Hard to put in words how much Dr. Farmer and the PIH family shaped and inspired my career.

He will be very missed. His work carries on.

[Partners In Health @PIH]

Partners In Health announced that its founder, Dr. Paul Farmer, unexpectedly passed away today in his sleep while in Rwanda.

Dr. Farmer was 62 years old. He is survived by his wife, Didi Bertrand Farmer, and their three children.

Here's my list of 12 papers in 2021 at the intersection of health care, medicine, economics and policy that surprised me, made me think, or were just damn clever.

I'm just going to focus on non-COVID-19 papers - we have enough of that other stuff in our feeds.

Off we go!

Not in total agreement with the exact messaging of the @olgakhazan tweet, but super interesting perspective on our ongoing California crisis:

[Olga Khazan ME, BUT BETTER @olgakhazan]

If you're mad that California now doesn't have enough hospital beds, if the opposite were true, 99% of the time you would be mad that healthcare costs in California are so high https://t.co/MwzHkXifRK

For more than 20 years, I’ve looked after patients with rare and sometimes life-threatening drug reactions. More patients than I can count.

I study drug safety for a living, and I’m rounding on a ward full of COVID patients right now.

I am getting vaccinated in two days.

7/7 So what I’ve learned in #quarantime: For public health to be effective we need to support individuals. Personal & public health don't exist independently. We can’t expect individuals to take personal measures to safeguard the public, if we can’t support them in their efforts.

[Emilia J. Ling @emjling]

Currently on day 10/14 of a county-mandated quarantine, after my accounting homework buddy tested COVID+.

What have I learned?

6/n. Thankfully, I live at Stanford, where school and community support is abundant. I’m also not worrying about safe shelter, job security, or live-in family.

Big news from Pfizer, with apparent high efficacy (>90%) based on 94 confirmed COVID-19 cases at their interim analysis.

A thread on how I interpret this news. Briefly:
"Celebrate, but let the process play out over time as intended."

The date is November 3rd, 2020 and walking into my shift I learned that we converted our hospital’s ambulance bay into a decon and triage area in preparation for unrest on Election Day in the United States of America.

Hospitals across the country have done similarly.

Surreal.

[Emilia J. Ling @emjling]

@BrightZhou So proud of you!!! 🙌🏼
