What’s your most important life lesson that you wish you learned ten years earlier?

Julie Zhuo Put down the phone/technology and focus more on connecting with the people around you. Equally important: be stricter about choosing the kind of people you get close to; they influence so much of what you think the world is made out of.

Buy your med students coffee. That’s it. That’s the tweet.

@jd_wilko Aleef Rahman, MD, MPH, MBA @I_AM_AbouSetta Maarten van Smeden The qcovid models are an impressive piece of work and we have scored them at low risk of bias. They are published in BMJ. Check out our paper, at each update we have identified the most promising ones.

Now everyone 5 years and older can receive the COVID-19 booster, according to the FDA and CDC. Schedule your booster today and ensure you have the highest degree of protection against COVID-19.

Commotio cordis is one of those things you only really read about :/

I’m told Damar Hamlin has a pulse, but is not breathing on his own. He is being transported to UC. Needed AED and CPR on the field.

Thinking about Demar Hamlin. Commotio cordis is caused by an abrupt blow to the chest at exactly the wrong time in the cardiac cycle. Must be resuscitated with an AED.

Update on Damar: His vitals are back to normal and they have put him to sleep to put a breathing tube down his throat. They are currently running tests. We will provide updates as we have them.

Dr. Jonathan Reiner says Damar Hamlin who is in critical condition suffered a cardiac arrest called Commotio cordis caused by a sharp blow to the chest. #PrayersForDamarHamlin

I’ve seen a lot of people wondering why Hamlin was on the field for so long. The medical literature overwhelmingly supports working cardiac arrests in place for best outcomes. If commotio cordis, even more important for early defibrillation/CPR. Textbook work tonight.

Damar Hamlin suffered a cardiac arrest following a hit in our game versus the Bengals. His heartbeat was restored on the field and he was transferred to the UC Medical Center for further testing and treatment. He is currently sedated and listed in critical condition.

....FYI: Commotio Cordis is NOT caused by #COVID19 vaccines or any other vaccines!!!!! #DamarHamlin #BillsMafia

Great summary article about the tragic collapse of #DamarHamlin. Wishing for a speedy recovery.
