[Andy Parker @AndyParkerVA]

My name is Andy Parker. When my daughter was killed on live TV, I had a choice to retreat into my grief or honor Alison’s life through action.

Now, I am running for Congress as a proud Democrat to fight for Virginia. Help me by retweeting, following, and amplifying my message.

[Patients First @HalstedMD]

"Suddenly a Hospitalist. Help!"

A 6-year-old Houston boy and his mom are reflecting on his scary battle with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children due to COVID that left him hospitalized in the ICU for more than two weeks. #TheySurvivedCovid https://t.co/nygCtjofjw

@dremilyportermd Well the game is your insurance won’t cover a stye. But for those of us being killed to make any money, and also being underappreciated for noting a “stye” or chalazion…it’s painful. Hurtful actually. It makes it look like we money grub to a layperson. You can do better.

[ss @sskmdss]

@dremilyportermd And if that stye becomes an abscess or periorbital cellulitis needing an admission and IV abx, I’m sure the 50$ will be a steal. Pedi is overworked and underpaid because folks assume we do very little for a lot, and don’t realize how fast bad happens to kids in the wrong hands.

@TexasChildrens to every Physician, nurse, staff, administrator…we are grateful for you! For your hard work and dedication to our children! Thank you ❤️

[Yo-Yo Ma @YoYo_Ma]

Some musical gratitude for all the healthcare workers who do the impossible every day.

@ab_peds It’s about time you hear us! We want NO MOC, lower dues and frankly someone to explain how NPs are allowed to practice pediatrics without ANY board certification but physicians are still being subjected to this money grab?! Show us how MOC improves quality of care. Data please.

“Until NP academic preparation variability is resolved, we conclude that NPs should NOT perform independent, unsupervised care in the ED REGARDLESS of state law or hospital regulations in order to protect patient safety.”

Nurse Practitioner education nonstandardized and highly variable. “Until this variability is resolved…NPs should not perform independent, unsupervised care in the ED, regardless of state law…to protect patient safety.”

[Midlevel.WTF @MidlevelWTF]

An analysis of almost 10 years of data provides some of the clearest evidence yet that midlevels need to be closely supervised by physicians and kept on a short leash.

If 51 votes in the Senate is good enough to confirm Supreme Court nominees, pass corporate tax cuts, raise the debt ceiling, confirm Cabinet nominees, and pass trillions in budget legislation, then it should be good enough to protect our freedom to vote. #VotingRightsForThePeople

[Scott Dworkin @funder]

WOW! #VotingRightsForThePeople is still trending #1 in America—and is now trending worldwide! Let’s keep it going!

[Lina Hidalgo @LinaHidalgoTX]

New TX voter suppression laws are leading to 1 in 3 vote by mail applications being flagged for rejection in Harris County. Voters: please apply early, and include a phone number or email in your application so election workers can assist.

[Dan Price @DanPriceSeattle]

So runaway capitalism gave us the empty store shelves they warned would happen under socialism, but instead of getting free health care or parental leave all we got was record corporate profits and billionaires doubling their net worth.

[Adam B. Hill, M.D. @Adamhill1212]

Had a colleague tell me, “To be clear, I’m not depressed. I’m reacting appropriately to the world around me”. Oof, felt that.

[Omar Reborn @SenClayDavisx4]

How are Biden’s vaccine mandates an overreach but TX abortion laws aren’t?
