Good for @americanheart.bsky.social

OpenNotes research has shown that about 98% of patients say reading their notes is a good idea.

Which leaves the obvious question: what’s going on with the other approximately 2%?

After careful (and very scientific) observation, patients seem to be stuck in an eternal loop of “Forgot Password?”

If FDA does this, which is likely succumbing to pressure from RFK Jr, it crosses a new red line and, as far as I know, unprecedented. Lifting a ban on drugs that are injected into the bloodstream without data for safety or efficacy, so they can be compounded and further promoted to Americans.

Federal judge blocks RFK Jr.'s changes to childhood vaccine schedule The ruling stems from a lawsuit brought by major medical organizations, including the American Academy of Pediatrics.

20 years ago it was the eve of my residency match day. The next day I matched into my dream program at Cincinnati Children’s and then spent 3 years learning how to be a pediatrician from the best of the best. Tonight is the eve of the day I will file to run for the US Senate to become the first ever pediatrician Senator, fight for South Carolina’s kids and all 73 million kids in 🇺🇸, and retire Lindsey Graham. Life’s a journey. Do the big thing.

Do the big thing. 🇺🇸

You thought your unvaccinated daughter had a cold. It could be a week before she's diagnosed with measles. By then, the virus “has multiplied and descended upon her lungs, kidneys, tonsils, and spleen, down to the marrow of her bones.” Elizabeth Bruenig writes about how a child dies of measles:
