I just donated to @ripmedicaldebt and abolished $100 in medical debt for every $1 I donated. Spread the word and give today https://t.co/QjlN6PEGyK As part of the medical profession, this is the right thing to do.

--> Existing ventilation targets are bare minimums not designed for health (40 year mistake at this point...)
--> Better ventilation is associated with lower infectious disease risk, better cognitive function, fewer missed work days, fewer missed school days...

I like the concept of mask mirroring. This extends allowing persons to wear masks for any reason to being willing to respond if asked. Let mask and mask if asked.

Our Chief Quality Officer at DHMC, @CalderwoodMD, discusses the decision to make masking optional at our facilities starting on April 10, 2023. This short clip touches on the importance of mask mirroring & respecting individual mask-wearing preferences.

Probably the best thing you'll see today.

In 2017, a group of developers hilariously competed for who could create worst volume control interface in the world.

Quick answers to some of the questions I've been getting asked about #BA5:
1) Should I get boosted? If eligible, yes!
2) Should I go back to wearing a mask indoors? Having to ask the question gives you the answer. Yes.
3) When will this be over? 😐 Let's focus on # 1 and 2...

Did you remember to bring a jacket? #SHEASpring2022

To every company offering "wellness stipends" to fight burnout:

Funding gym visits, vacations, and healthy meals is a bandage, not a cure.

If you really care about well-being, you might want to stop overloading people with grueling work and subjecting them to abusive bosses.
