Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social

Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

@mcuban.bsky.social as physicians, we are fighting misinformation and disinformation daily in the clinic but also online. As an endocrinologist/ obesity medicine specialist, especially with the buzz of #glp1 I always tell individuals it is so important to discuss any questions with your doctor.

Still looking for my colleagues and medical community here on @bsky.app

Algorithm work some magic!

and current friends, connect me to others here please! 🤝

In 44,992 people, the 10-year cumulative risk of incident #diabetes was 12.8%.

Fasting plasma glucose, age, BMI, and male sex were all associated with development of diabetes⚠️
