79 year old gentleman presents with a few days' history of shortness of breath on exertion. T1RF on ABG. Team felt x-ray showed some haziness at the left base - treated with IV antibiotics and fluids. Debate about whether to get a CTPA in view of significant O2 requirement. (2/5)

Similar to a prior 🧵regarding traumatic deaths in 'The Iliad': Here I will examine the deaths in the movie 'Braveheart' to estimate how many of these might have been prevented if modern level 1 trauma centers and surgical care were available in Scotland at the time. (1/)

Check out this CDC study: when a pathogen was found, #1 cause? Rhinovirus. Flu was #2. Strep pneumo is #3, then 4 more viruses before you hit another bacteria. (This study is well pre-COVID, but rest assured it would be well represented now). #SHEASpring2024 3/
