@gtbynum Be cautious with that reasoning. When testing is primarily directed toward the sickest individuals, it can be a reflection of spread, especially if positive results exceed the increase in tests done.

[G.T. Bynum @gtbynum]

From 12 cases in Tulsa yesterday to 27 today. We should expect confirmed cases to rise over the next week as testing capacity increases. The day-by-day increases we will see are more a reflection of this capacity than an indicator of the rate at which the virus is spreading.

@GovStitt Limited action is not enough. We are already beyond 19 counties. Look here for decision guidance. https://t.co/fgODecLY7O

@GovStitt Confusion in OK about who can do COVID-19 tests. Health Dept telling pts to see PCP; PCP telling ppl to call Health Dept. Docs not sure what to do.

@NYTHealth The problem is nicotine, a remarkably addictive drug. Delivery through the lungs to the brain is very efficient.

I know a lot of people who don't want to quit — but would rather be non-smokers/non-vapers

Before a particular surgery: Know the surgeon, know the hospital and importantly, know how many of the surgery they have done.

The State of Montana Health Care & Benefits Division won one of Validation Institute's awards this year. One grandmother's relentless work to make a big change in health economics is a lesson to employers everywhere. https://t.co/oHVmYzJnEC

GAO study shows you are more likely to get an out-of-network air ambulance service — and thus surprise balance bills.

New study from Rice University shoots a big hole in the contention that physician-hospital integration improves quality. Likewise, increasing market concentration through mergers also isn't producing quality improvement. Big Read: https://t.co/pnkjcLqj7F
