July 20th, 1969 is a date that stands high in my life – it was the day that we, together as one people, achieved the greatest scientific and technological feat in human history. The specific role that Neil, Mike and I performed in the event was but one part of an immeasurably larger effort – not just for our nation, but for all mankind. As I look back on what we accomplished 55 years ago, I am still inspired by what we all saw and did – the best of America and the best of humanity. Thank you for the privilege and the honor of serving you, and for being part of this exciting and wonderous journey with me. #Apollo11

TikTok removed this ad from their platform for violating community guidelines. Shocker.

Should would be a shame if everyone shared this clip and bought from @xx_xyathletics 🙂

@Drlipid — historically I’ve been following LDL-P in my patients but over the last year I’ve been switching to apoB. Usually they run in parallel. I recently had a patient with LDL-P 1047 and apoB 57 on therapy. I’m puzzled how the apoB can be that good

@MGKatz036 @InfoNbpas @CMichaelGibson @doctorwes @AaronGoodman33 @chadinabhan Do the hospitals and payers recognize this yet?

I have been telling my patients for years that exercise not only prevents heart disease it is a great early detection plan. This is the first time I’ve seen anyone else mention this advantage!

Why I tell patients to exercise: Not just because of all the obvious health benefits, but because it's also an early detection system.

Regular exercise -> attune to subtle changes in exercise tolerance that may indicate a problem.

#MedTwitter Hey incoming internal medicine interns: welcome to the best of the specialties. As you start your intern year, here are a few things to remember:

1) The most dangerous thing in medicine is the thing you don't know you don't know.

A doctor must be selfish. 1/20

@CMichaelGibson Baba O’Riley intro

@sjgips Didn’t you hear, doctor, you don’t need to take aspirin to prevent heart attack. It was on the news again last week.

[Andy Beamer @docbeams]

@sjgips @juliagips15 @OslerResidency Thank goodness you didn’t mention that some people believe that putting a foreign body in the left atrium is a good idea for stopping clots

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

It's hard to keep an open mind if you don't have an open heart.

You don't have to agree with what people think to learn from how they think. You don't have to share their identity to be curious about what shaped it.

Treating people with civility is a prerequisite for discovery.

@VPrasadMDMPH Now you’ve jumped the shark. I’m going to watch a different show

[Andy Beamer @docbeams]

There are the names of the people who authored the paper that says health care providers’ health doesn’t matter.

[Kelsey @KelseyObGyn]

The AHA recommends you rip out your own beating heart and immediately give it to any patient who codes

[Andy Beamer @docbeams]

Wish I had see this/thought of that before Christmas

[Andy Beamer @docbeams]

@sjgips Should be “lying down” methinks.

[Andy Beamer @docbeams]

@CMichaelGibson It depends. Disagreeing over policy decisions? Obviously no. Spreading malicious lies and falsified data (e.g., MMR vaccine causes autism)? Sure.

[Andy Beamer @docbeams]

@drjohnm @EricTopol @ashishkjha We have seen 2 or 3 cases of heart block and extreme bradycardia temporally related to vaccination. Lasted for several days then spontaneously resolved.
