Infectious diseases specialist: 10 things to know about measles MD Anderson’s Chief Infection Control Officer Amy Spallone, M.D., shares 10 facts about measles, including how to protect yourself, your loved ones and the community from the disease.

Great article Cancer & the measles outbreak. What it doesn't say is for the unvaccined-- an N95 will protect you from measles but you must be vigilant about wearing as droplets can stay active for over 2 hours.
And PLEASE WASH YOUR HANDS! #myelomamilestone www.mdanderson.org/cancerwise/i....

It’s #MyelomaActionMonth! My #MyelomaMilestone is that I started leading a support group for #myeloma patients and their care partners at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. When ground-breaking research is combined with education, the result is HOPE! Basic science saves lives! 💜😊 #Grateful 🩷💚

Looking forward to hearing more on this, would be a game changer if it works. While radiation can help control lesions and pain it further compromises weak bones and healthy marrow producing areas. #mmsm

“A study published last year in JAMA Network, a publication of the Journal of the American Medical Association, found that 22% of cancer patients did not receive the care their doctors prescribed because of authorization delays or outright denials.”

This is what #ash24 conferences are about, meeting and encouraging young learners. Both these @imfmyeloma.bsky.social scholars did a wonderful job on their posters looking into some great topics. Thank you to their mentors as well! #imfash24

“Now for the elephant in the room” addressing the specific infections in the studies, as every question section has questions on infection prevention thanks for getting to the point @dradsouza.bsky.social #ASH24 #IMFASH24

How can we get more educated and eMMpowered patients? Bring them to the same conferences as their doctors! @imfmyeloma.bsky.social #IMFASH24 #ASH24

Imagine, educated and #eMMpowered patients. That is what the @imfmyeloma.bsky.social goal is with bringing support group leaders to #ASH24 #IMFASH24
