Before the pandemic, my wife & I went on a date w/some lesbians. One of them happened to work for counter intelligence, but that is not important to this story We decided to meet in Fells Point, because before all the random shootings, it was the place to go This is an unintentional pun you’ll see

1. Aspirin - too many indications 2. Dextromethorphan - too useless 3. Simethicone - equally useless A. ondansetron - popular choice B. Nystatin - similar risk benefit profile to clotrimazole C. Mupirocin - Neosporin is crap and the risk of developing resistance with topicals is low

Rotavirus can be lethal. Before the vaccine, rotavirus killed 500,000 children each year across the world. Post vaccine it still causes 200,000 deaths per year worldwide. In the United States, childhood deaths from rotavirus range from 20-40 per year. This child looked like their pH was 6.9

Graph these by salary and you’ll get the same results. Pediatricians get paid less because our society doesn’t value children, and particularly sick disabled children. And as pediatricians we have accepted a system where we are devalued because we advocate for our patients instead of ourselves.

We talk about it in the hospital like it doesn't happen anymore, but it does. The knowledge gap is two-fold: yes, that IV hydral can cause more harm than good, but also that asymptomatic HTN while hospitalized usually does not need emergent treatment (or treatment at all). #medsky
