@MayorShengThao’s proposed cuts to the Oakland Dept of Violence Prevention threaten to harm my patients and the East Oakland community I work in @RootsEmpowers @NohaAboelataMD https://t.co/jIKapFvYAn

Excellent piece by @NohaAboelataMD on the importance of continued masking in healthcare

[Noha Aboelata, MD @NohaAboelataMD]

Thank you @mercnews for publishing my op-ed!

"Opinion: California health care providers’ retreat from COVID masking is shameful

In what universe is it ethically appropriate for physicians and hospitals to infect their own patients with COVID?" 🧵

I wrote this to process the trauma of responding to a shooting on the doorstep of my clinic @RootsEmpowers. We need @AlamedaCounty to commit way more resources to this public health crisis: https://t.co/OSN3HQy4i4

@internxy @UCSFIMChiefs @MGBUnited Members elect delegates annually who are empowered with specific responsibilities eg attending annual CIR convention and voting on national issues there. Organizing committee is open to all members who want to be involved in the work of the union. Structure can vary by hosp tho.

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

I was a regional VP in CIR-SEIU while also a @UCSFIMChiefs chief resident. Union can win things that program leadership also want but lack power to achieve. Greater power for shared goals - improved resident working conditions and learning experience. Vote YES @MGBUnited!

@johncmessinger Congrats John! Welcome!

@sonic_status Still not working for me in Potrero Hill after reboot

For the last three years, report after report has documented rampant dysfunction, corruption, inequality, racism, exploitation, profiteering, and deadly systems-wide failures in US healthcare. Despite this, policymakers and healthcare administrators 1/ https://t.co/SPSJHoEW7h

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

@odomjohnlab @LlinasLab I think I did that once as an undergrad!

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

Proud of the work ⁦@RootsEmpowers⁩ ⁦@NohaAboelataMD⁩ are doing to address glaring pulse oximeter disparities https://t.co/j0tnMwAgyn

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

@kidney_boy @manningtyree08 @DrZackaryBerger 🤯 wait so the KDIGO guidelines for aggressive BP control in CKD are based on what exactly?

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

We are hiring a Clinical Programs Specialist at @RootsEmpowers! If you know someone looking to work on clinical programs for patients in East Oakland, send them our posting: https://t.co/TV67LLzQaa

[Sutter Health @SutterHealth]

New Sutter research in the @AmJEpi reveals that a pulse oximeter’s error on reading the blood oxygen levels of Black patients could have contributed to #COVID treatment delays. Learn more about these findings. @UCSFMedicine, @RootsEmpowers https://t.co/cogMTMkQB7 #healthequity

[Grant Lin, MD/PhD @Grant_L_Lin]

Very excited to share a @JAMA_current Viewpoint written with @Riagpal and @jessiege_, reflecting on the professional roles of physicians and how housestaff activism is a critical piece of realizing our responsibility as health advocates #medtwitter #meded

@AndreaLMerrill @uche_blackstock @Delta A few years ago I worked with the @afa_cwa and a coalition of other groups as well as a few members of congress to advocate to FAA for adding naloxone to required EMK. Ultimately unsuccessful but might be worth seeing if AFA wants to help work on this again.

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

@andy_hyatt_ quick google search reveals this nature paper though, wonder what you think? https://t.co/hfnirldhdG

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

@andy_hyatt_ Definitely wouldn't say I have much expertise! Have been peripherally following long covid but haven't done a deep dive in the literature. Here's the MMWR: https://t.co/hduMqTdMPl interesting no changes in neurocog testing in that ACP study.

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

@andy_hyatt_ Eg from MMWR

[Andreas Mitchell @amitchell19]

@andy_hyatt_ I think increased mortality due to MIs and other vascular causes as well as lasting neurocognitive effects have been proven though?
