Addiction to short-form videos reduces brain activity in the frontal lobe weakening the ability to focus.

Today one of my breast cancer patients was placed under general anesthesia before I had seen her, marked her, or signed her chart.

That should never happen.

This is not the first time I have walked into a hospital and found that the rules were treated like suggestions. Surgery is not an assembly line. These are human beings. They deserve to be seen, evaluated, marked, and spoken to before anesthesia is administered.

When I asked for an explanation, I was met with defensiveness instead of accountability.

And here is the deeper issue. I am often told by insurance companies where I am allowed to operate. Even when I know that another facility is safer. Even when patterns like this have already occurred.

Physicians should be able to choose the safest environment for their patients. Insurance contracts should not override safety standards.

I am tired. But I am not going to be quiet.

We have to build a system where surgeons can vote with their feet and take patients where protocols are followed and safety comes first.

Our patients deserve better.

MUZZLED CANCER REPORT—For the past three years, the industry, aided by its allies in Congress & Trump WH, has sought to discredit and bury a major analysis that offers new evidence of the link between drinking alcohol and getting sick and dying from various causes, including cancer. They succeeded. 3 co-authors on the Alcohol Intake and Health Study, which was commissioned in early 2022 by Biden HHS, told Vox that they were informed last month that the Trump administration did not intend to publish the final draft of the study or its findings.

@thereal_truther @stkirsch It’s even worse than trust me bro. Dr Peter M gets three Pinocchio’s for his lies during Covid

[RADdave💙💛 @justaFLDoc1]

@lavern_spicer This is a bad take

The booster we really need right now is to block infections and transmission

@mercola You should have been banned ages ago

I know our country has been through worse, but I don’t see how we pull back from this horrific state we’re in. Division has become marketed and monetized in a way that doesn’t lead to an epiphany or unifying moment. I truly worry for my kids/ their future. 🤦🏽‍♂️

@dianaberrent Not me personally, but I read a neck CT with acute parotiditis in a COVID+ patient back in 2020. I told my resident he should write it up but a case had already been reported in the literature

[RADdave💙💛 @justaFLDoc1]

@dianaberrent Congrats to you both!

The rise of BA.5 globally

[Truth In Numbers @Truth_in_Number]

ONE MORE TIME: The fact that there were MORE COVID deaths in 2021 than 2020 is NOT evidence that vaccines don't work.

A calendar year is an arbitrary start and end for a year, except for tax purposes. It's meaningless.

Here are the basic facts...

@the_terribly @aperfectstrange @SaraHirschhorn1 @yaneerbaryam She said in Tiktok comments it is confirmed

[RADdave💙💛 @justaFLDoc1]

@mercola Good example. Vaccines save lives
