Heart shatteringly sad. These kids were looking forward to summer camps, pools, vacations. Tragedy doesn’t even come close to describe it. REMEMBER this when you go to the polls this year. Do you want politicians who push #firearmsafety measures, or the opposite? #Midterms2022

So thankful for the most amazing mentor an aspiring doctor could ask for. Thank you @chorphm for everything you have taught me! I hope that one day I can be half as compassionate of physician/person as you. Thank you for everything! #VCUSOM #Classof2022

This is so cool! Stay tuned for @HannahHollon @drelizabethwolf and I’s research at #PAS2022 about helping kids stay #InjuryFree2022 which builds directly off of great research like this, and how trainees can help start the normalization of these conversations in our training!
A study @CincyChildrens by @BKetabchi found that pediatricians agree it's the responsibility of the PCP to discuss firearm safety, but counseling occurs infrequently in the primary care setting due to a lack of time, education and resources.@InjuryFreeKids #InjuryFree2022

A study looking at nearly two decades of data shows firearm-related injuries have surpassed motor vehicle collisions as the leading cause of death for U.S. youth ages 0-19 years, while also showing firearm violence disproportionately affects Black youth publications.aap.org/aapnews…

THEY DID IT! With today's bipartisan passage of a bill banning untraceable ghost guns, the Virginia Senate continues to lead on gun safety. @MomsDemand and @StudentsDemand are grateful for @AdamEbbin's leadership and hope the House will follow suit. #vagov x.com/JustCallMeFoxy/status/…

WATCH: Today is the #SuperBowl, and @RamsNFL star @AaronDonald97 is committed to raising awareness about unintentional shootings by children and encouraging gun owners to #BeSMART by securely storing firearms—locked, unloaded, and separate from ammunition.

Great to see an amazing program I interviewed at championing firearm injury prevention efforts! @LuriePedsRes @LurieChildrens 💯👍🏼⛑🦺
I’ve never identified with something more in my life
when the med student going into pediatrics rotates through radiology
A secured firearm is a safe firearm! #BeSMART and make sure those around you are making the right choice! #SaferStorage @VAPediatricians #StagedandSecured
