🏥 Should marijuana be treated like medicine? A growing body of research has raised important questions about state medical marijuana programs, including whether many approved conditions are supported by strong scientific evidence and whether current regulations adequately protect patients. Key questions include: 🔬 Are medical claims backed by rigorous clinical trials? 📋 Are products standardized, tested, and dosed like other medicines? ⚠️ Are patients fully informed about potential risks, including dependence, cognitive impairment, and mental health effects? 🏛️ Should medical cannabis programs be reassessed to better align with evidence-based medicine? As medical marijuana programs continue to expand, policymakers and healthcare professionals face an important challenge: ensuring patient care is guided by science, not marketing or politics.

AIIMS has evolved from being a single institution of excellence to becoming a national healthcare network. The real opportunity now is to ensure every AIIMS becomes a catalyst for: → Better patient outcomes → Stronger medical education → High-quality research → Regional healthcare equity Building hospitals is important. Building systems that consistently deliver quality care is transformational, @mygovindia #AIIMS #HealthcareTransformation #HealthPolicy #MedicalEducation #PublicHealth

Oommen C. Kurian ~ NFHS-6 भारत की स्वास्थ्य यात्रा की मिली-जुली तस्वीर पेश करता है। जहां कई क्षेत्रों में प्रगति जारी है, वहीं कुपोषण, घटता स्तनपान, बढ़ते सिजेरियन प्रसव और वयस्क पोषण से जुड़ी नई चिंताएं सामने आई हैं। अब उम्मीद इकाई-स्तरीय आंकड़ों से है, जो देश की स्वास्थ्य चुनौतियों को और स्पष्ट करेंगे। #NFHS6 #PublicHealth #Nutrition #MaternalHealth #IndiaHealth #Healthcare #HealthPolicy orfonline.org/hindi/expert-s…

NFHS-6 shows #India’s Social Determinants of Health (SDH) story: gains in nutrition, schooling, water, sanitation, electricity, clean fuel, financial inclusion and health coverage. But progress is uneven; quality and continuity now matter as much as coverage: @oommen or-f.org/39082 #Healthcare #HealthPolicy

Three decades after the PC&PNDT Act, the ban on sex selection remains necessary. But India must ask whether an ultrasound-centred law, designed for one technological moment, has become misaligned with modern medicine: K. S. Uplabdh Gopal or-f.org/39167 #PublicHealth #GenderJustice #HealthPolicy

Oommen C. Kurian ~ NFHS-6 के आंकड़े सिर्फ स्वास्थ्य की स्थिति नहीं बताते, बल्कि उसके पीछे मौजूद सामाजिक कारकों की भी तस्वीर पेश करते हैं। इस विश्लेषण में स्वास्थ्य के प्रमुख सामाजिक निर्धारकों के साथ उन पहलुओं को भी समझने की कोशिश की गई है, जिन्हें परखने के लिए अन्य आधिकारिक स्रोतों का सहारा लिया गया है। #NFHS6 #PublicHealth #HealthPolicy #IndiaHealth #SocialDeterminants #Healthcare orfonline.org/hindi/expert-s…

NFHS-6 gives reasons for optimism, not complacency. Stunting is down, immunisation is up, and institutional delivery is high. But breastfeeding has declined, C-sections have risen further, wasting persists, and adult malnutrition now cuts both ways: @oommen or-f.org/39082 #Healthcare #HealthPolicy
