@Robert_E_Kelly I loved her confidence and the way she pushed open the door and strutted right in. Hope she never loses that spunk. Classic video-all parents can relate!

Wonderful experience presenting at #AAMC22 @GWSMHS

[Terry Kind, MD MPH @Kind4Kids]

Communicating the truth, understanding why misinfo/disinfo exists, and helping students and colleagues dispel myths and have better conversations with patients & families. Building relationships. Inspiring words from @DrAAndersonMD #AAMC22

Sold at just three years old, he never stopped looking for his family.

The slave trade shattered Black families, tearing husbands from wives, parents from children. In the 1880s, a blacksmith placed an ad, hoping to find his people. Today, more than a century later, his descendants are still trying to reunite the family. They need your help.

Starting Friday, August 5, all DC Health monkeypox clinics will offer limited walk-up vaccinations for eligible residents on Fridays. Vaccinations will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis (while supply lasts) to eligible residents who have not received a first dose.

@YDLCristoll She looks beautiful, strong, and wise. What a blessing that you had such a grandmother in your life.

The percentage of physicians who are Black men was the same in 2018 as it was in 1940.

2.6%

Let that sink in.

I am very sorry to learn of Paul Farmer’s passing. He has given so much to so many! Tangible opportunities as well as inspiration. Sending out prayers to surround his immediate family as well as ALL of us in his huge, extended, global family.

It is on us to continue the work.

“if a physician who is licensed engages in activity that causes harm, the state medical boards...look into the situation and make a judgment...”
—@TheFSMB's @DrHankChaudhry

State medical boards under pressure not to discipline docs spreading misinfo.
