To my fellow Docs, Nurses and Allied Health Professionals — Rise Up. We need more of us in elected positions.
I will have your back, as will many others.

Three years ago today, Putin's tanks rolled into Ukraine, and Russian aircraft began bombing the country.
Trump is lying. Russia started the war, not Ukraine.
Putin is a dictator, not Zelensky.

“We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff.
They are calling this ‘Phase 1’.”

So much for Government Efficiency...
USAID was buying $2 billion in crops from U.S. farmers. Now it’s gone. But sure, blame immigrants and not Felon47.

I’d recommend everyone regardless of medical risk bring a mask on your airplane journey, a disinfectant wipe to clean the seat you’re in and hand sanitizer.
It’s going to be on you alone to protect your health.
Warning signs are everywhere.
