The same people that don’t believe Black Doctors are qualified also don’t think we should have a directory for those who want to see a Black doctor! Why do they even care? Leave Black People Alone! - HBCU educated Black Doctor with friends.

White segregationists try to prevent Black protesters from entering water at segregated beach, St. Augustine, Florida, 1964

And people still ask why Black women don’t trust the medical system like history didn’t literally weaponize healthcare against them.

This is the team of senior residents (and one critical
care fellow) staffing the Halsted Trauma and Acute Care Surgery team with me this week at @HopkinsMedicine.

Best part about being an attending?

Responding to emails from residents and med students with a couple words, poor grammar, and an emoji.

Very normal to announce to the world that a medicine is dangerous and then spend the next few months asking your team to find literally any proof that it’s true

🚨 The older the sperm, the more likely it is to cause autism

Sequencing sperm using nearly error-free sequencing → measure % sperm carrying disease-causing mutations:

2% at age 30 → 4.5% at 70

Most were autism genes

The hospital is a daily reminder: time is a privilege. Spend yours with people you love. On work that matters. In places you want to be.

This is an iron lung for polio victims.

Remember these?

Me neither. It's now in a museum..where it should stay.

Why?

Many studies suggest a major cause of autism is the mutated sperm of elderly fathers, but in a centuries old tradition (see everything from schizophrenia to eating disorders), men have decided to blame women for taking Tylenol while pregnant (despite no valid supporting studies).

[Dr. Catharine Young @DrCatharineY]

This is why we fund science. And experimental gene therapy.

@DGlaucomflecken :bangs pans together:
UNCONTROLLED FEVERS CAUSE MISCARRIAGE IN THE FIRST TRIMESTER

Also, spinal damage, heart damage and facial abnormalities in babies. Anything over 102.5 for more than 12 hours is dangerous.

[Ken Milne MD @TheSGEM]

@DGlaucomflecken In a large study, prenatal Tylenol exposure was not associated with ASD, ADHD or ID.

It's still reasonable to recommend the use of Tylenol during pregnancy when clinically indicated, at the lowest effective dose & for the shortest reasonable duration.
