Soooo... while #ReplyAllGate was happening this afternoon, I got to do an interview with #KTTC news about the #TriplePandemic of #COVID #RSV #Influenza & the medication shortage.

Takeaways for prevention & care of #fever:
#MaskUp
#GetVaccinated
No aspirin for kids or teens
No cool baths--> shivering, which raises body temp

Children fever reducer medication shortage hitting Rochester

There’s a nationwide shortage of kid’s pain reliever medication, and we’re feeling the effects in Rochester.

This is, without a doubt, the very best reply all email of all time 🤣💖

Please believe me when I say that physicians would really appreciate it if everyone would #GetVaccinated #WearAMask #StayHome during this ongoing #pandemic of #COVID #RSV #Influenza

The future of infectious diseases? If you think that adult ID has a problem filling training positions in the 🇺🇸 (25.6% unfilled in the recent #FellowMatch): check peds ID - the majority of positions are unfilled!

Has anyone noticed patients who have been stable on #FocalinXR or one of its generics suddenly stop tolerating it? I've seen several recently. #mood #appetite #duration have all been issues in different people.

Has there been a change in any of the manufacturers?

#tootiatrician? I don’t know @DrJaimeFriedman - it doesn’t quite have the same ring!

#introduction

Thrilled to join #MedMastodon and the great conversations already taking off. Was never on that bird site. I am a #physicianscientist and pediatric cardiologist with an interest in cardiac #genetics, #stemcells, and #raredisease. Transitioned to #pharma in 2021 and hope to advocate for safely speeding up #pediatric #clinicaltrials. Also believe #CovidIsNotOver and we must #BringBackMasks to address the RSV/flu/COVID crisis. #tootiatrician #cardioverse

I should have done adolescent medicine electives because that would have helped me more than spending 4 months in the NICU. #tootiatrician #pediatrics
