Surgery is a necessity. Yet, it is often unavailable in low- and middle-income countries. There was a time when basic surgical care wasn’t available in southeast Liberia. Learn how PIH Liberia is changing that:bit.ly/3FCLgB5

I am heartbroken. My condolences to family and friends. Paul Farmer was a titan of global health, a relentless advocate for the poor, and a wonderful friend and mentor. An immeasurable loss for the world. @PIH

I’ve been talking to Jordan Henderson, on and off, for the last three months or so. We talked a lot about captaincy and responsibility, but also about the Super League and player welfare and equality and the NHS and abuse. He has a lot to say. nyti.ms/3wsfhgu

Recent SMV and SMA/RP dissection completed by a #MoffittCGSO fellow with me as the bovie monkey. I think he/she is ready to leave the dojo. What do you think? #SurgEd @SeanP_Dineen @NirajGusani @SyedAAhmad5 @drsuswarner @FlavioRochaMD @NZyromski @TheNotoriousHPB @sepideh_gholami

(1/3) The sudden passing of Dean John M. Daly, '73, MD, FACS, is shocking and heartbreaking for our LKSOM community. Dr. Daly's remarkable career as our dean, a master surgeon, educator, and leader has had a profound impact on all of us. We are all deeply saddened by his loss.

In many regions, it’s much more difficult to schedule an appointment if you don't have access to the internet. One state is even flat-out refusing to allow undocumented workers with high-risk jobs to get prioritized for vaccination. propub.li/38pVaWW
