@Cortes_Penfield Coming from the TB world, there is ample evidence that interrupted TB treatment after sx resolution leads to resistance/MDR-TB….re: cephalexin & cellulitis, more likely a case of the “prescribed course” duration probably being longer than necessary.

@dranuragb @TheLancet Landmark study—truly groundbreaking. Let’s push the world to take notice and respond accordingly with food rations for all.

Tragic loss of a valued colleague, scholar, and champion. HVTN and HIV/COVID prevention communities have lost a light. https://t.co/peqWfAGxV2

@sanghyuk_shin That is outrageous.

Could not be more excited about this inspiring announcement of ⁦@DrJeanneM⁩ as the new NIAID director. A dedicated scientist and great champion of prevention & equity, Dr. Marazzo will be an outstanding ⁦leader in this globally important role. https://t.co/vCDVxgO7vC

@JasonAndrewsMD I’m all for non-stigmatizing language (assume that was the motivation?) but don’t love the threat to expediency or accuracy w/ this alternative. Why use 1 word when you can use 3?😜Also, plenty of disease is asxic (looking at you, TB) but still transmissible & pathology-causing…

@AmmahStarr Thank you for everything you are doing to stand up for justice and create a better situation for your successors. I read every word of your lawsuit when it first went public and felt it all deeply resonate. Sending you strength and gratitude.

@ElleLettMDPhD @AcademyHealth @MyaLRoberson @DrSimpsonHSR congrats!

[Adrienne Shapiro, MD, PhD @DrAShapiro]

@BobLeeMD Yay! Congrats Alison! (She and I were PhD cohort-mates.) @BobLeeMD between your tweets and the TB guideline meeting I attended virtually, I’m having serious ATS fomo (which autocorrected to “fomites,” reassuring that IDSA is my correct professional society…)

@GermHunterMD You, sir, have won the internet for today.

First week of #ZERO #mpox cases reported in the US. We are at risk unless we finish the job vaccinating folks who could benefit from the shot through intentional work supporting people affected by systemic racism, homophobia, and transphobia. Find vax:https://t.co/UQtU7b1iVb

The ruling will result in more than 2,000 entirely preventable HIV infections in the coming year, according to a recent study led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health.

I am quite surprised that this ruling affecting coverage for USPSTF recommendations on preventative care is not front page news. This is huge and the implications can be horrible for health. ⁦@SherylNYT⁩ ⁦@nytimes⁩ https://t.co/DBjEo8yYaq
