Thank you for reading ❤️

Thanks Holly ❤️

Hospice care and the annihilation of entire civilizations I returned from vacation to my work as a doctor on Monday.

I felt compelled to write about a beloved patient going on hospice, set again the backdrop of a maniacal genocidal threat, superimposed upon the murder of hundreds of school children and thousands of innocent civilians - all in our name.

Aw thank you, made my day and so glad to help inform!❤️

Is TrumpRx anything to be excited about? Or just another scammy-feeling site I won't be recommending to patients?

Excellent reporting, and important considerations for vulnerable patients about to open their wallets. Thanks for helping to spread the word with your post!
My PCP version:

Is TrumpRx anything to be excited about? Or just another scammy-feeling site I won't be recommending to patients?

This was excellent reporting, and the scamminess is self evident. A little deeper analysis from my primary care perspective if interested : mccormickmd.substack.com/p/is-trumprx...

Agreed. Each day another scam or ten.

Thanks for spreading the word on this Ian, I am doing the same this morning!

Is TrumpRx worth the golden eagle that delivers it to us, you know, like a golden carrion that golden eagles might soar with?? Here is your full analysis. Caveat emptor, to say the least!

Thank you for representing us here in Philly with class, integrity, courage, and a good moral compass.

The same movement that mocked masking as cowardice now defends balaclavas on federal agents as “officer safety,” turning face coverings from a tool of solidarity and public health beneficence into a shield for state violence, terror, and impunity.

Millions of healthcare workers are right there with these devastated coworkers, heroes of the ICU.

One Family Doc’s Rx for a Sick Republic Of bandaids and scalpels, and a critical condition.

Thank you for accepting my call to your office yesterday. I know you are on the right side of all of this. Here’s my small voice:

Ryan McCormick, M.D. (@mccormickmd) Here’s some breaking news I just learned that is sure to cause even more harm to pediatric vaccination. RFK Jr’s anti-vaccination Children's Health Defense has filed a RICO racketeering lawsuit again...

So now RFK Jr’s Childrens Health Defense is coming at vaccines with a RICO racketeering lawsuit. They are attacking the American Academy of Pediatrics like one comes after the mafia. You have to read it to believe it, and most importantly, to know some talking points to counter the bullshit:

Hilarious and TRUE!!

This is why I’m never leaving a proud city like Philadelphia, especially as communities are threatened, abused, and killed by ICE agents under orders from this regime. I gladly pay my Philly taxes for a generally great District Attorney, Sheriff, and police force.

Not sure how I feel about the culture and economy of getting cats “high” on grass and joints, or the sketchy supplement industry expanding into CBD as a pet panacea, too.

Thoughts from pet owners and non-pet owners? As seen in Philly:

Have you seen this latest brick through the window? Prasad throwing it through a sure to be leaked email:

Agreed. Listen all y’all, it’s a sabotage:

Are you frightened by the #vinayprasad memo in which he claims Covid vaccines caused at least 10 child deaths? We should all want to see the proof... but until then, and don't hold your breath, here's a deep dive on the state of Prasad's predictable, ideological mess mongering. Click to read post:

What are some examples of dumping?

The End of the Wellness Delusion (And What Comes After) Living well. With loss and less.

Just as the West built itself on the myth of endless progress, much of modern medicine, wellness culture, and the longevity industry have constructed their own foundational lie: that with enough effort, tech, and personal responsibility, we can indefinitely postpone decline, disability, and death.

I’m thankful for this roasted dinosaur sacrificed on Thanksgiving. That some birds and mammals were among the 25% of life on Earth to survive the meteoric extinction 66M years ago. I’m sorry for the tragedy of the other 75%. It’s a miracle that any of us survive - conscious, sentient, aware.
Cheers!

Thanks Greg! I try not to make it too wonky, but also referenced well so it’s not just me making stuff up… unlike some leaders we suffer now!

THIS MOTHERFUCKER HELD A GREAT GATSBY PARTY WHILE 43 MILLION PEOPLE GO HUNGRY AND HEALTHCARE COSTS KEEP RISING.

In an interview on Fox News, anchor Jesse Watters mocks Dr. Anthony Fauci, Kid Rock mocks the public health tool of masking, then both devolve into fits of laughter at Kid’s gleeful use of the disability slur “retard.”

Here’s one way to think about it:

Ryan McCormick, M.D. (@mccormickmd) I’m glad they are building the monstrously garish White House Billionaires’ Ballroom. Someday, when we the people regain and improve our American democracy, The People’s House can be returned to the p...

We should be drawing up plans now for how to retrofit the grotesque White House Billionaires’ Ballroom.

In the future it needs to be repurposed as a National Civic Center. Galas honoring teachers, first responders, military, scientists, etc. Town halls. The people’s house returned to the people.

The fascist doctor will see you now Monday morning after a No Kings weekend

Seriously. Maybe they could convert this into a free health clinic someday:
