NEW: With 54% of Mississippi's hospitals in danger of closing, medical leaders warned state lawmakers of a "looming disaster" unless they expand Medicaid.
Gov. Tate Reeves and House Speaker Gunn have long opposed what Reeves calls "Obamacare expansion."

The current bivalent booster offers superior protection against severe COVID-19, but only 15% of Mississippians aged 65 and older have received it -- the lowest rate in the nation. If it's been more than two months since your last booster, get up to date: msdh.ms.gov/boosters

Large numbers of Mississippians are now being hospitalized for flu or COVID-19. To stay healthy over the holidays, get a seasonal flu shot now, and a current bivalent booster if your last COVID-19 booster was more than two months ago. Where to find one: msdh.ms.gov/page/14,24967,19…

I’ve been a fan of @SaraTheIceBerg’s writings for a long time. Her columns are straightforward patient advice from the physicians of the @AmerMedicalAssn. Really appreciate the opportunity to contribute to her series regarding the who, what, where and when of masks in 2022.
As SARS-CoV-2 evolves, many patients still have questions about when it makes sense to mask up. A family physician offers up some answers. ama-assn.org/delivering-care… (via @AmerMedicalAssn) @jbryan522
Whether or not the "pandemic is over,"
COVID is still here!

I see a lot of people tweeting as if the problem of Jackson, MS water is due to underinvestment by the Federal government. Obviously more money is better than less, but this is largely due to policy choice by MS state government to *not* fix a water system that was in dire shape
