Mark Cuban launched an online pharmacy providing cancer, cardiac, GI, rheum drugs at a steep discount. Leukemia drug Imatinib (Gleevec) which usually retails at $9,657 is sold at $47. Perhaps the greatest disruption in US healthcare this decade.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ costplusdrugs.com Mark Cuban

In <12hrs of publication of this paper, news outlets are already posting sensationalistic headlines that screening colonoscopy benefits may have been overstated. This is going to haveโฌ†๏ธpublic health impact for lay readers. But pls keep this in mind: 1/2 nejm.org/doi/full/10.10โ€ฆ

You may have heard the shocking headline that 250,000 people die every year in the US due to misdiagnosis in the ER. You may be even more shocked to know that this statistic is extrapolated from the death of... just one man. in a Canadian ER. over a decade ago.
