The Real Josh Weil @therealjoshweil.bsky.social · 17/02/2025
My opponent is currently meeting with Donald Trump in my home district. Randy Fine is a MAGA Republican who wants to criminalize gay kids and completely ban abortion. On April 1, we will vote to reject Randy Fine and Donald Trump's dangerous agenda.

Anti-DEI sentiment is supposedly about meritocracy - yet we still face poor outcomes, errors, & deadly inequities in #healthcare. Doesn't that therefore mean that we might NOT have the right physician workforce? And yet, 95% of docs are white & male.. Help me do the math. (This isn't about merit.)

Buprenorphine cuts opioid withdrawal, cravings, and overdose risk by 50%—yet only 1 in 4 who need it get it. A family medicine provider examines the access gap in Philadelphia - and how some progress is being made. buff.ly/4b1e5pX Ben Cocchiaro, Drexel University #opioids

How opioid deaths tripled in Philly over a decade − and what may be behind a recent downturn
After nearly a decade of annual upticks in overdose deaths, the city saw a drop in 2023, the latest data available. Something may finally be working − but what?

You know Kate Winslet in Contagion? Where she runs into a hot zone, risking her life, so Americans could be safer? She was an EIS officer. That’s who was just fired at CDC today. EIS officers. And many, many more public servants fighting every day for your health.

Here’s a thought: let’s stop listing the latest executive order, without some real recommendation of an action to be taken to counter its impact or eventual legislation. Let’s get over the shock and let’s get organized.

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more. I'm trying to save them. You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

The upsetting issue here is that medical schools have had the opportunity to take on holistic admissions processes with multiple successful examples to emulate that have preserved #diversity and not used the banned tactics… and yet they do not update their approaches.

I'm going to start working on this, and will add to it as more major media outlets join Bluesky. I expect the pace to pick up very soon and very significantly. Major media has let us down significantly over the last ten years, but it's still vital to know what's being reported. go.bsky.app/2JyEju6
