Dr. Ramas knows that effective treatment for opioid use disorder can mean the difference between life and death. I am honored to bring @docramas as my guest for the State of the Union and help raise awareness about our new law to expand access to medication-assisted treatment.

The anchor of my youth, adolescence, and young adulthood. A parting message to heed, for certain. Thank you, Jim Gardner.

I take no pleasure in being right. Pray for Tua. We saw this coming. Get angry. Get involved with @ConcussionLF to make sure the @NFL can't do this again.
If Tua takes the field tonight, it's a massive step back for #concussion care in the NFL. If he has a 2nd concussion that destroys his season or career, everyone involved will be sued & should lose their jobs, coaches included. We all saw it, even they must know this isn't right

This is a reminder to vet data sources. Anyone citing Norway needs to look at the data and the story that the website is trying to sell you.

We are not the only country with mental health crises. We are not the only country with broken politics. We are, however, BY FAR, the country with the biggest issue with school shootings, with mass shootings. This is a public health emergency, it is our tragedy to fix. #Uvalde

Today is the 144th day of 2022. The Uvalde shooting is the 212th mass shooting of 2022. Gun violence is a public health crisis.

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

Not like we had been saying all along “Wait for better quality studies” or anything…

The nurses, doctors, orderlies, and every other healthcare worker who sacrificed and risked their lives do not deserve this insanity. They held the line until vaccines arrived just to be treated with contempt from people who will demand care when the get sick - which many will.
