Puerto Rico never recovered from the devastation of Hurricane Maria (2017). Now, the island is completely flooded and without electricity again.

Please DO NOT DONATE to the Red Cross or FEMA. Instead, send support to trusted local organizations [THREAD]:

There's been a growing movement of health equity detractors pushing back against the antiracist policies & practices medicine needs most.

In my latest in @GlobeIdeas I argue how antiracism in medical training is key to improving our healthcare system.

NEW: income inequality in US & UK is so wide that while the richest are very well off, the poorest have a worse standard of living than the poorest in countries like Slovenia https://t.co/gtHvhNsnuT

Essentially, US & UK are poor societies with some very rich people.
