This is to my international colleagues that know some of the authors of the terrible observational studies of "drugs to treat COVID-19". Where you are you probably have no idea of the harm they are causing.

Odd: randomized controlled trial of *6000* people, simple daily pill lowering mortality in severe COVID seems to be getting *way less* attention than anecdote described by an investigator in a zoom call of a Remdesivir trial without placebo control https://t.co/40ckApLZ6J

A Chicago hospital treating severe Covid-19 patients with Gilead's remdesivir is seeing rapid recoveries in fever and respiratory symptoms, STAT has learned.
The dexamethosone trial #RECOVERY preprint just published. Give credit for fast work, as promised, by these @UniofOxford researchers. No changes from benefit in press release a wk ago. Potential of harm in the no oxygen subgroup noted https://t.co/PcStYxwZca via @cshperspectives

Stress CMR offers patients an accurate noninvasive option to diagnose heart disease with no use of ionizing radiation or nephrotoxic contrast agents. It is cost-effective to society and beneficial to patients.
"Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Stress CMR for Stable Chest Pain Syndromes" published in @JACCJournals Congrats to @RKwongMD & all our SPINS collaborators @opsimo @AnkurFactorial @cshenoy3 @Cardio11 @DipanJShah @heitn001 @HeartDocSubha @hachamr

Article f/ Nebraska Med Center with potential implications for prevention of SARS-CoV2 transmission --> "data is suggestive that viral aerosol particles are produced by individuals that have the COVID-19 disease, even in the absence of cough"
I will summarize this paper released today: People with #covid19 shed virus everywhere around them. The floor, the windowsill, their phone, personal items, the air. Everywhere. #covid4MDs

A must read thread...
In last 24 hrs there've been prominent US voices calling for a stop to social distancing, citing rationale that they're worse than impact of COVID itself. It’s worth looking very closely at that claim, where we are in US COVID epidemic and what happens if we stop. 1/x

This is tragic and increasingly common. We are beginning a campaign in #Boston to reverse the tide of #Indian American MIs & deaths from #heart disease. Will plan to share details. @iamritu @DrMarthaGulati @DrToniyaSingh @DrRupaliGandhi @pnatarajanmd @amitvkhera
Tragic loss of two Indian doctors to CAD. One attending neuro conference in London and cared for by @NHSBartsHealth @BartsHAC and another @Citizenshyd. We need to do more to increase awareness of MI in women @TheBHF @cpgale3 @DrMarthaGulati #cardiotwitter @mdstbarts

I have given many talks in 2019, but none as special as delivering Cardiovascular Medicine Grand Rounds @BrighamWomens today, while surrounded by my closest colleagues, mentors, and trainees. Here's a post talk picture w/ Dr. Eugene Braunwald and Dr. Peter Libby.

That’s what I was thinking as well regarding stress testing. Once we know there is no left main disease with no significant lv systolic dysfunction, what are we achieving by doing stress test?
