A sign of the (fentanyl) times. If you have school age kids, your whole family should watch this one. There are MORE deaths from fentanyl in 2021 than in any other year before. dead on arrival (fentanyl documentary) youtu.be/iJgPmrLjkuo via @YouTube

MCEDs, once FDA approved and shown to provide clinical benefit, hold significant potential for early detection of cancer. Today’s step lays the path toward ensuring access to promising new technologies that can help end cancer as we know it, for everyone. bit.ly/MCED1

@DrTomFrieden @threadreaderapp unroll

Masks have been an effective tool throughout the Covid pandemic, despite erroneous claims to the contrary. 1/thread

Non-Tesla charging network is nowhere near ready for primetime.Esp @ElectrifyAm #EV efforts would be 20 yrs delayed w/o @Tesla and @elonmusk. Pls open your charging network (though it’s a heck of a comp adv!) 🛣️ EV road trip brings "range anxiety" #story3" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">axios.com/newsletters/ax… #axiosam

@liron @a16z 🙄🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Adam Neumann finally explains what his new @a16z-backed company Flow does. His pitch is... about what you'd expect. youtube.com/watch?v=BgK9KW…

@vijaypande @jaybradner We must be watching different things. 😎

@jaybradner Yea. And to overhear the planning of the play. Kinda like we'd do when playing for fun. Although they seem to have a surprising affinity purely for slant routes.

The flag football pro-bowl seems like beta test of a potential far future for football. Curious how it's going to be received.

@vijaypande It’s really tough to watch. Uninteresting if you ask me, which you didn’t. 🙂

@brucequinnmd @Uber I did. And it worked.

@MichaelPellini @Uber Try LYFT.

Hey @Uber, your service in #PaloAlto has gone to absolute hell. I never thought I’d be longing for the days of a “good” old fashion #taxi.

1 big thing: Cancer mortality falls #story0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">axios.com/newsletters/ax… #axiosfinishline

Great progress but plenty of opportunities to do better, especially wrt #prostatecancer Thanks @AmericanCancer for facts, figures, and analysis cancerletter.com/guest-editoria…

@StuartBlitz Innovative tech vs payers Any novel Dx test vs payers Digital solutions vs payers Everything vs payers 🙂 We still have work to do. (But there’s some progress on both sides)

What are the true health tech holy wars? 1) Quality of care vs. cost? 2) Patient access to data? 3) Interoperability? What else?

@ElectrifyAm is not ready for prime time. 1000 mile drive. Issues at all 5 of them so far. Assume an hour per stop.

@bceagles1987 @AmerCancerCEO @AmericanCancer ❤️Jeffy

@AmerCancerCEO @MichaelPellini @AmericanCancer Congratulations Mike! You know the difference you have had on my life and I tell people often that there will be cures to some cancers in our lifetime due to your efforts and incredible people like you. Thanks for all you do!!! Defying cancer for 5 years now!!!

To end cancer as we know it, precision oncology must be part of the solution. Toward that goal, we are thrilled that personalized medicine/life sciences/healthcare pioneer, and bona fide cancer fighter @MichaelPellini has joined the @AmericanCancer Board. bit.ly/3G9YC8d

@AmerCancerCEO @AmericanCancer The @AmericanCancer platform and network is a vital but often underappreciated national treasure for the advancement of all aspects of #cancercare across 50 states. I look forward to working with @AmerCancerCEO and the entire team on the next gen of ACS. It’s an honor. #Impact

@cwhogg @healthtechnerds 😂 or 😭Not sure which because it’s so true.

There are going to be a lot of dashed hopes and broken hearts in 2023. (source: @healthtechnerds)

@WillManidis @BillAckman @FTX_Official @SBF_FTX And they will be. For a very long time by the looks of it. Smart lives wasted.

@MichaelPellini @BillAckman @FTX_Official @SBF_FTX it was a joke mike :) they should be in prison for a long time, as should most of off shore crypto operations

It appears that @FTX_Official was a legitimate profitable exchange started by an MIT grad with backing from top VCs at a massive valuation. Why would @SBF_FTX commit fraud at Alameda and blow up FTX and risk a lifetime in jail? This reminds me of Madoff

@WillManidis @BillAckman @FTX_Official @SBF_FTX Just had to make sure. Didn’t want all of your followers to get the wrong impression!!! 🙂

@BillAckman @FTX_Official @SBF_FTX Brilliant thread. So true. I’ll bet 99% of it is spot on.
