@LizHighleyman @MonicaGandhi9 Hi Liz: you missed why LATITUDE is so important clinically. Yes, for viremic patients who don’t want oral @MonicaGandhi9 data is essential but more of my non adherent pts state they have no preference oral vs LA. @ACTGNetwork 5359 shows superiority. That is practice changing!

EPIC!!!

Today: HIV walk San Diego! I have a new job working at @vcchealthcare So excited to join this team. Working towards #ETE. Dismantling stigma and spreading the gospel of #UequalsU in North County. I so miss @CrescentCare504 where I learned it all. @aidswalksd @LGBTCenter

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

I love Dr. @AshleyGWinter, thank you for your knowledge, wit, honesty and advocacy.
Please follow!!

I have lost over 50 followers since my anger tweets this AM. I had an abortion. It was a great decision. I have been vocal about it. Not sure why anyone is surprised about my feelings here.

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

McConnel blocked Garland. Fast-tracked Amy Coney Barrett. They play to win (to win, I mean dismantle the rights of our sisters). It is so abhorrent. We must #EndTheFilibuster and codify reproductive rights. Vote only for politicians who will do it! #AbortionRightsAreHumanRights

[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

My thoughts on the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

Proud moment to be an alumni of the NYU Infectious Disease fellowship. So many of my patients from NYC to NOLA have been impacted by gun violence. Thank you @BellevueHosp. #ThisIsOurLane @HIVMA #DoctorsForGunSafety @MatthewAkiyama

[NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue @BellevueHosp]

Gun violence is an epidemic that we must confront. We #WearOrange to spread #GunViolenceAwareness.

Today, our @NYCHealthSystem staff shared a moment of silence in honor of victims and all those impacted by gun violence.

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

@davidhogg111 Father of two & infectious disease physician. I have the pleasure of knowing @CrystalZhengMD who wrote this must read editorial. https://t.co/ZujyEfJILc. So many of my family, friends and patients have experienced or been traumatized by gun violence. #DoctorsForGunSafety

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

Re-reading @andrewrsorkin TL;DR: it’s time @Visa @AskAmex @Mastercard say “that it won’t do business with retailers that sell assault weapons, high-capacity magazines and bump stocks.” Fight for this! #Uvalde https://t.co/pK4cZzAfxs

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

The police could not enter the school for over 40 mins because of how “heavy the gunfire” was. #BanAssaultWeaponsNow #uvalde

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

This is just so💔Police afraid to enter when gunman has AK47. I can not blame them. Please consider @BillCassidy @SenBillCassidy and so sickening that you need military grade weapons to hunt feral pigs. Your responsibility is to protect our children! Lead! #BanAssaultWeaponsNow

[Ken Dilanian @KDilanianMSNOW]

It wasn’t just parents begging the police to go in. The children were calling 9-1-1 and pleading, as well. For a long time.

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

I urge #Louisiana to call our Senators to #EndGunViolence now! This morning, I called @BillCassidy : 202-224-5824 & @JohnKennedyLA: 202-224-4623. Advocated to #BanAssaultWeaponsNow, asked probing questions and led to conversation. Please flood their phones! #Uvalde

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

@OFIDJournal @onnnedu OFID could not have chosen anyone better than Dr. Nnedu. Very exciting!

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

@ABsteward And one more thing: Dr. Jha seems to really be pushing access to paxlovid beyond EPIC-HR. https://t.co/zygbAq6QnJ Interesting times....

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

@ABsteward Right: no data beyond EPIC-HR but EUA states "high risk for progression" and then links to CDC high risk def. including age, overweight and (?) htn. So as you know - real confusing on front lines esp. as we see many more cases. Also, New Orleans pharmacies are well stocked.

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

As a doctor, I know #AbortionIsHealthcare! Supported by our medical guidelines and standard of care. Can be lifesaving,💯supports women's dignity. Sickened by how LA legislature is targeting women & appalled that you are taking away my right to practice evidence-based medicine.

[Jason Halperin @JasonHalperin]

Must read account of how to end the HIV epidemic in Louisiana. Highlights: urgency of testing, rapid & sustained ART, #harmreduction, and #PrEP. Most importantly, #endstigma and embrace the power of #UequalsU. Great work @olivialandry1

[LSU Manship School Statehouse Bureau @ManshipXGR]

Louisiana worked hard to curb HIV transmission rates. Then the pandemic hit. An in-depth look at what happened by @olivialandry1 of the @ManshipSchool. https://t.co/aowpOGP7Uk @JasonHalperin @CrescentCare504
