We might have put the cart before the horse

Or the blunt before the research

But… the federal government banned research on cannabis for decades

So there you have it

[Harvard Medical School @harvardmed]

Although nearly 70% of states have legalized the medical use of cannabis products, some health care professionals are taking a closer look at its effect on the brain https://t.co/91nu85cllR

Tell me about it

I can’t treat obesity with any of the fda approved meds for example

Rapid antigen for return to work in healthcare workers
___
“Based on our data, a significant percentage of infected HCP may continue to shed high concentrations of SARS-CoV-2 during days 5 to 10
after their initial diagnosis”

Only 12% had a negative rapid antigen at day 5.

Wow. This hits hard

[Tim Skellett @Gurdur]

This was painfully clear at the time. The consequences of the delay were said very clearly *right at the time*.

Of the states that have passed abortion bans, not one has increased aid to pregnant mothers, assistance to needy families, or funding for Medicaid or children’s health insurance funds.

That’s how you know it’s not truly about the welfare of children.

Croup is awful

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

In children, the Omicron variant was associated with a ~3-fold increase in hospitalized Upper Airway Infection (UAI, such as croup) compared with prior variants https://t.co/C37OS3Rsb9 @JAMAPediatrics

With @CDCgov d/c distribution of IV artesunate (currently available at no cost under an IND protocol) on Sept 30, 2022 this drug critical to treat malaria will now cost $5,000 per vial. So treatment of malaria will cost ~ $50,000 for DRUG ALONE! Insane! @ASTMH @IDSAInfo

@DrFNA It only solidified my hate of PowerPoint and posters but yes it’s the ‘easiest’ way

100000 times YES! When Congress stared people were in their 30s now their in their 80s. Or maybe it’s the same people?!!!

Today the @CDC extended the mask mandate on planes & public transportation until May 3.

I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it a thousand times: If the penalty for breaking a law is a fine, then that law only exists for the poor.

I like Philly's metric of a 50% increase in COVID rates over a 7 day period as an indicator of putting masks back on.

[DrSossining @VOssining]

Honest question for #primarycare especially but any #MedTwitter or #NurseTwitter

Are you advocating strongly for patients to get their 2nd booster? Why? Why not?

[DrSossining @VOssining]

Are we no longer doing #monoclonal antibodies for #covid treatment? Local hospital no longer has sessions or med
