever we are indoors and in proximity to others, we should wear a #FFP2respiratormask or superior.
We are still amidst a #COVID pandemic and the viral variants keep on infecting people& triggering #longcovid. 😷
