Once upon a time, we didn’t have MRIs, we didn’t have electronic medical records, we didn’t have dermatoscopes. Medicine is always evolving with new tools. AI algorithms are tools that can help us - we have to figure out which ones are actually helpful and adapt to using them.

I won’t poo poo any optimistic sign when the hospital is so full of sick people.

What did I say last Friday about the Boston area peaking? The wastewater data are in, and the news is good. @MWRA_update and @BiobotAnalytics providing solid evidence, that importantly *can't* be put down to exhausted testing capacity or other factors 1/n

An insightful piece. We should always be asking the “Hamming question—‘what are the most important problems in your field, and why aren’t you working on them?’” Researchers and Founders blog.samaltman.com/researche…

The @surginformatics lab at @BIDMCSurgery has been busy. Excited to be presenting projects at @AmCollSurgeons #ACSCC21 and more at #QualitySafety21 on safe post-surgical opioid prescribing, surgical consent, and other topics!

To beat COVID-19, we need to collaborate across borders, languages, and different coding systems. Our 4CE consortium of (now) 7 countries just published 1st efforts. Inspiring that >100 scientists/clinicians worked so hard with good will and trust.

For all those who thought preventing the spread of #COVID19 wasn't a good enough reason to wear a mask, maybe this will do the trick.

This is the kind of humanity that supported us during the surge and what we need now. There isn’t a great distance between those who lost their livelihoods and those fighting for their rights. They are all fighting for dignity and they are all our neighbors.

So this is a basic tactical caring kit (some stuff changes depending on what we have but pretty much it). Socks are key. proteins. Dental care. Feminine hygiene. body wipes. Lotion. Pen/pad. Lip balm. rolled up tarp. Snacks. Deodorant. Fits in a 2 gallon ziplock bag. Then repeat

What is possible when dozens of incredible global researchers sprint for 2 weeks to share aggregate data on nearly 28,000 #COVID19 patients. Visualizations @ covidclinical.net. Not perfect, but we're just getting started.

Great by @zakkohane and colleagues: Consortium for Clinical Characterization of COVID-19 by EHR (4CE). Harmonized data sets analyzed locally and shared as aggregate data for rapid analysis and visualization. Great teamwork. Like @OHDSI. @medrxivpreprint medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

We present sparse lit around some major questions we are asking in our hospitals.
Some take-aways for COVID19 surgery:
1. Team safety requires team communication.
2. Treat the OR as contaminated.
3. Surgery makes aerosols so wear N95. 2/

4. Cautery, laparoscopy, high-speed tools make aerosols. Smoke evacuation may help. Open v lap not clear choice.
5. Watch each other don/doff.
6. More questions than answers.
Great team: Hersey, @krchhabra @AlokGuptaMD @DrJohnScott 3/END
