I've been thinking about compassion and pediatricians.

There's an idea that pediatricians are "softer" than internal medicine docs because we take care of kids. And kids are cute! Funny! Sticky! 1/

Had a wonderful time connecting with friends and colleagues, both new and from all stages of training!

And already the ramifications of this for parents and babies are not good. Families here are incredibly resilient, but their stories of the ways this closure has had an impact — and the choices they’ve had to make— have been heartbreaking

My ideal summer body is one that I have complete control over

[Jennifer Gunter @DrJenGunter]

I was just asked to be on The National to discuss Roe and abortion...and then I found out it would be a panel with a "pro-life/anti-abortion" voice. I am livid and sent this reply. I couldn't care less if this means I will not be asked back to the CBC. It needed to be said.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Forced birth in a country with:

—No universal healthcare
—No universal childcare
—No paid family & medical leave
—One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations

This isn't about "life." It's about control.

Maybe someday, women in America will have as many rights as guns do.

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

[Megan K. Stack @Megankstack]

At bedtime the 8 yo told me his teacher said: “Think of your mind like a pond full of fish and each fish is a feeling. Try to be the pond, not the fish.” And all I can say is primary school has significantly improved.

Sha’Carri Richardson: Tests positive for pot (which is not performance enhancing)
•Banned from Olympics

Kamila Valieva: Tests positive for Trimetazidine (which increases blood flow to heart)
•Approved for Olympics

I can’t qwhite put my finger on the difference here🤔

For those still saying omicron is mild, every child admitted to my team this week (except for 1) has had COVID. And each with a totally different presentation, all too young to be vaxxed

The only funny thing about this situation..keep the good tweets coming
