20-40% reduction of cancer specific mortality from leisure time physical activity (mostly walking) for breast, colon, and prostate cancer. I see value in walking. Resistance ex has value too, of course, but let's recall the mortality benefits from walking.
Interesting to still hear the complete fallacy that “walking is enough” and “just moving makes a difference” when thinking of exercise medicine for cancer. Sure, it helps. But it does nothing for muscle or bone health- two tissues with direct links to frailty and premature death.

What it’s like to be in healthcare right now: “We will pay you $2 for that pie” “But it costs me $4 in pie ingredients and $2 in human labor to make a pie. We need $6 to break even” “Sorry, we’ll only pay you $2 for that pie. We suggest you make many more pies that you also

Today’s SCOTUS decision means mifepristone remains available in states where abortion is legal. We're relieved, but this case isn’t over yet. Mifepristone shouldn't be at risk in the first place. Everyone deserves to get the medicine they need.
Good news for now: SCOTUS ruled against restricting access to mifepristone, a pill for medication abortion & miscarriage care. It's still available in states that allow it. 🙌 But this case is being sent back to the district court. The fight for our rights isn’t over yet.

No I’m sorry 3 years is way too long for a fellowship. 6 months max. You can learn 99% of the job in 6 months. Everything else goes to Mayo.
