High blood pressure kills more people worldwide than any other risk factor. Often, people don’t know they have it until it’s too late. Accurate home devices to screen for this conditions and others could be lifesaving. We discuss today for @NBCNews. Please share!

Social media use among adolescents has already shown clear, devastating impacts on academic performance and higher rates of suicide and depression. Parental controls aren’t enough. Australia’s leadership is bold. As we note, vital to research its impacts. @MSNOWNews

Zohran Mamdani’s “Community Safety” team is full of activists who call cops “violence workers,” want prisons “obsolete,” and vow to shrink the NYPD. New Yorkers are test subjects in what may become the largest anti-policing experiment in the world. My latest for @CityJournal

Amid the cacophony of “proposals” to fix healthcare from the party in power, what actually is likely to happen and why? We break through the noise with Secretary (Dr) @DavidShulkin. Hope you’ll tune in! @meidastouch #meidashealth

The health of the nation’s children will not be determined by @RobertKennedyJr and his unqualified deputies. Harmful, and shameful, vote today on Hep B vaccination for babies. Thankful to @AmerAcadPeds for their strong leadership amid chaos.

Please do not take medical advice from this administration. Listen to the actual experts.
Kressly: So let’s talk about the contagiousness of hepatitis B. It can live on surfaces, and it can be spread through touch—from someone who is shedding the virus to someone else. It’s more contagious than HIV. The other problem with hepatitis B is that in adults, at least half

@SenBillCassidy You did this. This is all your fault. You will live with the consequences of your actions forever — and unfortunately, so will all Americans.

"Before the birth dose was recommended, 20,000 newborns a year were infected with hepatitis B. Now, it’s fewer than 20."

Back in January, the President looked the Governor in the eyes on the tarmac at LAX and promised him and the people of LA, that he’d "take care of” Los Angeles’ recovery. That commitment isn’t being met, and instead Trump is leaving survivors behind. His Admin is even failing
NEW: The Trump Administration rejected a request from California Governor Gavin Newsom's office to meet about recovery funds for LA County fire survivors. As a result, fire survivors are now left in limbo with no word on when they will get support.

I'm glad @DrMakaryFDA has time for bullshit mitochondria-energizing techniques or whatever while his agency is in a catastrophic tailspin. I guess now that FDA isn't capable of actual drug regulation, cold plunges are the medicine of the future.
This story of Marty Makary in a cold tub was posted on Gary Brecka's (wellness influencer) Instagram less than a day ago. Contrasts oddly with today's FDA leadership news.

@Acyn Gupta is right: expertise matters. When top radiologists disagree with a practice, it demands scrutiny, not casual dismissal.

Quite the broadside @priyaee_ But maybe, you could give a little credit. @GavinNewsom is going to Washington DC to ensure federal support for wildfire recovery. As the Governor of the state who pays by far the most in federal taxes, thats him doing his job.
Man will do anything but run his state

Overstating vaccine risks, and now calling for splitting MMR into three separate shots for no medical reason whatsoever. It’s why every single medical society and major state collaborations like the West Coast Health Alliance are ignoring this CDC.

Whether it’s stating the basic truth on the President’s health, correcting RFK’s immoral nonsense on childhood vaccines, and holding their cast of “experts” to account, the time is now to stand up for the medical profession. I will continue to do across platforms without fear.
