They're right.

RFK Jr. is a serious threat to public health and our lives. He is undermining vaccines, boosting dangerous conspiracy theories, and decimating lifesaving research.

Resign or be fired. He needs to go.
More than 1,000 HHS workers demand RFK Jr. resign in new letter

#medsky if an insurer is making a “determination if something is medically necessary”, how is it not a medical decision and therefore practicing medicine?
March 15, 2025 at 1:09 PM
#medsky it has to be said that if an insurance company disagrees with admitting a patient with a condition you deemed to be a medical emergency, they are making a medical decision. It means they are practicing medicine. It’s time to held them accountable. Tell your patients, insurers are not docs

Hey #Oncsky if there’s anyone who can help this family out that would wonderful
It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS or other (non-LCH) dendritic or histiocytic sarcomas cases.
