RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process. So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel. Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

As doctors and nurses, it is our moral duty to care for every person who walks through the door & needs medical help. Allowing ICE to raid hospitals & clinics is immoral and will lead to needless suffering & death. Reading this made me cry...what nation have we become? #medsky

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees that if you don't want to be compared to Nazis, stop referencing shit from Hitler's speeches, stop supporting far-right extremists in Europe, and stop making Nazi hand gestures. Can you not see what we mean?

As a white leftist Family Medicine doctor in upstate New York, I will do all that I can to continue providing care for the marginalized & under-resourced in my community, provide full spectrum reproductive health care, care for my LGBTQIA+ neighbors, & support those who seek asylum. #FMRevolution
If not us, who? If not now, when? Attributed to John F Kennedy, but is actually a paraphrasing of Hillel the Elder.

RESIST. Don't quit. Don't stop fighting. Don't obey in advance. Don't stop calling them out. Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can. Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone. Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight. RESIST.

FM doctor here. Fly A and HMPV are skyrocketing and they can give you nasty viral pneumonia (even if you’re young and healthy). Get vaccinated, wash your hands, wear a mask. People are really, really sick.
