"The crew of the space shuttle Challenger honored us by the manner in which they lived their lives. We will never forget them … as they … 'slipped the surly bonds of earth' to 'touch the face of God.'" Ronald Reagan spoke these words to the Nation in an address delivered 40 years ago today. That morning a tragic accident took the lives of the seven astronauts aboard Challenger. #NASARemembers them on this 40th anniversary of the disaster. Their legacy constantly guides our commitment to learning, vigilance, and safety. Francis R. "Dick" Scobee Michael J. Smith Judith A. Resnik Ronald E. McNair Ellison S. Onizuka Gregory B. Jarvis S.

This move (and the departure of other @CDCgov senior leaders) leaves us all less safe in an era of increasing infectious disease threats. It’s another example of Sec. Kennedy’s chaotic leadership. And it will not make America healthy again.
Susan Monarez is no longer director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. We thank her for her dedicated service to the American people. @SecKennedy has full confidence in his team at @CDCgov who will continue to be vigilant in protecting Americans against infectious diseases at home and abroad.

Every time someone blames physician compensation for high healthcare costs, the health insurance executives and shareholders smile.

This is the type of doctor @UHC employs as a “medical director.” This person is denying medical claims in the year 2023.

The workhorse of the hospital, #InternalMedicine Girl puzzles over the inner workings of the body & gets at the diagnosis with the help of her A-line arrow! (Yes, that’s k-dur in her hair.)

Happy 20th anniversary to Failer, which came out January 14th, 2023. What a wild 20 years it’s been. Thanks for loving it, my heart is pretty full (and my eyes a little misty) today. ❤️

Leave Twitter just because it’s losing its entire infrastructure and is terribly understaffed? Babe, I’m an ER Doctor in the U.S. Healthcare System

My patient is tired. We're all tired. I shouldn't have to beg you on Twitter to let us prescribe a medication that's clearly part of the recommended care for this patient. But her mom asked me to do it -- to do whatever it took to get her better. And I will.

The just-announced U.S. Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization represents a stunning reversal of precedent that inserts government into the personal lives and health care of Americans. nej.md/3Aa5cKe

But American healthcare is in shambles, like a driverless, tireless, MAC truck, full of human lives, and about to drive off of the overpass with everyone on board.
