The cleaning staff at our hospitals are hardly ever mentioned and they also deserve a tribute!

I keep thinking of this Milton Friedman quote: 'Only a crisis — actual or perceived — produces real change. When that crisis occurs, the actions that are taken depend on the ideas that are lying around. (...) the politically impossible becomes politically inevitable.'

I am going to be reviewer 1 and say: #1. The manuscript could likely be shortened. #2. Change ‘one of the biggest game changers’ to ‘HUGE game changers.’

I’m urging @TheFSMB to please see the unanimous support & opinions of physicians practicing in the US & do the right thing in a time of crisis. Do not wait & regret later. Medical Licensure should be automatically valid nationally as it is in federal facilities. #WeAreOneCountry
Calling on all State Medical Boards to immediately issue regulations that all US based physicians licensed to practice in one state are automatically licensed in their state as well. It is possible some states will need urgent medical help. Do my colleagues agree? @drkomanduri

The @CDCgov advice on PPE was problematic during H1N1, but they did eventually provide decent advice. With #COVID19 the CDC has failed us. This has made the job of hospital epidemiologists very difficult. Let me explain. Thread @SHEA_Epi @CarlosdelRio7 @ASlavitt @JInterlandi

More than ever, I've really appreciated the advice of @HonLiangTan @jensenngjs and the Intensivists of Singapore @SICMSG @sganzics, adapting into @anzics COVID guides out soon. If we manage to #FlattenTheCurve we certainly owe them a debt of gratitude. 🇸🇬🇦🇺👍💪🏻❤️🙏

Fantastic graphic from @washingtonpost on the difference social distancing made in the 1918-20 Spanish Flu epidemic. Highly relevant for #coronavirus

Then our health ins. co. came after our pain and suffering settlement. They demanded reimbursement for the $175K they were out. Turns out they were legally entitled to do that. In an instant, our modest settlement - meant to compensate for the loss of our son - was reduced to $0

👇Why bother with academic medicine & clinical research? Get a meaningless promotion? Not worth it Travel around sitting on “manels”? Embarrassing Your name in major journal? Nope Get away from patient care? Hope not! Other motives? Thread below: #medtwitter #FOAMed #FOAMcc
1. To sort out relevant from irrelevant in the care of critically ill and injured patients 2. To sort out relevant from irrelevant mechanisms of critical illness 3. To sort out relevant from irrelevant outcomes 1+2+3=better life & better death to the sickest patient worldwide..
