+1, also therapeutic dynamics that get confused by approaching the patient as a customer to be satisfied.
My own personal take on @LauraDelano story is that it is, in some ways, a story of misdiagnosis and over-medication but, crucially, it is not *just* a story of misdiagnosis and over-treatment. It has important things to say to us about making sense of suffering & iatrogenic harm.

Cruel, wasteful, deadly, stupid.

NEW: Rev. Al Sharpton calls from ex-gov Andrew Cuomo to drop out of general election for NYC mayor after big loss in Dem primary . “I think Andrew Cuomo should look at what is best for the city and let them have a one- on-one race. I said that to his people yesterday.”

In NYC, the jail system did something similar so that we could screen every admission + treat them for Hepatitis C. This is what states should be doing w GLP-1’s, which are life saving, life changing meds we can’t afford to withhold because of cost.
Curing hep C brings major benefits to both patients and society by preventing further transmission. Breakthrough drugs did exactly this, but high costs meant low uptake. We @Arnold_Ventures partnered with Louisiana to design a subscription model to scale access without breaking

Dr. @michaelmina_lab starts at 1:04. This is by far my favorite discussion yet of the changes at ACIP.
“Why should I trust you?”. The podcast which is the brainchild of producer @brindaadhikari and Maggie Bartlett is pushing new frontiers in communicating public health issues and surfacing all sides. I joined them to discuss the good and the bad of the recent ACIP shakeup.

Yep. He’s not gonna lose twice, so he’s not gonna run. He just won’t be forced out and will insist on trying to make it seem like he walked away on his own terms.
Why I think it's unlikely he runs:.1- He's terrified of losing.2- His primary campaign shows he doesn't have gas in the tank.3- He's bad at making decisions. Even when he ends up making the right one, he usually flirts with every wrong one along the way, which he's doing here.

I think @ZohranKMamdani should become mayor, and @ericadamsfornyc should take over Vogue.
After 37 years, Anna Wintour is stepping down as Editor-in-Chief of American Vogue, WWD reports. I believe this is a record tenure for an editor of a major American magazine.
