Far more people will happily wear a mask if there is a mandate than if there isn’t.
#BringBackMasks
I’ve worked in and for hundreds of cities all over the world. The cities that are doing amazing and innovative things aren’t cities with ideal weather, or topography, or size, or demographics, or wealth, or regulatory systems/powers, or even politics.
They’re the cities that have stopped making excuses.
microscopic #hematuria, which is persistent, may be at increased risk of #CKD - hard to see all in secondary care though long term so clarify plan in letters to primary care physicians ….
🚨 A common misconception is that we do not need to focus on #LongCovid because most people get well over time. Turns out that this is not true. A new meta-analysis shows that symptoms on average decrease by 50% during the first month but then stabilize. https://www.valueinhealthjournal.com/article/S1098-3015(22)04743-X/fulltext

It's basic physics... saying masks don't work (they literally filter aerosols containing the virus!), is like saying gravity is a myth.

"Here are the key points:
You can catch Covid multiple times.
Reinfections are common, not rare.
Breakthrough infections are common.
Covid can kill you months after you recover.
It can cause brain damage.
It can cause blood clots and heart attacks.
It doesn’t spare children.
Vaccines help, but only some.
Masks work."
Today on Black Friday is the perfect day to sue the state over its insufficient climate policies.
So that’s what we did.
See you in court!

Q. Was your biggest mistake as the World Health Organisation’s chief scientist not calling #SARSCoV2 airborne?
A: ‘Based on available evidence, we were not forcefully saying: ‘This is an airborne virus. I regret that we didn't do this much, much earlier.’
I put Narcan in my car 3 days ago. I used it today. I saved a life. You can, too. #SaveALife #CarryNarcan
Beautifully said.

Pediatricians don't "lose it." We spend our days trying to model self-regulation. We don't wave and yell. I've had media people tell me we're "too reserved." We cry at work and at home after a kid dies, but we're pretty quiet otherwise.

Happy Thanksgiving. If you’re indoors with lots of people, good idea to add ventilation and filtration. Wear a good mask as much as you can. Lowers risk of inhaling SARS2 and getting Covid as well as other respiratory viruses like flu and RSV too! #CovidIsntOver #COVIDIsAirborne
