It is despicable that the Covid vaccine manufacturers are going to charge more than $110/dose for the new XBB.1.5 boosters when available in mid-September. The US government previously paid ~$25/dose, supplied free of charge, and subsidized these companies with untold $ billions.

CPR and AEDs save lives folks. Learn to do one today. @elonmusk should be ashamed of himself with the vaccine conspiracies 🙏🏾 for the #bronnyjames and his family. #heartattack #james #bronnyjames #LeBronJames #nba #usc

✳️Colorectal cancer is now the leading cause of cancer related death among males aged 20-39 and 40-49 ‼️It was third among 20-39 age group last year. ✳️ Concerning trend is also seen in young women; CRC related death and will likely surpass breast cancer in near future @OncoAlert

“Black race” is not an adverse factor…even when Black patients do worse in clinical trials. Words matter. They really, really do. #SABCS22

For me, Twitter is for science and I mostly avoid politics. But the moment my country turned into a christian "caliphate", where a minority of extreme angry white males are able to take over women's fundamental rights, is a moment I can not stay silent. I fear for the future!

Important lesson from many recent studies in advanced breast cancer: we need to keep focus on OS benefit. CDK4/6 inhibitors, sacituzumab, pembrolizumab, trastuz deruxtecan all show OS benefits. Barring major gains in QoL or tolerability, OS should be the standard @FDAOncology
