Arthur, my 79 year old triple bypass friend from cardiac rehab, wants to know why it’s so hard for people to wear a mask because he just did 20 minutes on the recumbent bike with a mask no problem.

I’m a surgical fellow, which means I qualified for a stimulus check but have stable employment. I’m committing to #sharemycheck with those who need it more. Here are some Philly-specific ideas if you're looking to do the same https://t.co/Z0hPNalj9D

Dear Emergency Medicine colleagues,

When this mess is over, I will come back to the hospital for any catheter you may need help with.

Also, courtesy DREs for all male colleagues 50 and older.

You are heroes!!!

@drchethansathya I have this drill every day and sometimes several times depending on how many times I have to go into the hospital for emergencies.

National quarantine? Sounds scary. Let me explain

All non-essential activities should cease

Keep grocery stores, pharmacies open

Implement for 2 weeks while we ramp up testing

After 2 weeks, assess # of cases, where they are in US and decide what next based on evidence

[Elizabeth Plimack MD @ERPlimackMD]

Pls move NAC to top priority. Upfront cystectomy is much higher risk/resource drain than 3 visits to infusion cntr for ddmvac or 8 for GC. Risk of hospitalization w either is low. Chemo buys 6-12 weeks + 12 more as safe interval to surgery. Goal is cure.

Graphs are useful but to really get what that rising curve is, have a look at the obituaries page of this Bergamo daily newspaper, comparing one from February with one from now

Anyone else seeing this? 57 yo with low risk PCa referred for #RALP told him to do AS but we got an MRI to confirm low risk disease. Shows a 2.5 cm anterior mass PIRADs 5. offered repeat biopsy. Pt wants RALP. Aetna denies surgery. See letter. Thanks, but no thanks.
