Yet reason 1,283,873 NOT to use Amazon for your healthcare. Doc alleges she was fired for raising patient safety concerns.

Amazon should be treated no differently than a private equity group buying out a hospital. They paid 3.9 billion for that system and now like with a private equity acquisition its $$$$$ profits over people as the wring every bit of money out of that place then will walk away leaving shattered lives and a empty hulk of where a medical practice used to be.

Study after study demonstrates worse outcomes after this happens (see next reply)

🇨🇦 Hey, Canada! This is what our Conservative politicians want for our country!

AFTER insurance, $465.00 US for One doctor's appointment!
Can't possibly happen here? I'm sure Americans thought the same.

Yesterday I attended an online Patients’ Circle about healthcare and medical issues in the United States, a side project of the “Be a Hero” group, called The Patients Union. Basically a grassroots, mutual aid-ish, advocacy group attempting to give people power to change healthcare and how they are treated in the system. So far it is just starting to organize, with some areas already working to help with denials and appeals. It will be more than this though because there is so much more needed!

Has anybody else heard of this? It’s just started, not much is on the fediverse, and their website is not great… or, they are still in he just getting started mode, not ready to launch, brainstorming mode.

Any suggested hashtags, discussion, or links welcome!

Neil deGrasse Tyson's StarTalk Podcast - February 28, 2026
"How did we go from digital computers to AI seemingly everywhere? Neil deGrasse Tyson, Chuck Nice, & Gary O’Reilly dive into the mechanics of thinking, how AI got its start, and what deep learning really means with cognitive and computer scientist, Nobel Laureate, and one of the architects of AI, Geoffrey Hinton.

"Hinton explains the fundamental shift from logic-based rule programming to the biological approach: building systems that learn the way a brain does. Learn about the history of computer science that led to the breakthroughs we have today. We break down the structure of artificial neural networks and the meaning of AI buzzwords like “deep learning” really mean. You’ll learn about the layering of data processing and how the first layer of neurons might detect a simple edge, the second a beak, and the third a bird’s head."

Apologies for going overboard with the mentions and hashtags, but this was one deep podcast and there were a lot of topics covered that are relevant to AI:

UC Riverside: A gel for wounds that won’t heal. “As aging populations and rising diabetes rates drive an increase in chronic wounds, more patients face the risk of amputations. UC Riverside researchers have developed an oxygen-delivering gel capable of healing injuries that might otherwise progress to limb loss.”
