Such an honor being back at my alma mater @CUMCAnesthesia to give the inaugural Chiefs Grand Rounds!
So much of my work stems from the lessons and values instilled in me at @Columbia. Proud to have been trained by these world-class clinicians committed to quality healthcare!
@Klonick@Hertz I am boycotting @Hertz after similar awful experience this summer. Car broke 3 hours into travel and they wanted us to return it where we got it from. Credit card co helped us stop payment. @Hertz then charged a different card on file that we did not authorize payment from!
I had a Very Bad experience with @Hertz over Thanksgiving.
This is what happened & the letter I wrote. We are totally fine, & our Thanksgiving ended up wonderful, but I suspect this is a fraudulent business practice, & I want to give it visibility for those who don't or can't.
@christokir@_beaueverett@wil_da_beast630 And btw we literally knew nothing early on. We feared for our lives thinking that we were completely contaminated just walking into a patient’s room wearing the same mask for a week.
@_beaueverett@wil_da_beast630 And corrected for co-morbidity? Corrected for “died with” vs “died from?” Covid was and remains *largely* a killer of old, obese and immunocompromised. We knew this early on, and could have taken measures to protect those at risk without the blanket shutdown.
Radical take: if you are not immuno-compromised, and under ~55, you took no heroic risks at all during COVID-19 and did not "survive the plague."
Every one of your boys who didn't go to college just worked the whole time.
@christokir@_beaueverett@wil_da_beast630 From my vantage point, the NYC shutdown was to keep more people from overwhelming those of us working desperately in hospitals to save lives. Not sure why more people across the country didn’t learn from what happened to us.
I recently disputed a @Hertz rental car charge through @Chase@Visa. After the dispute was resolved in my favor, Hertz simply put the charge on my @AmericanExpress card they had on file. Is this criminal fraud? I'll be using @Avis.
💪🏽💪🏼💪🏿💪🏾📚Thanks so much for inviting me to discuss this important topic at @CUMCAnesthesia grand rounds! So fun to be introduced by my freshman college friend from 1994!! 😳🥰🥳 #WomenInMedicine#MedEd Eliminate #Bias in eval & #LOR!!
