When I tell ppl I'm interested in abortion and pediatrics, they're perplexed.

"Why not OB-Gyn? Why not FM?"
"So you'll want to specialize?"
"We don't deal with abortion in peds"

We may not *deal* with abortion, but pediatric patients sure do. Buckle up, a thread.

Minnesota Doctor: I learned that Renee Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. And yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone behind me here

In a world full of chaos and confusion, speak with your trusted pediatrician to get more clarity!

And as always… follow @AmerAcadPeds for the highest quality and most up-to-date recommendations.

The science has not changed. The disease has not changed.

The chaos and confusion RFK Jr. is creating for parents and doctors is dangerous and puts the health and well-being of Pennsylvanians at stake.

No matter what comes out of DC, my Administration will continue to lead with clear, science-based guidance that doctors and parents can count on to make informed health care decisions.

This is great news.

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

Last yr, he threatened his mom with a home made bomb & other weapons. The entire neighborhood was evacuated to diffuse the bomb. He was charged with 2 counts felony menacing & 3 counts kidnapping.

Colorado has a red flag law. That red flag law should’ve been enforced. It wasn’t.

Billions in stock value wiped out from a company for a tweet from a fake parody account because they had $8 lying around is WILD.

[Erin Murphy @epmurphymn]

Minnesotans have made a clear choice. They elected a pro-choice DFL majority to the MN Senate.

And we are ready.

To fight for our freedoms. To lead with our values. To do the important work for the people of our state.

Minnesota, our future is bright. Thank you.

It's official. I will be the next U.S. Senator from Pennsylvania.

We bet on the people of Pennsylvania - and you didn’t let us down 

And I won’t let you down. Thank you.

Me: "So do you know what you want to be when you grow up?"

I told my 12 year old cousin I’ve never tried açaí bowls and she said I am an embarrassment to the family and have no culture whatsoever.

Hospitals are full of #RSV right now, peaking a little early and joined by many other viruses, placing strain on Children’s hospitals nationwide. A 🧵on RSV…

[Sara Lederman, MD, MPH @SaraLederman]

It’s a hard night and the hospital is full and your body hasn’t quite adjusted and you’re hungry and it’s hour 3 of 13.

Then a kid — a totally random kid — runs up to you and hugs you and says “I love you doctor”

Sure, it doesn’t fix everything. But damn, peds is the best.

[American Academy of Pediatrics @AmerAcadPeds]

Today @CDCgov’s independent advisory committee voted to include the COVID vaccine in the Vaccines for Children program, which provides free vaccines to 1/2 of US children, including those in Medicaid & those who are uninsured. This program helps reduce disparities in access. 1/5

If someone running for office wanted to make abortion illegal before the Dobbs decision, they still do no matter what they’re saying now.
