Numbers are frightening. Which medical specialties face the greatest nursing shortages? We need investment in training, retention & safe staffing #Nurses & community health workers are both essential, in all resource settings @ors_gaw @brownam130 @JanetMattsson @lyvonnetume

March 4th.
The only date that is also a command.
It's been 19 years since my husband died of cancer & my life irreversibly changed. It took me years to feel like I wasn't drowning every minute of every day.
Grief & financial toxicity gave me a mission.

I never once denied Covid vaccines can cause myocarditis.
They can. Very rarely.
You know what is more likely to cause myocarditis than a vaccine?
Covid.

Interesting and inconvenient facts for those supporting ACIP HepB policy change AND wanting to make America healthy:
1) Australia gives universal hepatitis b vaccine
2) They outlive Americans…
by a lot…
(They’re also on the way to eliminating cervical cancer via HPV vax). 🦘

A key point often overlooked as the administration prioritizes chronic disease: vaccines ARE chronic disease prevention.
- HPV & Hep B vaccines prevent cancer
- Flu vaccine reduces COPD & heart disease flares
- Measles & COVID vaccines avert neurologic damage
🌍 Investigators of The Pediatric Critical Illness Outcomes Study (PECIOS) invite hospitals worldwide to join this global effort to measure pediatric critical illness, outcomes & care delivery.

Disinformation and the destruction of public health & America’s trust in doctors will kill more people than cigarettes. Neither I nor the other five living Surgeons General wanted to call for this unprecedented warning- but all felt compelled by duty to do so. wapo.st/3VTALll
