#Delta just downgraded me on our 25th anniversary trip to Paris. Booked, paid & confirmed 9 months ago. Day of flight, 7 hours before boarding after check-in and boarding pass. I’m Delta Diamond. Travel issues happen but this is 100% in Delta’s control. Thanks Ed Bastian!

Cardiologist and best-selling author Eric Topol has spent years studying what it takes to become a super ager — someone who lives beyond their 80s without debilitating chronic conditions.

His research suggests that almost anyone can do it. https://t.co/GzFz9oI5GC

At this moment 50 years ago, the Coast Guard asks the Arthur M. Anderson—the last ship to contact the Fitz—to leave the protection of Whitefish Bay and conduct a search through hell.

The Anderson gave a master salute to the Fitzgerald on the 45th anniversary of the sinking.

Amateur hour? Is the president, is America, being properly served?

Dangerous.

A 13-year-old girl in Canada with #H5N1 required mechanical ventilation, ECMO, CRRT, plasma exchange, and 3 antivirals. I can’t stress this enough, but these extraordinary interventions are NOT typical for respiratory pathogens.

Here are her chest X-rays 1 day apart, admission and the following day—highlighting how rapidly this progressed.

We must do more now before we see more cases like this.

⚠️BREAKING
Reported in @NEJM today.

First description of a CRITICALLY ILL PAEDIATRIC PATIENT with H5N1 BirdFlu in North America.

The D1.1 virus circulating in BC birds almost KILLED this 13 yr old in less than 96 hours.
She presented in multi-organ failure 3 days after mild conjunctivitis.
Her lungs were WHITE-OUTS.👇👇

Only modern day organ support (ECMO/CVVHDF) saved her.

The Cleveland variant is the strangest cryptic yet. I really don’t get it.
Can someone help me figure this out.

Every time Jimmy Carter flew Delta, he shook hands with each person on the plane. Because that's who he was. Someone who treated people as people.

I finally solved the mystery of why there are so many cryptic lineages in Northern Ohio.

This is a mystery I’ve been working on for the last 18 months.
