@chelanbytahoe @_celia_bedelia_ Google IS free. And a quick Google search shows combined oral contraceptives (those with estrogen) improve bone density. Continuous birth control does not cause osteoporosis. I recommend it to a variety of my patients.

When a student loan is canceled, Treasury stops collecting principal & interest on it. That’s it. Nothing else happens and it has no discernible effect on anyone other than the borrower having more money to spend, save or invest. NO ONE ELSE PAYS FOR IT. Not you. Not me. NO ONE.

Dr. Shakil's memory will live on in the many lives he touched as a physician, teacher, mentor, and friend.

@awsumpowers Need that extra time to make sure I didn't accidentally capitalize the T so others confuse it with physical therapy.

@shelly2161 @OpenUrMlND @sexygirl798 @ask_aubry Doctors absolutely can work on a contract. Resident physicians ALWAYS have a contract, and it ends on a very specific and unchangeable date. Sounds like she's taking a break before her first real job after residency. 100% deserves a break.

@NedyalkovaIva @bartleby_era Seriously, is this what passes for writing these days? I slogged through critical theory readings in college but THIS is truly harder to read

Just a casual news article about how private insurance companies steal so much money that it’s about 5 times the value of all property crime in the U.S. combined according to FBI stats.

Telling women they aren't good role models for little girls if they curse or show anger is just another form of misogyny. Little girls are allowed to get angry. They are allowed to show emotion. They are allowed to take up space. Full stop.

Your periodic reminder that Medicare For All would save $450 billion in health care costs and 68,000 lives per year.

We can't handle the concept of a freak accident anymore. The right makes it a conspiracy theory, liberals say it's a policy failure and the left says it could have been prevented with communism. Sometimes a boat loses power and rams into a bridge

Thought for the day 🤔
Adding a medical school lecture on the impact of racism on health does NOT require you to delete a lecture on Biochemistry. Teaching physicians that living in a racist world increases one's risk of stroke, heart attack is NOT "teaching discrimination."

Recently, when searching on Google Flights, I noticed that when I sorted by "less emissions," I kept getting a Boeing 737-Max 9.

I wondered: Why is that? And does this mean lower-emissions planes are less safe?

I sent a reporter to get answers. Here's what she found (1/X) 🧵

Son had an assignment to create a new Constitutional amendment. The teachers were expecting a lot of silly responses. Instead, almost universally, kids submitted gun control

Think the realization is setting in on what will happen when the school shooting generation takes power

I’m begging the public to understand that childhood immunizations are not profitable for your child’s doctor -AND- they are among the least profitable products made by pharma — Pediatricians really just want to help keep your kids healthy 🩷
