Sen. Cassidy says measles surge will be Trump administration’s ‘terrible legacy’ More accurately, It will be Cassidy’s legacy since he, as a physician, knew RFK Jr had a long record of anti vaccine activities and no knowledge of science, medicine, or public health.

If there ever was doubt about the integrity of SCOTUS, this decision has eliminated it. Corrupt, bought and paid for justices. Afraid of trump or his financial supporters (or both). Cowards and losers.

I had that happen to me several times by male physicians at conferences. My nurse scientist friends likewise report this phenomenon. (Not a male or physician hater; have quite a few of both in my family). It certainly takes some confidence to do something like that.

Great example (albeit unintended) of his tenure at the CDC. An overall negative effect on US public health.

Dr Fauci is a physician scientist who served our country well for many years. He did his best guiding us as Covid evidence evolved. He’s a good man. Rand Paul is misguided and vindictive. His attacks on Dr Fauci are ridiculous and confirm Rand Paul for the fool he is. A small man with a vendetta.

www.beckershospitalreview.com/physician-wo... Provider is vague and does accurately reflect the clinician being described or referenced. It implies a similarity among roles that is often incorrect. In our journal, we require authors to be specific about what type of clinician/s they mean.

For each additional pt assigned to a med-surg nurse, 8% increase in fatality risk at 30 days, 4% increase in readmission. Safe nurse staffing based on national standards saves lives. In maternity care, that means AWHONN nurse staffing standards (2022). www.beckershospitalreview.com/quality/pati...

Why don’t more journalists point this out? They likely have all of the Epstein files including videos of trump, plus other atrocities we don’t know of yet, and massive financial crimes. I’ve always thought Putin and Netanyahu were blackmailing trump. That would explain a lot of his actions.

It's completely insane to me that it's even up for debate among senators that Kristi Noem should resign. Every lawmaker and newspaper editorial board in the country should be calling for her resignation. She has entirely failed in this role. She is incompetent. She is a disaster.

At least a handful of times I’ve received reviews that told me I should be familiar with my own work and cite it to make my manuscript better. I guess it’s kind of flattering. Fortunately the editors overlooked these reviewer comments.
