Currency contamination? Old studies suggested cocaine commonly contaminates paper currency. A couple weeks ago we took cash from wallets/purses of 5 attendings/fellows, rinsed the bills with methanol, and screened for presence of cocaine & methamphetamine.

We have to assume every flightβοΈ carries #COVID19 while pandemic still raging. 96% of flights positive for COVID in toilet wastewater is a lot. Assume in air too. Please #MaskUp unless you want to play Russian roulette with #LongCovid. #COVIDIsAirborne.

We had a great tour of β¦@PhoenixHerpβ© today! Learned so much about native and non-native venomous snakes not to mention crocodilians, non-venomous colubrids, tortoises and various other creatures. Thank you to Cale and the amazing staff for a wonderful experience.
