If you are posting about how you are thinking about Children’s Mercy today, this is my message and request: We routinely see kids shot in the peds ED. It’s the #1 killer of children. Show us you care at EVERY. SINGLE. ELECTION. No body count is too high for the GOP.

I am a pediatrician. Trans kids exist. We cannot legislate their identity away. Some people may not like that. That does not make it not true. What we can do is support their happiness and mental health. For many, this simply means leaving them alone rather than targeting them.

COVID can be stopped with everyone wearing a mask and all buildings having excellent ventilation. Monkeypox can be stopped with everyone wearing a hazmat suit and never touching anything again. I am sure this will go fine based off how well the mask/ventilation stuff went.

@RubinReport I have cared for kids admitted to the ICU, permanently disabled, and killed by vaccine-preventable illnesses. 100% of their parents regret not vaccinating. This is the difference between reality (what I do) and opinion (what you do).

Vaccines have been given to 5-11 for about 24 hours now. As expected, their reactions to getting the shot reflect their understanding of how they can be stronger leaders than many adults. They are overjoyed, proud, and overcome with emotion. These little leaders are our future.

Two physicians are quoted in this morning’s @CNN piece ahead of @POTUS pandemic speech. @CincyChildrens own @billpatcourtney is one of them. This is what international leadership in pediatrics looks like.

@memenendez1 In one sense, I love this. In another sense, this worries me a lot. Should matching in the program you want mean getting up at 3:30am to attend lectures as a way to show interest?

@lululemon @wildingpaulaa I looked up who qualifies. It says “nurses, doctors, and support personnel.” What exactly is support personnel and why the focus on doctors and nurses at the exclusion of others? Also, flight attendants are not the same as a paramedic. 🤦‍♂️

@madweber023 It will not accomplish anything for them. Legal precedent is strong. They can get vax, quit, or be fired. This is America. They are free to make whichever choice they want. No one can force them to stay or get vax. They cannot force someone to employ them either.

If you have COVID and wear a non-fit tested N95 and I wear the same, we are safe for 25 hours. 🤯 If we both wear a fit-tested N95, we are safe for 2500 hours. 🤯🤯🤯 All HCWs should be in fit-tested N95s right now if caring for COVID patients.

@KrugAlli You did not help. You made the job of pediatricians advocating for the health of all children harder at a time when people do not trust us as much as they did just a few years ago. Your tweets will be used to make poor decisions that will have deleterious consequences for kids.

This is America. These are two American doctors. They are immigrants. @vivek_murthy is on @JoeBiden COVID committee and former surgeon general @MonaHannaA is this century's quintessential public health advocate Immigrants are what makes us great. @AAMCtoday

@richardursomd I have worked at some of the world’s largest and best children’s hospitals. Kids absolutely have strokes. I care for them. I am sorry your stroke team does not care for them.

Number 2! 🥳 I will be celebrating by wearing and mask and staying home for months. This vaccine is a free pass for nothing until everyone reading this has 2 shots and cases are exceedingly low. Please get your vaccine so this is not 2022 or 2023.
