Hey fellow healthcare pros, when you start feeling those telltale viral URI symptoms, do you play detective and check for flu or COVID, or do you just conveniently forget to test to avoid the isolation staycation?

I used to think I was rational. Then I read Daniel Kahneman's Nobel Prize-winning work on human decision-making. He routinely asks 8 questions to expose cognitive traps you fall into daily. Test yourself with these questions (it's the ultimate BS detector for your brain):

Providers find it difficult not to treat once they have a positive U/A or UCx, independent of whether it was appropriate to test and when they know the evidence doesnā€™t show a benefit in treating asymptomatic bacteriuria. Goal needs to be reducing testing. academic.oup.com/ofid/advance-aā€¦

Happy to see the mRNA platform being used for mpox But, after Covid, I have little hopes that companies like Moderna care about access or equity That's why Africa's mRNA hub is critical! statnews.com/2024/09/04/modā€¦
