At 50, I’m realizing that accepting the “norm” is not the same as accepting mediocrity. Maybe growth is allowing ourselves—and the people we love—to become who they uniquely are, not who we expected them to be. open.substack.com/pub/drkeisha...

Accepting the Norm

As I approach what many call the golden years and after recently celebrating a milestone birthday, I find myself reflecting more deeply on my life and my achievements.

The CDC has temporarily paused testing across a panel of more than 20 infectious diseases, including rabies, mpox, parasites, and other pathogens. Testing continues at the state and local level, but many laboratories rely on the CDC for confirmation, coordination, and complex case support.

They got better… and then years later, everything changed. SSPE is a rare, fatal brain condition linked to prior measles infection. The long-term risks matter just as much as the initial illness. #medsky #publichealth

National Black Women Physicians Day. Less than 2% of U.S. physicians — yet always leading, healing, and advocating. The Medical Collective is a Black woman physician-led podcast bringing diverse perspectives to healthcare conversations that affect everyone.

Independent autopsies matter — especially when deaths occur in custody. This clip confirms the Autopsy Initiative is reviewing ICE detention cases to provide answers, transparency, and accountability for families. Watch the full episode on The Medical Collective.

Justice doesn’t always mean closure — sometimes it means answers, accountability, and preventing the next loss. Second autopsies matter.

Dr. Keisha @drkeishadavismd.bsky.social · 23/01/2026

At a time such as this, truth requires verification. This clip explains why second autopsies matter when findings don’t align and questions remain. #MedicalTransparency #ForensicPathology

The food pyramid reflects decades of nutritional science, epidemiology, and health outcomes research. When evidence-based guidance is replaced by personal opinion, public health pays the price. #Nutrition #FoodPyramid

Food pyramid tumbling with an X where saturated fats should be at the top of the pyramid, used sparingly

The Trump administration is changing the food pyramid trying to get upside down recommending fats at the top in large quantities

We can’t move forward in medicine if we’re constantly repairing the progress that’s being undone. What do you think we’ve lost the most? #medsky #ScienceMatters #PublicHealth

People are starting to distrust physicians — not because the medicine changed, but because misinformation filled the gaps. This clip breaks down how we got here. Why do you think trust eroded? #medsky #ScienceMatters #PublicHealth

A sentinel node biopsy helps determine if cancer has spread beyond the breast. A dye or tracer identifies the first lymph node draining the tumor area — the “sentinel.” Pathologists test it during surgery to guide next steps. #TheMedicalCollective #AskPath #BreastHealth #Pathology #medsky

Do you remember the tracking device pseudo theory about the COVID-19 shot?💉 And nanoparticles? Nanoparticles = small lipid carriers, not chips. If we’re worried about tracking, start with our phones & smart speakers — not vaccines. #TheMedicalCollective #PublicHealth #ScienceExplained #medsky

🎗️ Men can get breast cancer too. All humans have breast ducts — but only women develop lobules under hormones. That’s why male breast cancers are mostly ductal and often diagnosed late. #TheMedicalCollective #AskPath #medsky 💬 Should breast cancer campaigns highlight men more?

Science feels like WWE right now. At the hearing, Dr. Monarez was attacked by Sen. Rand Paul over hepatitis B vaccines. Testing still matters — moms can contract later & babies can be exposed by caregivers. Day 1 of ACIP? The chair went after AAP for not debating. #medsky #TheMedicalCollective

I’m sure you heard of the news about a child that passed away years after getting measles when they were not able to get vaccinated. This late sequelae is called subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, and can occur sometimes 2 to 10 years after the acute infection.

Let me get on my high horse and say that we have to follow credible sources because even the CDC is an imposter right now. My podcast the medical collective is a perfect place to get information from a diverse group of physicians with a unified mission.
