In-hospital statin-use provides no mortality benefit among COVID-19 patients as captured in our recent publication. "Statins use and COVID-19 outcomes in hospitalized patients".#Covid_19 https://t.co/8pW8j9pk5a

The (L)MEWS is a valuable tool for in-patient monitoring & in recognizing clinical deterioration in low-resource settings, where bedside interventions can prevent disease complications, ICU admission, reduce care cost & prevent death.Check out this article https://t.co/KeVGpADJR7

Older adults with isolated elevated TSH may be misdiagnosed with subclinical hypothyroidism. This study finds that treatment with thyroid hormone supplement is associated with increased mortality in this population even when well adjusted. #geriatrics https://t.co/F9LHHd1IB8

@Cormac_Sheridan You are right. This is spelt out in this pre-print manuscript.

@AlasdairRoberts I believe you will be interested in this as well. Yet to be peer-reviewed though. Their ranking of country preparedness may be lacking one essential component 👇

[E_Abbey @EAbbey10]

@fifarahman @JohnsHopkinsSPH It appears one essential component in determining a country's preparedness may have been overlooked, i.e governmental response or for lack of a better word "leadership". A link to this preprint seeks to answer that question

Did the Global Health Security Index overestimate/ underestimate OECD countries pandemic preparedness? Simple but good read. #COVID19, #globalhealth.

#OnThisDay 39 years ago, #Smallpox was declared eradicated at the World Health Assembly, following an intensive global vaccination campaign by the @WHO. This remains one of #PublicHealth’s greatest achievements & is a powerful reminder that #VaccinesWork! https://t.co/ERZFQyWGvt

Technology has a place in building an efficient primary healthcare system but we shouldn't forget the need for a multisectoral approach, and all the other vital components of healthcare delivery.

A Big LEAP in the fight against malaria. #EndMalaria.

[Seth Berkley @DrSethBerkley]

A child dies from #malaria every 2 minutes. The malaria vaccine pilot launched in #Malawi today will be crucial to determine the part this vaccine could play in reducing the disease burden. #EndMalaria https://t.co/oWo6VH8wss

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

Let's be clear: women's reproductive healthcare is standard healthcare, and having access to routine screenings is so critical to preventing cervical cancer as well as other serious illnesses. Thank you @DrLeanaWen for sharing this powerful story. https://t.co/qOUlrj1rAa
