Tampa General is the primary teaching hospital for @USFHealthMed, the #1 ranked medical school in the @donoharm Medical School Excellence Index.
Remarkable things happen when health systems center rigor and merit!
NEW: Tampa General says its Palantir-powered sepsis detection system has cut sepsis mortality by more than 50% since 2022
The AI continuously monitors vitals, labs, medications, and notes to detect sepsis earlier
Result: 68% fewer 48-hr deaths and ~900 lives saved
Translation from wokespeak: Doctors must take sociology courses steeped in critical theory so that they are conditionred to see their patients as avatars of racial/religious/sexual minority groups. With enough magical thinking, patients will receive better treatment as a result.
Thank you to @LiveScience@LiveSciHealth for giving me a chance to share my story on why the LCME's removal of structural competency from medical school curriculum will have a harmful impact not just on medical education, but our patients as well.

1/ Imagine believing medical schools aren't discriminating by race. You'd have to accept a lot of wild coincidences. Buckle up for the world's most impressive string of statistical miracles.
7/ If none of this is discrimination, then we're living through the most extraordinarily lucky alignment of applicant quality, admissions "innovation," and colorblind outcomes in human history. A statistical fairy tale for the ages.
The date is June 5, 2026, and Uche Blackstock is still credulously citing the debunked Greenwood et al. study on infant mortality to plug racial concordance.

Some people claim that black doctors are better equipped to serve black patients.
But does that claim really hold up?
Check out @PeerReReview's response and find the report in the comments. 🔥
We (@donoharm) requested post-SFFA admissions data from every public U.S. medical school. Of the 23 that responded, 13 showed higher MCAT scores for rejected Asian or white applicants than for accepted black applicants.

Today, the @CivilRights Division added 15 medical schools to its investigations into potential race discrimination in admissions. @TheJusticeDept is laser-focused on ensuring that merit—not race—determines who will join America’s next generation of doctors.

It’s fair to assume that schools concealing their data discriminated, on average, as badly as (if not more extensively than) those that responded.
Racial discrimination in med schools remains significant and pervasive. This is a long overdue reckoning.
Scott Pelley was the plenary speaker at a conference where speakers (after completing a “land acknowledgment”) blatantly encouraged medical schools to racially discriminate in admissions processes—or, as one speaker put it, get students with the “right” skin color to apply.
Scott Pelley represents the worst strain of journalism. He doesn't report reality so much as deliver what he wishes were true, or what he calculates his audience wants to hear. I happened to write about a revealing encounter in a piece for @CityJournal.

Summary: Conservatives are evil and stupid. Surely their mistrust has nothing to do with our insistence that there are 72 genders or that it's ok to burn cities for racial justice during COVID but not ok to attend grandma's funeral.

There is chutzpah and then there is this. The very idea that training programs would totally disrupt their schedules and workforce just to express their bias against minorities after they went to all the trouble to recruit them is beyond absurd, The chickens have come home to roost.
My favorite brand of woke struggle session is the one where the wokes observe some inevitable consequence of a racist system they design and then blame everyone but themselves for the outcome.
Lower standards for admission=worse results, folks
