Oscar was born with a calling. His career as a surgeon is defined by helping others. Now, he finds himself on the other side of the equation.

My 5 year old: So your presentation is basically a show-and-tell for grown ups?

Good critical care is 10% performing dramatic interventions, 90% being aggressively persistent with the seemingly mundane details. - Fluid balance - Weaning sedation - Weaning the vent - BMs - Deescalation of lines and tubes - Deescalation of abx/other meds

Hands down the best documentary I’ve watched in a long time. And if you scuba dive or routinely administer conscious sedation, it’s guaranteed to generate additional adrenal squeeze.

In the short run, there is no tradeoff between 3rd shots for vulnerable Americans and getting doses to the world In the longer run, we need to focus on producing more doses My thread with numbers on why we can give 3rd shots to older Americans with doses we can't send abroad
People concerned if we give 3rd shots (booster) to Americans it'll mean fewer shots for the many unvaccinated folks in the world Sounds right But reality is more complicated In the short run, I think we can boost the elderly largely with vaccines we can't send abroad Thread

We should care as much about well-doing as well-being. I want to live in a world that values purpose as much as pleasure, contribution as much as contentment, honesty as much as excitement, and justice as much as joy. A happy life isn't necessarily an honorable life.

I can’t imagine what this year would have looked like without so many incredible physicians caring for the sickest of the sick. We appreciate you more than you’ll ever know #NationalDoctorsDay
