In today's @washingtonpost, I describe why it's prudent to remain careful despite the fall in hospitalizations & deaths in recent months.
It's all about Long Covid – both prolonged symptoms & the elevated long-term risk of MI, stroke, diabetes, & more. https://t.co/wypEQ2TJCJ
Great discussion of Annie’s story #IHICongress. @TerryFairbanks shares the journey from blaming & punishing an RN for an error, finding the true cause, apologizing to the RN & fixing the event review process moving forward. So many important lessons here!

Who will you honor this #NursesWeek? Join us in celebrating the 8,000 nurses @MedStarHealth who are among the most compassionate individuals we know. We invite you to share a kind message or make a philanthropic gift to thank them. Express your gratitude: https://t.co/D9qxNIzP9s
Data, data, everywhere & not a safety thought to think! ICYMI: 28 million patient safety reports available in different publicly available databases. It is time to develop the right analytics to take advantage of these data. There is a clear role for the @NPatientSafetyB & others
@NCIBillDahut @NCIResearchCtr @AmericanCancer Congrats on your new adventure!!! NCI is losing a great leader and @AmericanCancer is so lucky to have you aboard!!!
If airlines can ask us not to eat peanuts on board if there is someone with a peanut allergy, why won’t they ask us to wear a mask if there’s an unvaccinated 4 year old or cancer patient on board?
Deep concern, for certain. Thank you @NPRHealth for being a balanced conduit and reporting this story & to @sidneydekkercom for your leadership re: just culture. We have much to learn from this event, the disciplinary and legal challenges, & the verdicts.
Deep concern over nurse RaDonda Vaught's case and her wellbeing, and that of nurses everywhere https://t.co/zJ689mYWq7—once again evoking long expressed objections to criminalization: https://t.co/NcBpptyOXT
