"There's only so many times you can walk into a room and tell someone they're not coming home tomorrow. It breaks your heart when you hear someone screaming mommy or daddy. It just becomes too hard day in and day out." - Dr. Jason Smith on the toll of gun violence in Louisville

It's time for the USMLE to authorize medical schools to administer the Step 1 and 2 exams themselves with local deans-faculty-administrators ensuring question security. Schools have lots of space for students to take the exam safely. Enough with the Prometric cancellations.

The director of @LouMetroHealth, @DrSarahMoyer, recalls her residency in Philadelphia, where they saw more gunshot victims every day than people were being shot in Iraq war. From a public health perspective, gun violence is killing/injuring too many, she says.

Whitney Austin, who was shot 12 times in the Cincinnati 5/3 shooting, says her foundation, @WhitStrongOrg, does not talk about whether guns are good or bad, but simply focuses on ways to reduce gun violence. Says extreme risk protective orders are a top priority.

Also speaking is @MorganMcGarvey, who introduced red flag law in Ky legislature last year and says he is working on one this year. McGarvey says medical professionals don’t have to talk about whether they like or dislike guns, but they can talk about the data of gun violence.
