The average 18 year old can get a firearm faster than an appointment with a psychiatrist.
This is a horrific, unchecked problem.

These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way

If you don’t know a handful of women who’ve had an abortion, you’re not morally righteous or statistically anomalous; you’re just not the kind of person women trust with their secrets.

With recent news about masking on public transit and no update on when a COVID vaccine will be available for children under 5, families are understandably frustrated and concerned. Our take on protecting those too young to be immunized right now: 🧵

"It is a mistake to assume that a nonsensible opponent necessarily suffers from some diagnosable psychopathology. Autocratic rulers like Putin ... have incentives so different from those of an ordinary person as to warp their 'rational' goals." bit.ly/3tLsPEt

"Pediatricians are so much more than doctors. You're healers, teachers, counselors. You're lifelines for parents.” @FLOTUS Dr. Jill Biden joined #AAPAdvocacy Conference to share a message about the powerful role pediatricians play in their patients' lives. youtu.be/TG4tPw3nmAA

Thank you @SecBecerra for joining @AAPPres at #AAPAdvocacy to speak to the critical role pediatricians play in caring for children, especially during the pandemic. We are grateful for your leadership and will continue to do all we can to keep children healthy and safe.

Visit with an 11 year old today. Lives with grandparents.
Trying to figure out why he lost a bunch of weight recently.
Turns out grandmother died of #Covid19 and he is now on his own for lots of meals.
Please don't tell me Covid doesn't affect children.

A co-worker ended their life after our shift the other day. Didn't go home and shower. Didn't change out of scrubs. Don't know if it was planned or spontaneous but I do know we got the last living moments. And I don't know how I feel about that.
Our broken team is shattered.
