The growing number of measles cases is concerning. The Measles is serious and highly contagious. There is no treatment for measles but there is a safe and effective vaccine. I encourage everyone to protect themselves and their children by ensuring they are vaccinated.

Stunning. With rollout of the RSV vaccine and treatment for babies <8 months old, RSV hospitalizations fell >50%. By comparison, for toddlers and kids <5 years who were not covered by these advances, RSV hospitalizations did not fall.

Need a book recommendation. Criteria: nothing war-related (don't care about it), nothing epic fantasy (taking a break), and nothing that's a "classic" as they usually stink out loud. Bonus points if the audiobook is good too. I like to switch back and forth.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

The U.S. has actively dismantled the global disease-detection programs we all—including Americans—rely on to stay safe Today this administration’s short-sighted global health agenda got even even worse It’s ending its support for vaccine programs around the world Why?? 🧵

Tuberculosis continued to rise again in the U.S. last year, reaching its highest levels in more than a dozen years. trib.al/Xju48MP

Let's be very clear about what's happening here: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are helping Vladimir Putin cover up a horrific war crime.

🧵regarding the 'rapidly absorbable' sutures, which are used less often than other suture types, but fill specific roles in a number of different surgical specialties. We'll go over the uses of (and differences between) Chromic, plain gut, 'fast' gut, and Vicryl Rapide. (1/)

A great opportunity — especially for residents & fellows — to have your hard work recognized at @ACEPNow

Association of Lumbar MRI Findings with Current and Future LBP. 'Our study shows that the MRI degenerative findings we examined, individually or in combination, do not have clinically important associations with LBP' Little association & not terribly predictive. Daily practice tells me this. 💁‍♂️ journals.lww.com/spinejournal/f…

TL;DR on the new AF guidelines. For acute control of RVR: - CCB vs BB is a tired discussion - Don't kill mod-severe CM with CCB tho - Mag is fetch - If not hemodynamically unstable, and don't have decomp CHF, it's not an emergency. ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…
