@fin91982798 @jfitzgeraldMD @allisonoconn Bed rest is not part of modern OB/Gyn practice. Nor are weekly cervical checks. Diet restrictions during labor are based in the anesthesia literature (and should prob not be debated without involving an ob anesthesiologist!)

@jfitzgeraldMD @allisonoconn I feel like a lot of the things I (or pregnant friends) were asked to do/not do seemed to not have evidence behind them at the time of the rec. Bed rest, weekly cervical checks with no medical reason, no eating during labor, diet restrictions, etc etc. Maybe it’s changed?

What would happen if migrants on boats with limited resources were also seen as brave explorers gifted with curiosity and wonder for depths unknown, I wonder.

I challenge Michael Jordan to a debate on how to score despite a double team. If he does not accept my challenge, I am right about all basketball things, and Michael Jordan is wrong. This is legally binding, because I said it on a podcast.

The thing about “debate me” bros wanting to debate scientists is that you can’t effectively argue with a professional public arguer without becoming a public professional arguer, and most scientists are (and should be) professional scientists.

This! The math is not mathing. So much health system bloat. Hospitals have entire teams to address these unnecessary barriers from insurance companies. Hurts patients. Delays care. Contributes to burnout. So many reasons for no. Ban #priorauth
Amy Faith Ho, MD MPH@amyfaithho

So why does #priorauth exist?! To “contain costs” by insurers… Doesn’t sound terribly cost effective, does it? 😑 $58 million in labor cost alone of initial submission, not including the labor cost of denials/appeals and not including the cost of ED/hospital stays that results from delays/denials… Sounds like it’s time to get rid of #priorauth, no?

Carolina Abortion Fund

NC GOP has overriden Governor Cooper’s veto. Monster bill restrictions will take effect July 1st. If you hear anyone calling this a 12-week ban, correct them. This was designed to gut access in this state, especially for people traveling. Absolute travesty.

A lot of folks were wondering who the 5 senators were who voted against guaranteeing workers reasonable break time to pump breast milk. (It passed 92-5.) They were: --John Cornyn (R-Tex.) --Mike Lee (R-Utah) --Pat Toomey (R-Penn.) --Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) --Rand Paul (R-Ky.)

Alyssa Harad is at the sky place. DM for invites.
Keep thinking about the absence of grief and death from the policy discussions around learning loss. This rhetoric about how the US is going to fall behind rather than talking about why more US kids lost their beloved parents, aunts, grandparents, caregivers, teachers.

Right now, Democrats in the #NCGA & Gov. @RoyCooperNC are holding the line for millions - not just in NC but across the entire South - to be able to access reproductive health care & abortion. On Nov. 8th, your vote will determine if we can keep that power cosmopolitan.com/politics/a4153…
