Wow

King's College Hospital in London has opened a rooftop garden for critical care patients. Its first patient, a 29-year-old woman dependent on feeding tubes, said the outdoor space gave her 'a real boost to keep on going

[MGB Neurosurgery @MGBneurosurgery]

For the third consecutive year, members of our MGB Neurosurgery Global Health Program traveled to West Africa to collaborate with local teams in expanding access to neurosurgical care.

This year marked the team’s first visit to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra, Ghana, with a focus on endoscopic endonasal pituitary surgery and epilepsy surgery.

Congratulations to every member of this incredible team for their dedication, partnership, and commitment to advancing global neurosurgery. And a massive thank you to all of the sponsors and partners who make this work possible #globalneurosurgery

1,000 World Cup tickets. $50 each. All for New Yorkers.

We fought hard to make the people’s game available to the people — and won.

Let the summer of soccer begin.

Nuuuh bro. Terrible GW37 for me 😭

[Ɛlolo @TheRealMawulolo]

@DGatorvi you still got eye on finishing top of the league ??

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

When we came into office, we uncovered a $12 billion budget deficit.

Today, I’m proud to say we brought it down to zero.

We didn’t close the gap on the backs of working people.

We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets and making historic investments in public housing.

Call it Pothole Politics. Call it Democratic Socialism. It's government that delivers for the people who make this city run.

That’s what New Yorkers deserve. And that’s what we will keep fighting for every single day.

I first met Clark Reynolds when he was just three years old at our Black History Month reception at the White House.

Over the last ten years, it's been wonderful getting updates about his life through his letters. Check out how he’s doing now:

If I tell you the number of times I’ve had to sit in plastic chairs at Korle-bu & 37 for infusions, you won’t believe it. And all these times were emergencies. The one in 2024, I almost passed out b’cos the place was congested and I could hardly breathe but yh let’s bash doctors

COVID time na the "incompetent doctors" were risking their lives whiles your darling politicians were busy looting money like there is no tomorrow

Incredibly touched by this. Please take a minute to read today. An important message for physicians everywhere

Hey New York, no one likes unnecessary scaffolding.

Thankfully, we have a plan — and John Wilson is here to help break it down.

For the first time in over 50 years, humans are Moonbound.

At 6:35 p.m. EDT (2235 UTC) NASA’s Space Launch System rocket and the Orion spacecraft lifted off from the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, sending four astronauts on a planned test flight around the Moon and back. https://t.co/0Q9ZB4IWVI

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

It was inspiring to watch the Artemis II launch yesterday — @NASA’s first crewed mission around the moon since 1972. Our space program has always captured an essential part of what it means to reach beyond what we thought was possible, and I hope the four brave astronauts on this mission will inspire a new generation to follow in their footsteps.

[NASA @NASA]

Liftoff.

The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.

Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

Out 20 ranked applicants, 5 of them are from UGMS, that’s 25%.

Private equity firms bought 500 hospitals. Death rates in their emergency rooms went up 13%. They fired 12% of the staff. Then they paid themselves billions in dividends.

A Harvard study just confirmed what doctors already knew: people are dying so investors can hit quarterly targets.

Exactly what happens. A PE firm buys a hospital using debt. The debt gets placed on the hospital's balance sheet, not the firm's. Now the hospital owes hundreds of millions it never borrowed. To service that debt, the hospital cuts costs. Costs mean nurses.

The numbers from the Harvard/University of Chicago study are horrifying. After PE acquisition, emergency department salary spending dropped 18.2%. ICU salary spending dropped 15.9%. Hospital-wide employees were cut 11.6%. Emergency department deaths rose 13%, seven additional deaths per 10,000 visits.

A separate study found patients undergoing surgery at PE-acquired hospitals had 17% higher odds of dying within 90 days.

Steward Health Care, owned by Cerberus Capital, filed bankruptcy with $9 billion in debt after closing hospitals across Massachusetts. The CEO lived on a $40 million yacht while emergency rooms went dark. Eight hospitals serving 2 million people nearly disappeared because a PE fund extracted more cash than the system could survive.

The private equity industry has poured over $1 trillion into healthcare. They operate a quarter of ERs nationwide. This isn't going away.

The investing angle nobody talks about.

Non-PE hospital operators like HCA Healthcare (HCA) and Tenet (THC) are the direct beneficiaries. Every time a PE hospital closes or deteriorates, patients flow to the nearest competitor. HCA has returned 1,200% since 2011. Patient volume from PE closures is a structural tailwind nobody's pricing in.

Medical staffing firms (AMN Healthcare, Cross Country) charge premium rates specifically because PE hospitals cut staff. The staffing shortage IS the business model for these companies.

The disruption play: outpatient surgical centers (SCA Health, now part of UnitedHealth) are pulling profitable procedures out of hospitals entirely. PE-owned hospitals lose their highest-margin surgeries to outpatient, and the death spiral accelerates.

Pull up tradevision and monitor healthcare M&A alerts, hospital closure filings, and patient volume migration data. When a PE-owned hospital announces "restructuring," the patient volume shift to competitors like HCA starts within 30 days. That 30-day window is when the competitor's earnings revisions haven't updated yet. Free to try.

(a private equity firm bought your local hospital. borrowed $500 million in the hospital's name. fired 12% of the nurses. emergency room deaths rose 13%. then they paid themselves dividends. nobody went to prison. they're currently buying another hospital.)
