Moving to BlueSky where I am confident there will be more information integrity, community trust, and less propaganda. bsky.app/profile/timhong.bsk…

Proud of @NAEMSP for taking action help to protect LGB and especially transgender patients and community members.
We have recently seen a wave of discriminatory legislation aimed at LGBTQ communities in America. In light of this worrying trend, NAEMSP has worked with our partner Prodigy to make @TimHongMD's 2023 Annual Meeting presentation available for free with CME: link.prodigyems.com/LGBTQ

It did not go unnoticed how many female EMS fellows are here at #GatheringEagles22. Love seeing the representation and the progress that this subspecialty is making! #FemInEMS @PEMEMS @GradyMED1 @DrHeidiAbraham @CourtneyShayMD @AndraMF

One of the joys of #GatheringEagles22 & previous conferences is getting to meet #EMSFellows, the future of our subspecialty. 81 fellows matched to 70 program in 2021. I don't know the male-female breakdown, but certainly @TimHongMD is outnumbered here! What a great looking group!

Say it louder for the people in the back: equity in #EMS matters and gathering data is crucial. @BenWWeston shares how the Milwaukee system approached this #GatheringEagles22 @EaglesGather

#SFDPH is preparing for extreme heat and wildfire smoke, looking for community based orgs to participate in creating strategies to protect the most vulnerable populations in the city. PAID participation. Anyone know of appropriate CBO’s around? #disasterpreparedness #HealthEquity

Under Crisis Standards of Care, EMS is directed to only transport the most severe cases. The criteria for not transporting patients under the age of 60 is below.

The Chief Medical Officer at CDPHE reactivated Crisis Standards of Care for Emergency Medical Services (EMS). With many EMS staff out ill and with high demands for patient transports, guidance to the EMS providers on how to best use their services is needed at this time.

This is a brave stance by Steve Simon and the WTA where we put principle above $ and stand up for women everywhere and particularly for Peng Shuai.
Now - what say you, @IOC ?!? #IOC - so far I can barely hear you!!!

"With the full support of the WTA Board of Directors, I am announcing the immediate suspension of all WTA tournaments in China, including Hong Kong."

What to do now?
1) If not vaxxed, get vaxxed
2) If not boosted & >4-5 mths out, get boosted
3) Get prepared mentally to act more cautiously if Omicron proves to be more infectious, immune-evasive, or both
4) Follow the news & science – will be much clearer in 2-3 wks
5) That's it
