Today I filed a bill to speed up vaccine administration with a focus on the most vulnerable among us, especially the elderly and communities of color. We must ensure equity is at the center as we race against new COVID variants.

It was so rewarding to spend the day speaking with state legislators along with this amazing MA delegation on issues critical to patient care, like access to telehealth, step therapy/prior auth regulations, and protection for providers on pandemic's front lines. #AADAontheHill

So proud of this study I worked on w/@EChrisDee @AMostaghimi & others @bwhdermatology. Dermatologists can play a crucial role in cancer care by enhancing management and treatment of skin toxicities from oncologic therapies like EGFRIs #oncodermatology #interdisciplinarycancercare
JAMA Dermatology@JAMADerm

Dermatologists can add value to #oncology care by raising awareness of appropriate treatment options and increasing adherence to evidence-based prophylaxis protocols for EGFRi-associated rash ja.ma/2NKYlxB ONC

Excited to share this study I worked on w/colleagues @bwhdermatology @PanFabBoston! We tested five skin protectants to prevent facial skin breakdown w/N95 mask use and found up to 88% comfort but 44% interference with qualitative mask fit - must repeat testing to ensure efficacy!
Arash Mostaghimi@AMostaghimi

In @JAADjournals, pilot study from Tram Bui & @ZiziYu15 w/@sara_j_li & others @bwhdermatology @PanFabBoston on facial skin protectants&N95 fit. All can interfere w/mask failure up to 44%. If you want 2 protect skin must repeat fit testing 2 ensure safety jaad.org/article/S0190-…

N95 fit test failure was associated with increased number of shifts worn. Duckbill worse than dome-shaped "health systems should closely evaluate N95 fit during extended use or reuse and limit duckbill mask use if alternatives are available" jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… @JAMA_current
