             A century ago, infections were the number 1 (and 2 and 3!) killers of our children, and I urge us not to return to those dark times. What will truly make America healthier (ahem)?

             Hi! Joining your feed to share an OpEd I wrote in response to these interesting times in public health. We must not to lose sight of controlling infectious disease even as we turn our focus to solving the chronic disease crisis in the United States. Why does it matter? 1/4

           WORTH A READ: Clinicians are often asked to ‘do everything’ by patients & families; during #COVID19 that 'ask' multiplied. Simone Blaser, a resident in Internal Medicine @nyuniversity explores it in her fine essay "Everything"  https://t.co/GYI8GcHoxP
