More gaslighting from the establishment. It’s not a “vaccine.” It was created by the military and foisted on civilians like guinea pigs. I’ve never seen such harm from any other product on the market. It should have been pulled a long ago. Those who don’t speak out are guilty of crimes against humanity.
Prof. Akiko Iwasaki@VirusesImmunity

Vaccines save millions of lives. Unfortunately, a small fraction of people develop debilitating diseases after vaccination. Thank you @WSITYpod for having me on the show to discuss post-vaccination syndrome. Please listen and understand what the patients are going through and why many of them lost trust in the medical and scientific establishment. We must do better.

@bfhermann @grok @adamcarolla @EithanDHaimMD They absolutely do in hospital & everyone has known this for years. The patients diagnosed with COVID infection are often in severe or critical condition & not able to report symptoms. Even the study authors recognized this obvious flaw.

@grok @bfhermann @adamcarolla @EithanDHaimMD @grok, this is false. These cases were not based on symptoms & other confirmation. They were based on troponin elevation alone, which is a common means of diagnosis in hospitals today b/c it adds to the amount of money hospitals are paid for the patient.

@bfhermann @adamcarolla @EithanDHaimMD These infection studies are very poor quality. They use troponin elevation alone to diagnose myocarditis, which is a completely invalid diagnostic method. Troponin will increase in many seriously ill patients but it is not indicative of myocarditis.

𝐗 has become the digital equivalent of a poorly maintained public restroom at a major train station; everyone passes through, some urgently, others just loitering, but the space itself is fundamentally a cesspool where the worst impulses collect & fester unchecked.

My thoughts on US medicine can be summed up in a few words: Emergency care: Awesome, wouldn’t be anywhere else in the world. Chronic care: Total and utter crap. Completely sold out to Big Pharma. Huge percentage of interventions and drugs useless.

The replies to this post are hilarious. Many of the "no wrong way to play" types are honestly the most vitriolic jerks out there on how to play. They cannot comprehend NOT railroading their players or allowing players to have input in the game world that may alter their railroad novelization plans. I've felt for a while there are two different hobbies. There are pen-and-paper RPGs, and then there are storytime non-game practitioners who use the same language as TTRPGs in order to tell bad novels and fan fiction. But they are not playing pen-and-paper RPGs. They are doing something else. The sooner we acknowledge this difference, the sooner we can stop talking past each other. We are not in the same hobby and not playing the same game or games or even games at all. It's like people who play mobile games telling people who play Counter-Strike they are into the exact same thing.

DM advice that so thoroughly ruined an entire generation of D&D that the company is slowly discontinuing their own product. It's taken years for new gamers to shake off their stupor, and they might not fully recover. #dnd

@avidseries Throughout junior high, high school, and college, I ran almost all distances at one point or another from 100m to 3200m. The 800m is the toughest race of them all.

If you've followed me for very long, you know I like track. This is my favorite race of all time. Most people think Dave Wottle ran too slow at first, and then had to make up for it in a desperate kick at the end of the race. But this isn't true. In fact, each of his four 200 meters splits were roughly the same: 26.4, 27.1, 26.6, and 26.2 seconds. It was the other runners who miscalculated. They started too fast, and then paid the price later in the race. Wottle ran the perfect race: Disciplined, even-paced, didn't panic even when he was far behind, and then had plenty left in the tank for the final stretch.

It may be the greatest race of all time and a reminder of not ever giving up

@kevinmd So you’re saying the earnings gap is due to negotiation skill? Basically the same as every legit study that has measured this topic.

Same hours. Same training. Same patients. $21,000 less in pay. We unpacked this massive disparity on a recent episode of The Podcast by KevinMD featuring Off Call co founder Jake Horowitz and ER physician Dr. Resa E. Lewiss. When the data dropped showing women emergency medicine doctors make $21,000 less than men, the immediate response from many male physicians was denial. The common refrains were "Not in my hospital" or "They must work fewer hours." Wrong. The study rigorously controlled for hours, patient volume, and experience. The gap is real, and it is systemic. It starts at the very first contract when women are often not coached to negotiate. That initial disparity compounds over a career, potentially costing female physicians up to $1,000,000 by retirement. This is not just a women's issue. A burnt out, unfairly compensated physician directly impacts patient care. We all deserve better, and patients deserve doctors who are valued equally. It is time to demand salary transparency and hold hospital systems accountable. Silence only protects the status quo. If you are in healthcare leadership, this is your wake up call. Catch up on this recent episode and join the conversation. Link to the episode is in the comments! 👇 #MedTwitter #WomenInMedicine #PayGap #EmergencyMedicine #Healthcare #Equity #Transparency #EqualPay #PhysicianCompensation #KevinMD #HealthcareLeadership

@Bengal_DPT @DrDiGiorgio We considered it a draw. We were both pretty banged up but we finished our shift of course. The chief is one of my best friends to this day.

An internal medicine colleague of mine once told me that their chief resident refused to have more than 8 patients on their service because any more would be unsafe. Another got written up for asking a med student what their thought process was for coming up with a diagnosis. Another was reprimanded for criticizing an intern in front of the team instead of privately.
