I had the best time catching up with my former student @kpoho at #AAI2024. The best part of this career is seeing former trainees excel and I couldn’t be more proud of Katie.

"Almost 700 children have died from #COVID19, placing #SARSCoV2 infection among the top 10 causes of death in US children. No children have died from vaccination."

Listen to @CHPBugDoc, one of the smartest #pedsID docs I know (and all around great guy)!
As I tweet this I am attending yet another session on covid-19 in children at #ACR21, because covid-19 affects children and the results can be devastating. Get your kids vaccinated!
"I would say that the most important reason not to wait is kids are dying from COVID right now in the U.S.," said UPMC's Dr. Andrew Nowalk. "We've actually had more pediatric deaths in the last couple of months than at any other time during this epidemic." goodmorningamerica.com/welln…

Dr. Yukiko Kimura presented this important study showing improved outcomes for polyJIA patients at 24 months when DMARDs are combined with biologic therapies early in treatment vs step up therapy (adding biologics to DMARDs after 3 months). #ACR21 #pedsrheum

Q&A discussion revealed that insurance coverage was at least one factor that affected which treatment plan physicians chose. Can't wait to cite this study the next time I argue with a patient's insurance company. #ACR21
