Just bc someone has a pre-existing health condition, does not mean they would have anyways died this month, this year, or this decade. 'Underlying health condition' should not equal 'acceptable that they died'.

And this is why I am a huge advocate of removing race from most question stems. It’s often unnecessary to arrive to the clinical diagnosis and students usually anchor on race when that race is non-white. Any person can get any illness.

We began this journey with a passion to serve our community seeing first hand how so many black & brown people have been marginalized in our society. It’s no wonder we both chose EM. A field where we can see anyone who needs us. I’m so grateful for that decision. #MedTwitter #EM

I just asked JQP, Chief of Disaster Medicine at GW Emergency Medicine, what policy measure we could enact today to reduce the spread & mortality of COVID-19. His response: “A nationally mandated mask policy.” Take home: lets depoliticize the mask.

DC Mayor Bowser with a #ruthbaderginsburg mask on! Justice Ginsburg is yet again undergoing chemotherapy and is still working full time to protect our rights. At 87. Wear a mask for RBJ ❤️

Trump just said no one in his rallies has had a “negative effect”. I guess Herman Cain doesn’t matter. Dead men can’t speak.

Dr. Chaniece Wallace was a Pediatric Chief Resident at Indiana School of Medicine. She died in childbirth. In the US, maternal & infant mortality for Black Women & babies is ~3x that of non-Black women. Childbirth isn’t safe for Black Women in America. This is crushing.😞

It’s really so frustrating to wake up to news of another mass shooting. Still we’re expected to continue life as normal. Where can we go that is safe in America?
