Congrats to my colleagues for this interesting analysis. Looking at patients who met DOTS criteria and receive dalbavancin in our hospital, they differ from the DOTS trial Younger, more IDU, more R-sided IE (less SSTI), and more persistent bacteremia. Yet, outcomes similar #IDSky

Some US transplant centers cater to international patients, mostly from the Middle East. International patients comprise up to 20% of those receiving transplants at some centers (like lungs at Montefiore). Raises important questions about equitability in access. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/16/u...

Hasn't been much discussion of the 40% failure rate to fill ID programs this match year. Interesting. Wonder if anyone is ever going to do anything about that?

The NIH can’t award ANY grants to outside researchers under new WH restriction, reports @wsj.com. The pause came in the form of a footnote from OMB Director Vought, in a document that doles out federal funds to the NIH. Prelude to rescissions, especially after his comments over the weekend?
