@BradSpellberg@DrJMarine Thank you, Brad. I led an ED through the pandemic. It sucked. Maxed out on vents, young pts with strokes, full ICUs, MISC... Many lives were saved through hard work. Pure denialism isn’t helpful; documenting what worked, what didn’t, and what was an overcorrection is helpful.
Trump’s executive order to maximize water deliveries in California aimed to support firefighting efforts, but it all went to the wrong place. Water releases from Sierra Nevada reservoirs raised flood risks in Central Valley communities and depleted critical irrigation reserves. The water did not reach Los Angeles as intended but instead flowed into the Tulare Lake basin, reducing water availability for agriculture during dry seasons. Local officials expressed concerns over the lack of consultation and the risks posed by the sudden release, highlighting the challenges of managing California’s complex water needs.

@ZDoggMD Mine said that I should wear a mask but should avoid gowns and wear tighter lower cut shirts especially when bending forward to listen to the heart. Hmm.
@KPobgyndoc I also find it so hard! Smiling with my eyes doesn’t work. So now I have to convey a smile, approval, joy with words. It feels unnatural but has put them at ease. Sometimes I have to even tell them that I am smiling under this mask because... etc. it is so hard
