A bit of positive news today. FDA has just approved Lenacapavir for PrEP in the US. In clinical trials one injection every 6 months was close to 100% effective in preventing HIV transmission.
PrEP is for everyone who needs it.

Love education about asthma “plus” disorders and other eosinophilic processes. Things like EPGA and ABPA often under recognized in our patients with poor control. Having a basic framework helps increase likelihood of diagnosis and treatment. #pulmsky
Giving one of my favorite talks this week. Fellows usually know that they need to care about eos + pulmonary complaints, but before I put this together I always had trouble organizing my differential. This is how I think about these diseases now.
