Awesome work for overdose response!

[Ben @Kensinghenge]

I am in perpetual awe of how the people in my neighborhood look out for one another, and I'm proud to have contributed to this project helping folks signal and respond to overdoses.

@yamaniyansa @Beyoutoofullest @Semhar MRI has no radiation and will likely show more regarding an old injury!

Is everyone reading this??!

I gotta break down this science real quick.

This study compared COVID-19 mortality rates by racial/ethnic group AND age. It found:

Among folks aged 35-44, Black people had a COVID mortality rate 9 *times* as high as whites.

@DGlaucomflecken I found it very cool to only cry from one eye.

@rebekah_diamond I'm so curious about these. I'd love to collect a larger sample.

My gas after wearing one for 3 hours: 7.32/53. But I had COVID and didn't know it.

@Kensinghenge The comments section on this one is painful.

@smithECGBlog Why do you think aVR is so positive?

[SJW MD @emstronaut]

@DrToxigon I think it's already out there. Had patients who swore up and down they only use pills, but OD'd and UDS+ fentanyl (fwiw)

@theblondeMD I know you're just a pgy2 so you may not have learned yet, the spleen isn't supposed to be behind the gallbladder or the appendix 😂

[SJW MD @emstronaut]

@billkinkle I couldn't agree more. Respect is the first prescription for every patient.

[SJW MD @emstronaut]

@jeanthos @asemhabibi @DoktorCollin Yeah, my phone autocorrected but there were already replies so I left it.

[SJW MD @emstronaut]

@CanadianKayMD @asemhabibi @DoktorCollin Lung ultrasound is probably the quickest to learn. I'm glad you had attendings who took the time! I always try to teach my off-service rotators some POCUS.

[SJW MD @emstronaut]

@asemhabibi @DoktorCollin And I'd like to DM you but I can't: from a poorly professional point of view, starting your career by publicly insulting accomplished physician scientists on the front lines, as well as a well studied skill that has radically changed your colleagues' practice is... Unwise.

[SJW MD @emstronaut]

@asemhabibi @DoktorCollin Well, POCUS is now a core competency of EM training, so most younger ED docs would have competency. Since I'm getting exposed to the patient anyway, I'm not sure how much additional risk POCUS adds to just interviewing the patient. It's probably safer than auscultation, though.
