@iraddoc1@briedavidson I feel like we should NOT forget about them and advocate for change instead. Where is all this ERAS money going towards that's more important than medical students in debt?
@G8Lianna@HunterBiden@littlestsmoke Most of us already pay money to health insurance companies. We can just pay that same money to an insurance company owned by the government (imagine Medicare), and it would be cheaper because we won't have healthcare CEOs and shareholders.

The Vitamin A here is to prevent complications from measles. Look up the sources instead of blindly believing AI summaries.
@Northland_NZ_@factpostnews There's no "suggested dose" for treating measles. RFK just said that Vitamin A treats measles without any explanation or instructions.
The thing about libel is it has to be untrue.
A Jewish baby born today in a West Bank community will have full rights in Israel, a vote in national elections, and access to civilian courts; a Palestinian baby born in that same community will have no democratic rights, tight restrictions on their movement, frequent harassment from settlers, and no access to justice beyond what Israel’s unaccountable military courts mete out.
That’s apartheid. It’s just literally apartheid.
If you think apartheid is really evil, such that it’s a terrible thing to say about a country, well, you’re right, it is. That’s why we have an issue here.
@ilai48@ClassicalSocdem According to your argument, you need to maintain an ethnostate. Many Jewish people are anti-zionist and believe in equal rights in an ideal situation.
@GAYERdoctor Thankfully: "Correction: This article was revised at 5:45 p.m. ET on May 13, 2026, after the Cleveland Clinic clarified that Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. did not operate robotic hands on a heart surgery patient."
@matthew_petti@JohnWakefieId A false quote about someone easily gets weaponized as a "Fake news" counterpoint. You don't want to be the person who cried wolf.
In May 2024, @IDF Sgt. Dolev Mor Yossef posted this photo on his Instagram - posing with two blindfolded Palestinian women.
The two women have not been seen since.
@John18Hamilton@fuqekgs She went to a Caribbean medical school. Those have practically unlimited seats. They take anyone who wants to pay and then they fail most of their class. (You pay tuition even if you fail out, so they make their money regardless)
@krustchef28091@KeithNewton@castlehillmom Not really. While Caribbean has no barrier for entry, it's harder to graduate, since the school is actively looking to fail most of the class. If your doctor made it to residency after graduating from a Caribbean school, they would be more than qualified.
@Jtduran@castlehillmom You don't even an MCAT. They take anyone who's willing to pay and rely on having most of their class fail out. Everyone gets accepted, it's a gamble on whether they can graduate, but the school gets paid regardless.
@karma_police2@castlehillmom She didn't. She went to a Caribbean school, which has unlimited medical school spots (it's a weird system). For residency, she went into family medicine, which has a shortage of applicants.
