In Alaska, pharmacists may independently prescribe and administer vaccines under Alaska Statute AS 08.80.168, so there is no requirement for the standing orders that are used in many other states to authorize pharmacists to prescribe a vaccine

Semi-regular reminder that I sprayed fentanyl in my face once and nothing happened except my preceptor and the patient laughed at me.
Poison expert here! If you don’t know whether a solid powder can cross the skin barrier on its own through casual contact then you might need a refund on those certifications. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

The ACA was cool because before the ACA EVERY SINGLE CHILD WITH CANCER hit their annual and lifetime limits almost immediately and were denied insurance for the rest of their lives and after the ACA that’s illegal.
The ACA was cool because before the ACA you could hit your lifetime maximum before you were a month old and be denied insurance for the rest of your life and after the ACA that’s illegal.

Studies show that funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) contributed to 354 of 356 drugs (99.4%) approved by the FDA from 2010 to 2019. Recklessly slashing NIH funding will mean that patients will be waiting much longer for life-saving treatments.
