The electronic medical record was going to save us tons of time, but then someone decided to put in 7 different ways to order everything and put completely inscrutable names on them.

GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic represent one of the greatest advances in metabolic and nutritional health of all time (w/ likely even more health benefits we haven’t fully discovered) but RFK thinks that anyone taking them is “stupid” and “addicted” and just didn’t really try hard enough to lose weight
RFK wants to restrict use of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic
More than 9million prescriptions for Ozempic and similar weight loss drugs are written every year in the US, estimates suggest - which is one of the world's fattest nations.

When insulin was first patented in 1923, the discoverers declined to put their names on it as they felt that insulin belonged to the public.
101 years later, insulin is inaccessible to thousands of Americans because of price gouging by near-monopoly private insurance corporations and their PBMs.

I think the way #MedTwitter & other profesh X hashtags reached a critical point & triggered a mass exodus to Bluesky deserves to be studied. From an outbreak epidemiology standpoint (& as a newbie ID physician) it was incredible!

The migration of MedTwitter, along with a large cohort of science journalists, to BlueSky is striking in its scale and rapidity. In a short time, this shift has effectively transformed BlueSky into the essential hub for breaking medical news and vibrant scientific discourse.
