we share comprehensive contemporary trends in mortality across
#heartdisease
subtypes (ischemic, HF, valvular, arrhythmia, & more) across sex, race, age, & geography in the US (1/4)
SGLT2i for prevention of HF for the win (and added bonus re kidney disease and all-cause mortality)
What if we thought of SGLT2i the way we think of statins? Risk modifying therapy. Not a diabetes 💊 anymore
But is it only a diuretic 🙃😇??

Yes, efficiency matters in vaccine distribution. But, we can do more to ensure that it not come at the cost of worsening disparities in communities disproportionately burdened by Covid-19.
