Meet The Comedian Who Is Helping Teens Deal With Their Emotions Have you seen the amazing teen mental health videos Hari Kondabolu made with the Child Mind Institute?

I never would have guessed that one of my favorite comedians would start making mental health videos for teenagers. Yet that is exactly what happened when the Child Mind Institute paired up with @harikondabolu.bsky.social to make an amazing series.

Photo of a navy blue Mac laptop with 2 stickers slightly above and lateral to the Apple logo. On the left is a circular Journal of Hospital Medicine-branded sticker. The top half of the circle is a light blue, the bottom half is dark blue and a thin yellow line bisects the two halves. The top half has the Journal of Hospital Medicine logo in white and the bottom half has, also in white, #HowWeHospitalist and the society of hospital medicine logo. The image on the right is a white square with rounded edges. It resembles how app me appear on phones and tablets. In black lettering are the words “Sanford Guide” at the top and “Pediatric Acute Care” at the bottom. Centered in between are two smaller squares in purple with images in white. The left has a stick figure baby head and the right is a stethoscope; these represent the Sanford Guide to Pediatric Acute Care logo.

Doctors, nurses, researchers, and public health advocates agree that the removal of critical datasets causes ongoing harm. AcademyHealth joined a federal lawsuit to restore access to public data. @aaronecarroll.bsky.social highlights what’s at stake on our blog:

Screenshot of the epidemiology and etiology section of the Bite Wound Infections topic from the Sanford Guide to Pediatric Acute Care. Of particular relevance to this post is that approximately 50% of cat bites end up infected and Pasteurella species bacteria from the cat’s mouth commonly cause the infection.

Also, as others have noted, cat bites are high-risk for infection.

General considerations, not medical advice
✔️ Ask whether you need tetanus toxoid. Generally recommended if 10+ years since last tetanus containing vaccine
✔️ In future, soap & water probably better than hydrogen peroxide, which kills bacteria but also harms tissue, impairing wound healing.
