"The Colorado State Laboratory confirmed and notified the Center for Disease Control (CDC) of the case. The individual is a male in his 20s who is currently in isolation in Elbert County and has no travel history." No travel history = this was picked up in the community.

This pup is named after the last thing you ate. What is the pups name?

@CoryTCooper The entire country is surging now rather than isolated cities. In 2020, we had drs, nurses, EMTs & equipment pour into hard hit areas from less affected areas. No reserve in early 2021. HCWs, already depleted, will face (unimaginable in US) #bioethics decisions to ration care.

@Dinahsor2 @DBelardoMD I find that the only way I can convince a patient to not getting an unnecessary vitamin D order is if they have to pay for it. If “someone else” pays for it they want it.

@DBelardoMD BTW, Medicare will charge patients $300 plus for Vit D lab and the patient won't even find out till 6 months later when they get their bill...then you get the complaining phone call.

I wish I had a dime for every healthcare provider who says everyone needs universal vitamin D supplementation 🙃

@DBelardoMD To be honest, sometimes it is just easier for me to order the Vit D test, when I’m being bullied than for me to convince them they don’t need it. 5 second yes vs. 20 min debate. 🤦🏻‍♀️

What I have learned from the comments: there are many people who REALLY want everyone to take vitamin D supplements 😬 But *wanting* vitamin D to cure everything doesn’t... change the data that it doesn’t ❤️🙃

@sarahcpr 🙋🏻‍♀️

Is it mean to get my husband a gift I know he won't like so that I can have it

@egaly @edyong209 I hope you feel better soon. As the surge dies down the long-haulers will be the next wave of burden that #COVID19 brings. There needs to be more awareness about this long-hauler syndrome especially to those who do not fear death due to #covid19

@drnikkistamp @FredWuMD Yes the excellent medical care and timely diagnosis was taken for granted. And you also cannot discount how nutrition, stress management, movement, positive psychology, all tenets of Lifestyle Medicine, which is evidence based, sustains longterm health. #lifestylemedicine

@FredWuMD Exactly. Not the excellent medical care he received.

Most primary care physicians do not know much about nutrition, sleep, exercise, positive psychology, and the affect of relationships and stress. I feel Lifestyle Medicine can help bridge this gap. #lifestylemedicine #physicianwellness
