stunningly, I recently spoke to a young man whose sister died in the Parkland shooting and who has family members who are *still* staunchly pro-gun. he told me "people think it will change if it happens to them but it happened to us and it didn't change a thing"

We hear it often: "Kaiser spends $50M on housing," "United HC donates $3M to food security..." so we asked, how much are private insurers REALLY spending on #SDOH? Our work in JGIM Journal of General Internal Medicine attempts to answer this Q -- you may or may not be surprised. link.springer.com/article/10.100… 1/x

Illicit fentanyl, often sold in fake pills disguised as real medicine & sold on social media is harming our kids. 80% of drug-induced deaths for GenZ involve fentanyl. Many aren't even aware, & the knowledge gap is worst among teens. 🧵explainer + resources to close the gap.
