The CDC (which I love) is blatantly misleading the public—CDC tells hospitals about aerosol risks of #monkeypox and need for N95 masks. Yet CDC Director deliberately downplays aerosols & masks in messages to the lay public. Shameful. HT Maarten De Cock stacks.cdc.gov/view/cdc/11786…

Welcome to our new fellows Dr. Ana Brar & Dr. Sarah Bernards, who are now one week into fellowship! We are so excited to have you here as our new colleagues @UWGI, & look forward to celebrating with you in person on Friday, July 15th, 6:00-9:00PM at Aqua Verde Marina Cantina. #UW

It's happening! #UTICONF22

What a FANTASTIC way to start a conference! Great talk from Molly Ingersoll about immune responses and immune memory in the bladder😍. Thank you, Dr. Ingersoll! #UTICONF22 (And yes, she did show those pictures 😉)

Kristin Bender from the John David Spencer lab just gave a wonderful flash talk on her project studying the role of insulin resistance on infection susceptibility. Great job, Kristin! #UTICONF22

I should teach them to say “UTI” instead of “Peekaboo”

Proud mama of GI fellow! (on the right ❤️)

RivCo Public Health is reporting 10 new probable/confirmed cases of Monkeypox. All are east county residents between 21 and 71. Total is now 28 probable/confirmed cases in Riverside County.

Great to be at the HVTN booth at #AIDS2022 where an #HIV vaccine is possible.

Although long-acting CAB/RPV is FDA-approved only for PWH w/ viral suppression, this remarkable case series (new in Clinical Infectious Diseases) shows it can work also in those with viremia -- where it could be a life-saving intervention. Clinical trials urgently needed. doi.org/10.1093/cid/ci…

RivCo Public Health is reporting nine new confirmed/probable Monkeypox cases. All are men from the Coachella Valley between 30 and 70 years of age. Total now is 51 confirmed/probable cases in Riverside County.

Love the obligate Figure 1 of the VERY good boys and girls involved in the study academic.oup.com/ofid/article/9…

2/3 Kaiser, UCSF, and Sutter will provide doses via appointments. Kaiser and UCSF will serve patients and non-patients. Please call your provider for more information.

did you know? 10% of children drown while their parents are watching them. WATCHING them. What looks like jumping in the waves can quickly turn into the telltale bobbing or upright drowning position I experienced today.

-44% of ID programs didn't fill their slots -80% of US counties do not have a single ID specialist -ID compensation one of the lowest At what point does this become a crisis? #IDMatch #IDTwitter

After 3 years of heroic and lifesaving work by our nation’s infectious disease physicians, seeing several tweets from top-notch ID fellowship programs that didn’t fill their match speaks volumes about how screwed up our system of rewarding doctors is.
