Thanks to @NYCMayor for championing a single policy change that has the potential to improve so many New Yorkers' lives — an expansion of the Essential Plan could do just that by making those who are uninsured eligible for health care coverage.

Don't give your kids an allowance.
Pay them interest instead.
I made a system that naturally instills the power of compounding and makes them understand money.
Here's how it works, my downloadable worksheet, and the results:

NOW is the time for heightened awareness to be on the lookout for cases of acute flaccid myelitis in patients presenting with weakness: reports of widespread enterovirus D68 circulation across the US + Europe, and polio recently detected in NY and UK.

Now that Acute Flaccid Myelitis (AFM) cases are re-emerging in the US, Europe, and other places it is time to review updated concepts for diagnosis and management. Take a look at the Lancet review and the supplemental material!!

JPeds: Timely, important description of challenges in recognition of acute flaccid myelitis. Only ~1/4 cases promptly diagnosed, ~3/4 with non-AFM initial dx leading to delayed AFM dx/tx @AFMWG jpeds.com/article/S0022-3476…

465 Americans lost their lives today from COVID19. Depending on the org crunching numbers, Covid = 2nd 3rd or 4th leading cause of death on a daily basis in USA. It ain’t over. And some of us expect (me for example) yet another major variant this winter. Get your bivalent booster – at Houston, TX

In addition, see the great explainer🧵below from @firefoxx66 on current #EVD68 situation and modeling, implications for #AFM in the US and Europe 👇👇👇teapawt.net/firefoxx66/status/1565…
Recently I've heard from collaborators in the US & Europe that #Enterovirus #D68 #EVD68 cases are on the rise.
EV-D68 is what I worked on pre-pandemic, & hope to go back to.
A significant autumn 2022 wave has been a recent concern.
So what is D68 & what might this mean?

Be alert, EV-D68 is out there right now!
When I get calls with questions about AFM, I'm going to just refer to this great thread.

My fellows doctors and healthcare providers, if you support firearm safety and agree with common sense gun violence prevention strategies to make our communities safer please retweet this with #DoctorsForGunSafety - this isn’t about the second amendment, just public health
If you are a doctor or healthcare worker who supports action on gun safety tweet #DoctorsForGunSafety

National Public Health Week is April 4-10, a time to remember our public health professionals who work to keep our communities healthy and safe. But effective public health requires all of our support because the health of one of us affects the health of all of us. #immunizeusa
