How should a rabbit properly wear a gaiter?

Hoodie style for wind protection or around the neck like a scarf?

My brother is a tech dude. He got his dream job working for NVIDIA on their autonomous driving program.

He left after two weeks because it's run by a bunch of idiots.

Pediatrics corner:
Avoid using terms like beautiful and cute when describing kids old enough to understand because it teaches them that beauty is the most important attribute.

Sweet, kind, cool, awesome, and great are preferred alternatives.
Trump: I am fine. You sound beautiful and cute. How old are you?

Caller: I am eight

Hippie coffee shop...
Me: yes I would like a drip coffee with cream and sugar please.
Them: we don't have cream and sugar. We can do coconut milk and agave?
Me: Sure (😥)

The ages and stages questionnaire that we use to evaluate the development in 2 year olds has a question about identifying animals based on an image.

Australia uses a single dose of HPV9 (Gardasil). In the US it's a 2 or 3 dose series depending on the age of the 1st dose.

This is a worthy conversation that we should have if we had a competent HHS.
Congrats to Australia, this is really cool!

If there is a tamiflu shortage this year I blame twitter's #1 catastrophist EFD for advising people to stockpile prescription antivirals.

The number of infants I have taken care of this week with influenza and parents afraid to give them Tylenol is more than zero.

Thanks RFKj.

As a doctor I recommend the AAP childhood vaccine schedule. 😎

Want to impress your friends and family this holiday season with obscure holiday knowledge? A deep dive into the medical conditions likely afflicting Tiny Tim by the late pediatric nephrologist Russell Chesney:

There's two ways to do this:
1. Give fewer of the existing shots
2. Remove components from the existing vaccine schedule

The problem with #1 is the FDA approval and RCTs are based on the schedule as defined.

The problem with #2 is how do you pick which diseases to no longer protect against?
Again. It’s not the legitimate scientists at HHS who want to “overhaul the childhood vaccine schedule.

It is RFK Jr. and his handpicked group of megalomaniacs who believe that their ignorant whims override the entirety of the body of scientific evidence for vaccines.
HHS planning to overhaul childhood vaccine schedule to recommend fewer shots, source says | CNN
The US Department of Health and Human Services is planning to overhaul the schedule of recommended vaccines for children in the US, a person familiar with the plans told CNN on Thursday.

YEARLY TAMIFLU PSA:

If you google "pediatric tamiflu dosing" the first chart in the search results shows the dosing guide for the 12mg/ml suspension. This is not the common commercially available concentration and is completely incorrect. Please use the second one if you're gonna do this.

Pretty cool seeing a:

Adult C-T surgeon (Oz)
Non-boarded non-clinical MD (JayB)
Urologist (Adm. Christine)
Abdominal surgeon (Makary)
FUCKING NOBODY (Jim O'Neill)

Tell us to stop blackmailing parents. None of these doctors has ever treated a pediatric patient with gender incongruence.

The executive order from January already took away medications (hormone therapy, puberty blockers, oral contraceptives for gender affirming uses). The only things that our local pediatric gender care clinic can still do for minors is counseling.

RFKj wants to get rid of counseling.
