AI will never replace doctors. The human touch and the human connection is indispensable, and patients want to feel heard by their doctors, not just get answers to questions. Appreciate the conversation with @HollyFirfer1 and @scrippsnews

The war in Iran isn't just about bombs and explosions. A war usually translates to a public health catastrophe with consequences that can last a lifetime!

I have heard so many people, particularly MAHA supporters, say losing Measles elimination status from the @WHO would not be a big deal. To address this, I wrote an articel in @Forbes detailing why losing elimination status would be a BIG DEAL. forbes.com/sites/omerawan…

I’m thrilled the U.S. will be a part of this, despite exiting the @WHO! Immunization policy requires cooperation from all countries. Infectious diseases spread without borders and don’t need visas
Kate OBrien@Kate_L_OBrien

The world’s leading vaccine experts are meeting this week @ SAGE to review the latest evidence & guide global immunization policy. Evidence-based recommendations are essential to protect people of all ages from vaccine-preventable diseases. #vaccineswork🔗bit.ly/4rkkPpo

It’s this type of misinformation that is causing real harm and so much vaccine hesitancy in America! Yes you can still get COVID after vaccination that is called a breakthrough infection. But getting vaccinated decreases your chance of getting infected significantly
healthbot@thehealthb0t

Joe Rogan: "Did you get Covid?" Guest: "I got Covid like six times." Rogan: "Of course you did, because you got vaccinated. The people who didn't get vaccinated got it once or twice."

My latest @CIDRAP op-ed: The mRNA COVID vaccine myocarditis signal was real. The system caught it. Since 2022, no updated formulation has triggered a significant myocarditis signal. ACIP's March agenda is premised on a risk its own data say has resolved. cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/cidra…

Long COVID is affecting millions of Americans, and yet there is still so much confusion around what it is, how to prevent it, and what the future looks like. I thought I would shed light on this condition in my latest for @Forbes forbes.com/sites/omerawan…

'Hope for the millions of Americans suffering from Long COVID will rely on how much the U.S. supports affected individuals and to what extent the country invests in groundbreaking research to better understand the condition'.
