As I mentioned on @NYUDocs today, I'm working on a new book to follow in the footsteps of Why Do Men Have Nipples? This time, @LeynerMark and I are answering all your questions about getting older. Anything special you want to know???

Extra thankful for this gift from @DianesFoodBlog after finding out I’m getting called in to cover a sick call on the overnight shift. Furious and surly but making the best of it.

Just saw a tweet saying “Both the vaccinated and the unvaccinated can catch Covid.” A doctor responded: “Both Serena Williams and I can play tennis."

Given the passing of General Powell who was fully vaccinated A lot of misinformation spreading about breakthrough infections So let's talk about breakthroughs What are they about? When are they a big deal? Let's put on our public health and clinician hats on this Thread

In the face of growing opposition from doctors and hospitals, UnitedHealthcare has decided to delay a policy aimed at cutting back on reimbursements for emergency room visits. Hospital groups had called the shift misguided, especially during the pandemic.  nyti.ms/3pMNDsH

I want to dedicate today’s radio show to Dr. Brian Fletcher a kind, gentle, hilarious soul. He had a gift for keeping us smiling from afar. He will always be missed and never forgotten. @ SiriusXM Doctor Radio @ NYU instagram.com/p/CNaCInnnDYF/…

One of the greatest joys of being a physician is watching colleagues in action. For over a year, our nation’s frontline doctors have showed up – day-after-day, with quiet & selfless bravery – to help people heal during the pandemic. Today, we celebrate you. #NationalDoctorsDay

The ED is a safety net for those w/ access issues. Let's be a vaccine safety net - Stock JNJ: particularly in city hospitals - Offer to patients who have access barriers: homelessness, lack of transport, no internet access etc We can help fix this @ACEPNow @DoctorsForBiden

Getting a vaccine shields you from severe Covid disease—and could save your life. But it's not yet clear how well it prevents you from spreading the virus. Until more of us are protected and the science is clear, masks and distancing keep everyone safer.

Vaccine complete. 2 weeks until full immunity. Will still be masked and physically distanced but with a little more piece of mind in the ER. Go science! @ New York, New York instagram.com/p/CJtVAkRpoW4/…

With his remarks from the White House tonight, the President disrespected every single American who figured out a way to safely vote amid a pandemic that has taken 235,000 lives. Not to mention those who are dutifully counting that vote. Absolutely shameful. Yet so predictable.

President Trump's baseless claims about physicians overcounting COVID-19 deaths is harmful and offensive. See our official response. @ACEPNow emergencyphysicians.org/pres…

It's called "remote learning" because of the remote chance my kids are going to learn anything.

Our job in public health is to lead with science, compassion, and truth. That last one is hard during polarized times when even stating the truth can make you seem biased or political. But that's when it's all the more urgent to stand up for truth clearly and with conviction. 1/x

It’s the dynamic duo—the masked medical crusaders of the #ER, @askdrbilly & @heshiegreshie LIVE 8-10amET Thurs. They’re both in studio, faces covered and physically distanced. Are you wearing your #facemask around your #DropletGang (people you spend time w/ but don’t live with)?
