Una poesía con versos aclamados por un pequeño pueblo. Este oro es para quien realmente ha creído en mí. También para mis hijos, esposa y mis padres. Los amo! Sepan seguro que los días más grandes se escriben con la misma tinta de olimpo. Gracias Ecuador 🇪🇨

In California, the Delta variant is 30% of cases, and vaccinations are fairly high (>61% population 1-dose or more), cases have started to creep up again, 17% in past 2 weeks and that's with 62% less testing (<-complacency)

#Remdesivir 5 vs 10 day treatment for severe #Covid_19 results- Congrats to our hardworking clinical team! @StanfordDeptMed @StanfordASP
#Remdesivir 5 vs. 10 day treatment trial for #severe #COVID19 is out! - 5 days enough for most patients (shorter is good) - Outcome strongly influenced by severity of disease within stratum (earlier is better) - Outcomes comparable to #ACTT1 overall link:nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…

THREAD: Lots of alarm over the 🚨88% Mortality🚨among #Covid19 patients on ventilators. The paper *should* say "Among pts on vents, mortality will range from 25-97%". This @JAMA_current study is a great for a JournalClub on "Beware Your Denominator"👇(1/7) jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
