There are times
when I worry
that I am running out
of ways to say
that we must take care
of each other.

But most of the time
I am just worried
that we are running out
of time in which
to start taking care
of each other.

And so
I will just keep saying:
take care
of each other.

Donald Trump is treating the destruction of a democracy as a political show — throwing Ukraine to the wolves and doing a favor for Putin.

It's shameful and dangerous.

I've been to Ukraine, as have many Senate Republicans. I hope they speak up. Millions of lives are at stake.

Excellent explainer about bird flu. Be vigilant and always listen to Dr. Gupta @vinguptamd.bsky.social !
Long shift. Had 5 mins to sign on to shaky hospital WiFi. Lighting not exactly studio-quality.

But whatever it takes to get the message out.

Be vigilant for you and your family. I’m seeing severe Flu cases in our ICU.

This is preventable. #medsky

In times of unthinkable human tragedy in California, Donald Trump is doing what he always does: make it a thousand times worse.

He is incapable of kindness or decency or maturity. He does not possess a single noble impulse.

At times I wonder
how it can be
that we cannot seem
to get control
of all these viruses
but then I will see
a headline such as:
“Louisina forbids
public health workers
from promoting
Covid, flu, and mpox shots,”
and after that, for a moment,
I cease wondering.
