Here is the pre-RFK vaccination schedule for your kids. Please download it before he is confirmed and changes/deletes it. Give it to your pediatrician and say this is the schedule you want your kids on. Making this my pinned post.

I got to meet my agency "siblings" and they're all wonderful. Can't wait to read their books!

Spike Protein Lingers in Brain, Fuels Long COVID www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

My 12-year-old daughter was on a Discord call with her friends when one of them made fun of her for her COVID precautions. She replied, "I don't want brain damage." The kid's dad chimed in, "You won't find any real proof that COVID causes brain damage." So he's getting a care package from me.

This is James Gillchrist, an Iraq war veteran and teacher. He was just fired from Rockhurst High School, a private school in Kansas City, for speaking out against Donald Trump. REPOST if you stand with Gillchrist as he speaks truth to power!

FYI, you can remove your post from a troll quoting you. Here’s how.

I see so many people posting that they're isolated because of their COVID precautions, but they never say what city they're in. I'm fortunate to have recently found an amazing still COVIDING community in KC, but if you're looking for one, post your city so they can find you! 🥰

My kids and I quit Jiu Jitsu to keep safe from COVID. It's one of the things I miss the most from pre-pandemic life, but studies like this show it was a smart decision. threadreaderapp.com/thread/16528...

Hey former #tweetiatricians... Follow the PedSky list to see posts from fellow pediatricians and others who use the word PedSky or tweetiatricians in their post. You can also add your name as a contributor so you don't need to use those words. Ask me how!

Interesting TikTok about vaccine disinformation killing off more republican voters than dems. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT88311om/

Medsky - Here's a great free resource. You can email a picture of a tick to support@tickreport.com and they'll identify the tick and estimate how long it fed for. Disease testing for peace of mind is $50 by mailing the tick in. 🩺

One week ago, a court in California ruled that employers cannot be sued for spreading COVID to their workers due to lack of protections. This week, In-N-Out banned their employees from wearing masks. This is horrible.

Several of my friends have asked for medical advice to deal with their long COVID symptoms. None of them have posted about them publicly, but they do share tons of maskless vacation pics. I hate how misleading this is. If you have long COVID, please share that side of the story, too. 🩺
