FDA’s Food Safety Chief Resigns The chief said the loss of critical employees overseeing the nation’s food supply made his work impossible. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nation’s new health secretary, has pledged to gut the division.

I am happy to say the "Followers only" reply setting is getting implemented. We're also adding a way to set default reply settings

If you want your posts to default to "Followers only," that'll become an option

Bodies are still being pulled from the Potomac.

The President and extreme MAGA Republicans are blaming women and people of color for the deadly plane crash.

At the same time, they are dismantling the Federal Aviation Administration as we know it.

Disgusting.

An image with two subject. On the left a computer screen showing Flu, RSV, and Covid numbers from a local children's hospital. There is almost no Flu or RSV.

On the right is a contemporary pediatrics cover saying that flu, covid, and RSV would all hit at the same time.

I don't know if regular people will ever realize how insane it was that we literally did not have a flu or RSV season in January 2021.

#Chinese users are already getting annoyed at Americans downloading and using RedNote app which is the TikTok alternative and started posting about it! Well this one's way rude though.

Maybe you are right. This post is not in context of business i think. The said eye doctor is talking about only his content/teaching reaching out to lesser people. Gosh

I never used the clock app so don't assume i was streaming that weirdness. Its shared widely on other platforms, the sort of contents gained views. There's similar buttons on instagram for everything. What you want and how you need to connect. Its much easier and a more validated platform.

If you are to spread awareness and knowledge as a health care practitioner, 'bits of differences' won't bother you. The useless viral content on tiktok with women even making face masks with jizz showed how 'useful' the algorithm was.

That same algorithm works on instagram with bits of differences. The only reason many are mourning its stoppage is the 'career' they started building out of clock apps, and i am sure you shant be one of them.

Editorial on drugs for obesity. 

Excerpt here:

The need for lifelong support has implications for individuals and public health

More than a billion people worldwide are living with obesity. After many years of failed attempts to support them in losing weight and optimising their health through lifestyle intervention programmes, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are being heralded as a magic bullet for this global problem.

Public discourse on these drugs has focused on their off-label use by celebrities, their exorbitant pricing, and severe supply shortages. But these issues are distractions from difficult questions about the long term implications of using these drugs in holistic obesity care systems, for both individual patients and for public healthβ€”namely, for whom, for what purpose, and how should these drugs be used when taking a lifecourse view of care for people with obesity?

Obesity is a hugely complex issue.

An excellent editorial this month in the @bmj.com from @drjuanfranco.bsky.social and @iddocjen.bsky.social on how the new drugs now available aren’t necessarily a magic bullet.

Even if they are, lifelong support is needed for those affected.

We're definitely seeing a lot of flu in my ER lately. It's not too late to get the vaccine! Even if you have side effects from the vaccine, it's nothing compared to full blown flu symptoms, especially if you have risk factors like lung disease or immunosuppression. Please get your flu shot!πŸ¦žπŸ©ΊπŸ’‰
