If Twitter folds, I’d like to thank you all for allowing me to die on the following small mountain range of hills;

Women’s health is underfunded, undervalued, and underpaid relative to the immense skill involved

OB/GYN is too big and too complex to be contained into one field

[Ani Kardashian, M.D. @AniKardashianMD]

As the cost of food and rates of food insecurity in the U.S. continue to rise, we need to prioritize interventions that improve access to healthier foods, particularly in people with chronic diseases.

Congrats to so many amazing people who have made this happen! Most of whom don’t have twitter

@DrBloodandGuts @danbaik do you think we could try this?

[Scientific American @sciam]

“I would say, ‘You’re probably going to die and this could have been preventable—how sad is that?’ I would walk away. And that’s not who I am.” Many critical care doctors are exhausted, devastated and retraumatized. Please get vaccinated if you can. https://t.co/2rzswbBlxs

Cartoons are meant to be funny, and they are often funny as they make us uncomfortable with reality.

This cartoon hits on a reality.
But I don’t find it funny. 😡

And the gap is even more marked for Black, Hispanic and Native American women.
