Some vaccines like COVID and flu don’t stop completely stop infection.
But they do reduce the risk of getting infected and greatly reduce severe illness risk.
They are still worth getting.
Since they are not 100% effective it’s also wise to add another layer of protection by wearing a mask.

It’s impossible to provide good healthcare to our patients when they don’t have food. So we’re buying them food: allbrainsbelong.org/help-our-pat...

Yet another inside-out autism research headline! This time it's
"Increased prevalence of autism in the children of fibromyalgia patients," when fibromyalgia is a common co-occurring condition for autistic people, so those autistic kids' parents are likely autistic too.
DO BETTER AUTISM RESEARCHERS!

Ask people what would make them comfortable -- do those things.
Ask people what stresses them out -- don't do those things.
This should not be a radical way of delivering healthcare.

Medicare, as of today, will no longer cover telehealth visits.
I can’t imagine a bigger slap in the face to our patients.

We found a link between SARS-CoV-2 reinfection & #longCOVID, & a post-pandemic rise in thrombotic events across all populations, regardless of vaccination or prior infection. Findings support continued COVID diagnosis in suspected cases & mask use by healthcare workers treating respiratory patients

What does a neuroinclusive healthcare office look like?
Whatever it needs to look like to meet patients’ needs. ‘One size fits all’ does not work for all.

Most doctors were never taught how Autistic and ADHD patients' physiology works.
That’s why so many patients are told their symptoms are “anxiety" and are told to lose weight, move more, and other misguided advice. Meanwhile, their neuroimmune systems rage on: allbrainsbelong.org/all-the-things

People continue to act like disabled & covid caution folks want to return to lockdowns. We don’t.
We want clean air in public spaces. Paid time off. Better access to testing. Free respirators and mandatory masking in healthcare.
Those steps would drastically reduce spread.

I am a patient care specialist in an internal medicine/geriatric office. We are a small practice, with one doctor.
We still require masking at all times in the office…. My Medical Assistant has never had covid. We have never spread covid.
Just a thought.
