This #MentalHealthMonth, AAFP board member Dr. Jay W. Lee (@familydocwonk) spoke with @CNN Newsource about the importance of prioritizing mental health and how family physicians can help. The interview has aired across the country, including on @wjztv in Baltimore. ⬇️
I’m in shock and disbelief. Praying for the victims and everyone impacted. I have no words. Absolutely devastating on what was supposed to be a day of celebration for our city.
Police have now confirmed that 'several' people were struck by gunfire in a shooting at the Chiefs Victory Rally.
