“All wars are a choice, and they hasten destruction of people and the planet. A redoubled counter movement from civil society and global health communities is needed to make health the fight of our lives. Health is a bridge to peace, and peace a prerequisite for health”

You should check out the LWT segment from last night. Very well done…

Friends keep friends from…becoming a Cybertruck person
I’m trying to be optimistic but that was awful
So also related to Whitney Houston?
Almost all side effects on statin labels not caused by statins, finds major meta-analysis; authors call for labels to be updated.

All of this is entirely disqualifying for both Makary and Means. Natural sunlight does NOT prevent death from measles or being paralyzed from polio. Lifespans have never been longer due to amazing scientific advancements, but reality TV culture will tear it all down through the empowerment of quacks
This week’s main story is about Twitter. Or “X” if you’re a hall monitor. How it went from bad to worse under Elon Musk, how it’s impacting us all, and why there’s exactly one account there that we’re still fine with.

Unbelievable Olympic hockey game. Americans & Canadians played one for the ages. Canadians blow us out if not for Hellebuyck! 🥅 🥇
Interesting op-ed balancing poetry & pragmatism of the heart. “We follow our hearts, have affairs of the heart, open our hearts, & give our hearts to our lovers. Nobody wants our spleens or our kidneys.” Ouch!
But how did the plot escalate a Mediterranean diet to a cardiac cath? Something’s missing?
This is such terrible advice that I should use it to update my example of when stretching your y-axis is misleading, and truncating your y-axis is fine.
Hint: Only a fraction of people in a trial will get infected regardless.
Five years after the rollout of Covid-19 vaccines started, it seems the mystery of why the Astra-Zeneca and J&J vaccines led to a rare but deadly side effect of unusual blood clots and bleeding has finally been solved.
It's a fascinating case of molecular mimicry that may help make vaccine safer.🧪
RIP to a man who helped save countless number of lives...and was fiercely opposed to the current war on science and public health
We need to stop our government's lies.
We need to stop the killing.
We need to stop our government's lies about the killing.
This man may have represented the best of us.
Only to be killed by what may be the worst of us.
Enough is enough.
This is what a rocket launch looks like from space.
this baseball game...
I was fortunate to be able to spend one month on Dr. Bartlett's critical care elective in medical school. He was a dedicated physician who examined each patient with fresh perspectives of intellectual curiosity. Quite an amazing life story. RIP legend!
Not sure if any non-AI bot really cares, but I'm going to take a month break from social media to clear my headspace and restore my attention span to factory settings as I study for my 10year recertification exam. Stay sane and healthy out there!
Trump’s attack on vaccines yesterday — delivered from the White House — “was the most dangerously irresponsible press conference in the realm of public health in American history” @pauloffit.bsky.social told us.
More on Trump’s false claims with @lenasun.bsky.social
My deepest shock is watching Oz’s eyes absorbing the scene in front of him. I heard Oz present a talk at a cardiovascular conference many years ago. He knows better. How can someone so cheaply abandon their medical principles like this? Hippocrates rolling in his grave watching this fire.
Any qualified medical professional has an instant reaction of shock and horror in hearing this clip. This is dangerous
A 19-page article in the National Geographic that covers the work of @uramakri.bsky.social @ncbsbangalore.bsky.social @tifr.res.in on black tigers, mutation load and corridors for tiger migration.
Important story and impactful work.

i don’t think people on bluesky understand the severity of this situation.
i woke up to literally hundreds of texts from friends and family thinking about either moving back home to india or applying to other countries for jobs. this includes me.
I have to say, did not realize that the path to Turkmenistan as a country was so direct
Operation Warp Speed was arguably one of the most successful policy initiatives in recent history, accelerating vaccine delivery that saved millions of lives.
It’s remarkable to see some now urging the leaders who backed it to disown the achievement.
So sir…does this also apply to seatbelts and childseats in cars? Should Florida parents just be given the right in all matters related to their children? Maybe they should have the right to give them a small bump of cocaine in the morning if that fits their worldview?…This is absolutely bonkers
