Children with asthma exposed to both tobacco and vaping had a statistically significant 20-40% higher risk of uncontrolled asthma, asthma flares, nighttime symptoms, symptoms with physical activity, need for albuterol, and hospital admissions in the prior year. www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcover...

x.com/amindlesswas... Nicolas Hulscher’s NHIS analysis finds associations, but its cross-sectional design cannot establish whether vaccination preceded autism, and its influenza-vaccine control suggests residual confounding.

@cmyeaton.bsky.social Just read your flu post -- Seattle Children's was at 10% positivity a week ago, with multiple admits. We're seeing many flu cases in our peds primary care clinic, and because we use multiplex testing, we're not necessarily testing because we think it's flu.

Oh and I went to look at ArrayRx and the prices were not good, so ooc I looked at Goodrx and it suggested I use a $20 coupon for Breyna. Screenshot that and sent it to patient. 🤷🏼

It's constantly changing, even the same patient with the same plan. I'll remember there was drama, go back and reread the notes, prescribe what they required last time, and they'll have changed their mind and want something different. I'm sure it's some PBM grift.

PA denied, try Dulera ("step therapy required"). Dulera is the same class of medication, not step therapy. And when I prescribe it, price estimate says $63. PA denial also notes the patient can use an Array Rx discount card instead of their insurance benefits.

I genuinely don't understand how the fuck we're supposed to work with insurance companies. I go to prescribe Symbicort. Price estimate says $50, PA required. I try Breyna, it says $16, no PA required. I prescribe Breyna. PA required.

aren't you just transmuting guilt from theoretically causing the rash to guilt for introducing multiple foods simultaneously? the multi-food exposure didn't cause the allergy either, and most babies won't have allergies to those foods. if they do have allergies, we can figure out which food it is.

Really interesting about lower medication adherence towards the end of a SNAP benefit cycle -- even though they already had the medication, worries about running out of food seems to interfere with the automaticity of daily meds.

regardless of whether parents agree with the EO or not, they seem convinced that it did something, that the federally-recommended schedule has changed, and want to know if we're following that change or not. such a waste of time/energy.

Splitting three vaccines into one was a key part of Wakefield's grift back in the day, and wasn't motivated by science or health or caring about children, but by the fact that he had a financial interest in the single vaccines and wanted to sell them. That's the basis. Not health. Money.
