Beautiful piece ❤️
Medicine can have extraordinary meaning.. It cannot substitute for being present in your own life. The world may need us as physicians. But the people who love us need us as ourselves.. That is the role no one else can fill #MedSky

Balance Versus Bias: Correcting Misinformation About the 2025 ATS Community-Acquired Pneumonia Guidelines Julio A Ramirez, MD, Barbara E Jones, MD MS, Eyal Oren, PhD, MS, Nilam J Soni, MD MS, Marcos I Restrepo, MD, MSc, PhD, Daniel M Musher, MD, Brian L Erstad,
