We are working towards making new borne screening for g6pdd a reality in 49 states in US given the recent success in New York State. If you are keen to make a difference and are passionate about this topic please register here: https://t.co/iXMbsIAZIs
@TheChiefNerd Ivermectin and Methylene Blue might be great for the majority, but not for the 4-5% of population that has the g6pd enzyme deficiency. If we test for the deficiency we can consider much more effective treatment strategies! New York State is one of the few that test for it!
G6PD Deficiency Foundation recently published a short video for parents whose babies have just been diagnosed with g6pd deficiency. New York State now mandates this test and a lot of hospitals are looking for content to help navigate this condition!

Come over to booth 257 at the PAS conference in Washington DC, USA from the 28 April - 1 May to learn more about g6pd deficiency and the urgent need for testing for this condition!

@SprawlBusters Thank you Al. Warehouses do not belong in a residential layout! Being the largest Warehouse project in New Jersey on the largest contiguous parcel of undeveloped land in the EAST COAST I do not understand why the project of this size is not getting the attention it deserves!
@JeffTittel Mr Tittel. Saw your article on the west Windsor warehouse project in Dec 2020. The entire town has woken up to protest! We need your help and support. https://t.co/faSb9eVGUW. Just because our mayor is in the warehouse biz, we do not need to become west warehouse!

For those of you tweeting about g6pd deficient tests not being required during pregnancies, heres an interesting statistic. 1 in 5000 new borns in US have severe jaundice related to g6pdd. If left untreated leads to Kernicterus. i.e. brain damage. https://t.co/44nhEfpRu1
Finally a clinical study on g6pdd and Covid-19. Also a great relief for the g6pdd community! Is glucose-6-phosphatase dehydrogenase deficiency associated with severe outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients? | Scientific Reports https://t.co/RaiHiMsKx8
@Mdurukan3 There are a lot of posts on my Twitter feed on vaccines. Some governments like Singapore have given residents the green signal. There are webinars that suggest the benefits outweigh the risks. My son and I recently got the 1st dose of Pfizer vaccine on his hematologists advice.
Very interesting research on the impact of COVID-19 for the Sardinian population! “Another very interesting finding is the higher frequency of G6PDH enzyme deficiency in patients with severe symptoms, compared to pauci-symptomatic patients (25.6% vs 9.8%). https://t.co/ayj4CROvID
