I recently got to speak with Dr Rich O’Neill about the history and successes of public health, current #publichealth challenges, and separating the medical from the political. #NPHW Checkup From the Neck-Up on ⁦@WCNYCONNECTED⁩ wcny.org/checkup-from-t…

If this can happen to a president with secret service, if this can happen in Parkland with a cop assigned to our campus, if this can happen in Uvalde with hundreds of police. STOP TALKING ABOUT GOOD GUYS WITH GUNS AND START DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THE GUNS.

Today @WCKitchen lost several of our sisters and brothers in an IDF air strike in Gaza. I am heartbroken and grieving for their families and friends and our whole WCK family. These are people…angels…I served alongside in Ukraine, Gaza, Turkey, Morocco, Bahamas, Indonesia. They are not faceless…they are not nameless. The Israeli government needs to stop this indiscriminate killing. It needs to stop restricting humanitarian aid, stop killing civilians and aid workers, and stop using food as a weapon. No more innocent lives lost. Peace starts with our shared humanity. It needs to start now.

@STFM_FM published our methods paper for the CERA chair survey in @PRiMER_Journal ! If anyone is interested in educational survey research in #FamilyMedicine, this is a great model journals.stfm.org/primer/2024/pa…

Very interesting study. Using a huge cohort and an impressively rigorous design, the authors found that COVID-19 vaccines likely reduced the risk of cardiovascular events by 70-90% for people who caught COVID-19

I’ve said it before I’ll say it again, can we not focus on how cringe the terms are and instead think about how scary the level of censorship is

This article is ridiculous. I spent 10 months in the International Legion and seven of those in Kharkiv on it near the zero line including the 2022 Kharkiv counter offensive. A US, Special Forces, ODA could impart some very basic skills to the basic trainees and staff in Yavoriv. But to be completely honest the 8 weeks polygon training the Ukrainian recruits go through is intense and based on real experience of Ukr combat veterans w/10 years of fighting the Russia with all of its resources. Fact: Ukrainian, SSO/SOF & GRU are going to be training the American SOF in the coming years. For example, 1.5 and 2 km kill shots by snipers are considered nstandards, not limits. US soldiers, no matter how experienced in Iraq and Afghanistan have no clue what is happening on the ground out here. There is limited artillery support, intelligence at the Battalion level is what you collect visually or by drone, there is NO air support. Communications are what you make. You stay on the zero line for weeks and in artillery range for MONTHS. Insertions and extraction are done by pick up truck, APC or on foot. The artillery environment is insane. Now add Lancet & Russian FPV drones and random ballistic missiles falling from the sky. This level of intensity of combat hasn’t been seen since Vietnam and Korea for the US Army. Give the Ukrainians the weapons they need without limit and this war will end, and Ukraine can start sharing lessons learned.

This study suggests that a student-led quality performance chart review is feasible, and could be used to improve performance on quality measures requiring proactive steps by the care team prior to the patient’s appointment. @aristova_maria @NU_IntMed journals.stfm.org/primer/2024/ar…

This intervention by @radeksikorski 🇵🇱 in the 🇺🇳 Security Council today will be a classic. Not much left of 🇷🇺 after that.

Brilliant response to the Russian ambassador.
