Since there’s no “TEST” for Long COVID essentially everyone is “seronegative” @JAMA_current 📌Many doctors are Cynical about #longCOVID 📌Skepticism of Seronegative pts is not new 📌Prejudice is built into our training as Doctors Let’s hear patients👇 bit.ly/3npdHx5

@PutrinoLab As an emergency physician and Long Covid patient I feel both sides of this. Acute care in US is not built to serve those with chronic debilitating conditions. I’d love to be able to get people directly to rehab. Few can afford that out of pocket and insurance ties our hands.

Hey #medtwitter - need actionable advice because we're failing badly: many #longcovid patients end up in the ED daily in a desperate state only to be told "Everything looks normal. You aren't actively dying. Go home." How do we make it possible for these patients to be admitted?

In line to vote today my son asked me if we had to pay to vote. As I explained about poll taxes and all the ways people are still trying to keep others from voting, even more energized to vote for @staceyabrams and @ReverendWarnock.

@ALMannixMD We are emergency physicians practicing emergency medicine in an emergency department! Definitely grinds my gears when a student says they’re “going into ER.”

Also, I def made this mistake while in medical school/applying for residency. I wish I had mentorship to teach me the difference.

How does everyone feel about people describing the speciality of “Emergency Medicine” as “ER”. Eg. “I want to go into ER.” “What made you go into ER?” “I don’t like ER” It always bothers me, but I wonder if I’m just sensitive.
