Boy on the left is unvaccinated

Boy on the right is vaccinated

RFK Jr thinks children are better off without vaccines

Do you agree?

[United Nations @UN]

2024 has become the deadliest year on record for humanitarians, driven by the war in Gaza.

“This violence is unconscionable and devastating to aid operations,” @UNReliefChief said, calling for the protection of humanitarians workers.

As a physician and scientist, I strongly oppose the nomination of RFK Jr.

Vaccines cause adults. Polio causes this. @DrsMeena

Doctors Without Borders received confirmation that Dr Obeid MSF orthopedic surgeon has been detained by Israeli forces w/ several medical staff from Kamal Adwan hospital during a military operation at the hospital. We are extremely alarmed by the detention of our colleague #Gaza

Or when 20 year olds stopped their insulin because they had no insurance

I started as a doctor when people were afraid to reveal health problems because then it would be a ‘pre-existing condition’

Or when the amount of care you received could be capped

Or when people delayed care because they just couldn’t afford it

A great book for JUNETEENTH. This is the one that cast a light on medical abuse and torture of African Americans. A well researched page turner by Harriet A. Washington.

Pediatrician Dr. Tanya Haj-Hasan and child psychiatrist Dr. Audrey McMahon are two of our staff who have worked in Gaza over the years: "There’s never a ‘post’ in post-traumatic stress syndrome. It's ongoing trauma, it's protracted trauma, it's one war after the other.”

This is absolutely heartbreaking. Bullying at the workplace & in academic is so real. But nobody wants to acknowledge or talk about it.

@DGlaucomflecken I agree it has to change. The amount of pressure medical students feel to publish risks encouraging fraudulence for the sake of residency.

Wow, there’s been a confirmed case of *locally-acquired* #malaria (falciparum!) in #Maryland per @MDHealthDept. Keep it in your differential diagnosis, mid-Atlantic #MedTwitter. Hoping that doesn’t get established in the region. Wear insect repellent if outdoors w/ exposed skin.
