@tmodarressi These are not primary prevention patients. Prior CABG? Multivessel PCI? Diabetes with retinopathy? Multiple vascular bed involvement? These patients are sicker than in FOURIER.

[David Schopfer, MD @schopfermd]

@khurramn1 Agreed. These patients are Not primary prevention and had extensive and severe disease. Arguably sicker and higher risk than the original FOURIER cohort.

@drpablocorral These are not primary prevention patients. Inclusion criteria so strict most of these had more severe atherosclerotic disease than in FOURIER.

@MaxBretosSports Bird in the hand. I think you always take the goal over red card and hope you get a goal later.

Serious question: Why on earth should Manchin be in charge of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee? He’s taken more money from fossil fuel sources than any other member of Congress, including every Republican. Hello?

Big Pharma says they need to charge astronomical prices to pay for research and development. Yet, the amount they spend on manipulating the market to enrich shareholders completely eclipses what's spent on R&D. Today, I confronted a CEO about the industry's lies, with visuals ⤵️

@OpenMCPS The lack of science in their decision-making is appalling. Schools all over are doing it well and proving it is possible.

@tesla_raj @elonmusk @p_ferragu Once FSD goes to monthly subscription, it will essentially be transferable. Since you'll be paying as you go for whatever car you have. Right?

[David Schopfer, MD @schopfermd]

@BethesdaBeat MCPS is not opening this school year, much less next month. The metrics they have set are WAY BEYOND what we can reach any time soon. Fingers crossed for September, but that is no guarantee either.

Pipe bombs found and destroyed at headquarters of RNC and DNC. Is that a 1st amendment right? Is this officially considered a coup attempt yet?

We do a better job protecting confederate statues than we do the Capitol Building.

In America, you can be teargassed and shot with rubber bullets for peacefully protesting in front of a church.

But you can literally bust down the doors to the United States Capitol and stroll around while police officers watch.

[Patrick S. Tomlinson @stealthygeek]

Stop sharing the McConnell quote from 2016 about "The American People" having a voice in picking a new SCOTUS Justice. Just stop it. He doesn't care. He didn't care then, he sure as fuck doesn't care now. He's a traitor. He feels no shame, no pity, nothing.

End the GOP.

So incredibly proud of you, sis!

A medical group known as conservative and cautious has a clear message: Get kids back into classrooms this fall, even if 6 feet of distance can't be maintained. Dr. Sean O'Leary explains why.  https://t.co/ZCkH1iLTnk
