I’ve been a doctor for a quarter-century. I care 1000x more about whether you are curious, kind, earnest, & communicate well with both patients & colleagues than whether you have any publications when you apply to med school/residency/fellowship. #MedTwitter #AcademicTwitter

Today's CDC early release paper on H5N1 in cattle & cats points to "raw colostrum & milk" as the likely source of cat infection. But if mechanical milking is the main vector, colostrum shouldn't be contaminated because the cows wouldn't yet be infected. wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30…

I am currently working on the recurrent UTI management algorithm for @midihealth & it is legitimately thrilling to make care pathways that are centered on the unique physiology of peri & menopausal women. We will put prevention with vaginal hormones front & center.
@thijskuiken They don’t want testing which would expose a crisis. The industry wants this issue to disappear. They’re not focused on unfettered spread causing mutations or worker infections sparking H2H transmission. They see this as an industry PR problem to be solved with messaging.
Very nice! But I still have to remind everyone about the risk from droplet infection, which can't be prevented by air purifier. Better choose a place far from other people.

@masknerd The same debate with aircraft ventilation advocates. 12+ ACH isn’t enough considering the other factors at play in an aircraft cabin. Bluff bodies, very poor mixing, vent blockages, all change the flow environment to the point you can’t predict absolute risk reduction.

This is super interesting and useful inquiry! Not only does CO2 provide a measure of rebreathed fraction & a proxy for fresh air intake, it’s also a measure of air pH which directly impacts viral decay.
I’m excited to discuss our latest research on how ambient CO2 affects how long #SARSCoV2 remains infectious in air. We report that even subtle increases in CO2 affects both how long #COVIDisAirborne and transmission risk. Here’s a🧵going over the findings nature.com/articles/s4146…
