So convenient that #twitter , a social media app where like-minded people gather to discuss many topics (including political issues) should collapse at a time of social unrest.

Does going to @NFL@twitter.com games increase risk of Covid?

If you are using a humidifier, keep an eye on your windows. If you see condensation at the bottom, wipe it off and back off on the humidification. Condensation and dampness leading to mold is a bigger concern than low humidity.

Powerful piece by Dr. Strong on mishandling of sexual harassment at Stanford. “Had Dr. Perlroth been adequately punished thirty years ago, his colleagues Drs. Montoya and Giacomini, among others, would have felt less emboldened to subsequently commit their own horrible acts…When punishment from prior acts is too lenient, deterrence against future acts will be inadequate.”

The public has no idea how small these units are and how close to the margins they run, even outside of respiratory illness season
Surrey Memorial Hospital (in a city chock-full of families) only has 16 in-patient beds in their pediatric unit

Hi everyone ! I am a French Finn dermatologist based mainly in Helsinki. I have special interests in various aspects of #dermatology including #tattoos #art and #internalmedicine #skinofcolor 👋🏻 I ll write either in Eng, Fra or Fi #IDMastodon #MedMastodon #twittermigration

I guess it's time for introduction on #MedMastodon

Hey everyone, I am a researcher who studies medical #cannabis and #opioids in pregnancy and children (clinical trials baby!)

I'm a first gen academic and tired mom of two toddlers. Expect sarcasm and swearing. #medtwitter

People grumbling that #Mastodon is slow at the moment... You just turned up with 1 million people in a tiny, rural village and you're complaining there's a queue to get into the only tearoom, which is run by gay pensioners Babs & Maureen as a retirement hobby on Mons-Weds. Relax!

“Research suggests that even at significantly reduced capacity, stadiums with 20K+ in attendance were associated with subsequent case spikes in surrounding communities.”

I remember when leaders and NFL bosses gaslit us that games weren’t super spreaders.

Instead of incoherent ramblings about debt immunity, that violate common sense & physical laws, while making a travesty out of #immunology e.g the persistence of #antibodies, just put together these established facts:
1. #Covid damages dendritic cells (DC)
2. DC are important to fight #RSV

Hey,

so far the Weird Al movie is everything I hoped it would be.

Hey @BCTF@twitter.com do you have any thoughts on this?

A dear colleague of mine invited me to imagine my life without the current pandemic(s).
I closed my eyes. I smiled. Took a deep breath.
Recommitted to doing my part to end this thing.
How about you?
