This brief notes the relevance of the provided content for those working in mental health by illustrating a real-world case of long-term antidepressant tapering and the importance of aligning deprescribing efforts with solid evidence. It highlights how patients’ histories—such as decades of medication use—require careful, individualized consideration rather than broad, unsubstantiated assertions. This underscores the value of cautious clinical reasoning, informed consent, and evidence-based decision-making for psychotherapists, social workers, and other mental health practitioners.

#statnews reporting that USA childhood vaccine schedule might be changing to match Denmarks schedule.

Still trying to determine efficacy of vaccine and dose-pattern specific comparisons. And if th AAP wil follow suit.

I don’t foresee the USA having rh same success given our lack of universal healthcare. They should have started with that before adding more stress and confusion to the USA medical system.

And remember: a mis-matched vaccine still primes the immune system, and the evidence says that is better than not prepping the old immune system in the first place.

Oh, hi STAT. I'm not a regular reader of your publication. Today, a news story from you showed up in my newsfeed. I clicked on it, started to read, and was soon presented with a "give us your email or else" prompt to be able to read the entire article.

Well...

This won't do. Not only did I not give you my email, but you are now banned from my newsfeed.

The last thing I need is more spam in my mailbox, from an organization I don't really care about.

So long, and thanks for nothing.

How a major hospital shows just how inflated hospital list prices are

“Total deductions, which mostly include those negotiated or mandated discounts, were more than $8.6 billion in that same quarter. That means more than 84% of Cedars-Sinai’s gross charges disappeared into the ether.”
