Since hospitals around the country are currently understaffed due to Covid infections and healthcare workers are burnt out from this 4th/5th (????) surge, let’s resurface the idea of cancelling students loans of all healthcare professionals.

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

I’m going to be straight with my like…16 followers. As a military urologist if scrotal swelling was a vaccine side effect I would be the first to know. No one is more attentive to their testicles than men in the military.

One day I will tell my story in full. But for now: Trust your instincts. Know your worth. Be brave enough to forge your own lane if it does not exist. Choose your mentors wisely. And above all, do not be afraid to step into your purpose, because it’s absolutely beautiful here

@AdamRodmanMD @AndreMansoor When you have physical exam skills like @AndreMansoor, who needs labs?

[Joe Cumming @JoeCumming4]

@LGlaucomflecken Are you a Letterkenny fan?!

[Joe Cumming @JoeCumming4]

@AdamRodmanMD @AndreMansoor Agreed. Also occasionally useful to aid risk stratification for PE.

My cast list for any new Lord Of The Rings is also the cast list of Ted Lasso, a thread.

Let's start with an easy one: Aragorn. No fucking second breakfasts for any fucking hobbits or any other fucking muppets with this Aragorn.

[Joe Cumming @JoeCumming4]

@KelseyObGyn Yes

[Joe Cumming @JoeCumming4]

If I told you your chance of survival after catching COVID is 99.5%, you might think that’s pretty good.

But if I gave you tickets to see your favorite NFL team play and told you out of the 70,000 people in attendance, 350 people will die suddenly and at random, would you go?

Not every positive urine drug screen is a true positive.
