@DavidLBrownMD@jaded_doc I’m sure the Hopkins ID department is going to lose a bunch of sleep over this. We should definitely reexamine if antibiotics work.
@DrJMarine@DrSiyabMD Agree we should never blame or shame, especially the patient. But we have to hold our leaders to a higher standard. I think we’d agree on that.
@DrJMarine@DrSiyabMD No one is blaming one person, and obviously the problem is complex, but he’s part of the problem. It’s deluded to believe otherwise. Obviously we’ve come to an impasse. But I appreciate your point of view!
@DrJMarine@DrSiyabMD I don’t know about your state, but where I practice there are measles outbreaks right now. Who is more at fault for that - rfk or hotez? I’d argue you’re boy Bobby.
@DrJMarine@DrSiyabMD No. I stopped telling young healthy people years ago who had already had Covid to get boosters. But the original shots saved many. You’re smart enough to know that video is clickbait, and I’d argue you posting it sews as much distrust in doctors as the people you’re vilifying.
@DrSiyabMD@DrJMarine You don’t need cardio thoracic surgery back up for a vaccine. Also, vaccines save lives. Afib ablation surely does not in 99% of patients who get them.
@drjohnm@venkmurthy@AndrewFoy82@Sensible__Med Looking forward to this. I find it very challenging clinic when young patients come in with very low ascvd risk scores and ask for you to somehow lower risk further. I actually think it’s pretty unfair to the physician.
@drjohnm I live in North Carolina. People are very kind here. I was raised in Massachusetts. People are also kind there. I think implication that this would not happen elsewhere is misguided.
