I worked an unexpected overnight last night This 🧵 is an exhausted, muddy-headed takedown of the historic but continued saddling of medical trainees with ridiculous work hours There will be no data and I will appeal to emotion a lot Here we go! #MedTwitter 1/

In the year 2022, I don’t want to read anywhere that “Black race” is a risk factor for disease. 📣For the last time: Anti-Black racism is the risk factor for disease. AntiBlackness is the vector of illness. White Supremacist Patriarchal Capitalism is the etiology of malady.

Sore throats don't kill people. COVID does. Car accidents haven't increased. COVID has. The real crisis are when leaders like @marcorubio and @AGToddRokita deceive the American people.
Marco Rubio@marcorubio

Record numbers testing positive for a sore throat isn’t a crisis And people in the hospital for car accidents testing positive isn’t a surge The real crisis is the irrational hysteria which has people with no symptoms waiting hours for a test or missing work for 10 days

Sitting in a doctor's office to get a latent TB prescription because my quantiferon turned positive despite religious N95 use. Weird emotions - kinda proud to be working with at-risk populations, and also kinda amused I got a thousands-year old disease while treating COVID

Today is the first time as I looked around the ICU at the patients and at the staff, that I’m not sure if we are gonna make it through this intact without losing something of ourselves.

When doctors and nurses stop caring for people who made bad life decisions we lose ourselves. Love them. Care for them. All of them. Equally.

American healthcare: Last week I gave a patient zoledronic acid 4 mg IV (Zomeda) for hypercalcemia. Cost the hospital $50. Today I ordered zoledronic acid 5 mg IV (Reclast) for osteoporosis and the pharmacy rejected the order because it costs $3000.

What exactly is the cytokine storm in COVID-19? Throwing the term casually here and there, I realized I was wondering the answer to this very question.

Tell your more junior colleagues (med students, interns, residents, etc.) when you realize a mistake. Model performing the cognitive autopsy. “I anchored on re-expansion edema and did not pay enough attention to the tachycardia which delayed my recognition of the hemothorax.”

The patient is NOT "a poor historian." The patient isn't a historian at all! The patient is the primary source. YOU are the historian.
