New IDEAS pub alert! barbara jones explores the use of empirical anti-MRSA in hospitalized Veterans with pneumonia. Out in JAMA Internal Medicine today

We found no mortality benefit of empiric anti-MRSA therapy over standard #antibiotics for #pneumonia, even those with risk factors for #MRSA ja.ma/2SxruPY

Next Thursday, join us to learn about parallel programming and writing efficient #rstats code with Andrew Redd! meetup.com/slc-rug/events…

Attempting my first ever re-tweet! Thanks IDEAS Center Matthew Samore @Vanessa_S91 Makoto Jones Rich Nelson Brian Sauer VA HSR for about a year of hallway conversations and deliberations that went into this analysis.
