#IDTwitter Highly recommend this article Had no idea that the rates of encephalitis without csf pleocytosis was so high. Especially for HSV-1! Also recommend the accompanying editorial by Bloch and Glaser Must read. doi.org/10.1093/cid/ci…

#IDTwitter Not sure how I missed this. Does the expansion of M1uk explain the increase of virulent iGAS post pandemic? And what’s happened in the US post 2021? Is anyone tracking this? Jonathan Ryder, MD Steven Tong Gabe 🦊 doi.org/10.1093/ofid/o… wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/29…

Alice Han Always challenging interpreting a test (PCR) when its more sensitive than the gold standard (culture). Regarding TOC, I only do it for pharyngeal gonorrhea or patients who remain symptomatic. Chlamydia cure rates are near 100% with doxy. So a TOC that is + is unlikely failure.

#IDtwitter I don’t know what to say about this article. I am in denial that Riley could ever be a potential reservoir for c diff Up to 50% colonization rate seems high… doi.org/10.1093/cid/ci…

I ❤️ this article. The filming of this against the background of white makes every movement pop! “Sometimes the truth that needs to be spoken doesn’t need to be verbal” I couldn’t stop smiling, watching the joy from movement/dance 😊 📣 on Caroline Kim nytimes.com/interactive/20…
