The Day the Electronic Medical Records System Went Down Wonderful essay! "We spent more time talking to our patients, listening to their complaints. We talked to the nurses in person listened to their perspective on how our patients were doing" jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai…

ā€œThe process used to change the definition of Alzheimer's disease serves as an exemplar of the insidious nature of how industry, including pharmaceutical and diagnostics corporations, influences how diseases are redefined.ā€agsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jg…

So strange to live in an era when explaining "age is NOT a disease" is still needed. Knowing "age itself" was considered for ICD-11 feels like a flashback to the Middle Ages, doesn’t it? #ageism Great editorial for these strange times The Lancet Healthy Longevity doi.org/10.1016/S2666-…
