🧵This is a VERY brief thread about #HCWvsHunger tonight because this week has been out of control, & I still have to pack to fly to Texas for #SABCS22 on 12/5, which is TOMORROW! A longer thread will follow because I know everyone comes to Twitter for long form, lol.

The last few months worried me. The economy. The numerically & emotionally depleted #MedTwitter colleagues. The very fate of this platform, which has big problems, & also has been an undeniable source of reliable info to the public during this #pandemic & community for us all.
When I thought about the work involved in doing #HCWvsHunger for a 3rd time, those things were all top of mind. Feeding hungry people is vital. It's unconscionable that some of us have full bellies while others starve when WE HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THAT, #MedTwitter. /3
Learned so much in this evening's @AACI_Cancer@ webinar on physician use of social media! Dr. @fumikochino highlighted sev successful research collaborations that began via #SoMe & said that Twitter has helped a lot with the "hustle" all #MedTwitter junior faculty face. 
Dr. @SyedAAhmad5, who began tweeting during the #pandemic, highlighted opportunities to expand reach of #MedEd via #SoMe. For example, he taught this to #MedStudentTwitter, then realized there was no reason the learning needed to be confined to his operating room. cc @AACI_Cancer
Drs. @Jasosamd, @fumikochino, & @SyedAAhmad5 provided examples of using #SoMe to inform #MedTwitter, #SurgTwitter, & the pt #advocacy community about one's own research, as well as to promote the work of colleagues, esp mentees.

People are living in crisis from hunger 🚨 @USDA est that 30 mil in USA (includ 12 mil children) are experiencing food insecurity.
Many Americans are just a job loss, missed paycheck, or 🏥 medical emergency away from experiencing hunger.

Food insecurity (FI) is lack of *consistent & socially acceptable* access to enough safe food for an active, healthy life. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated FI for so many.

Why should FI matter to #NephTwitter? It’s a social determinant of health w/ *major* implications 👉 poorer overall levels of health, chronic med conditions, & lower levels of psychosocial/physical functioning.

A #HCWforVaccines thread about the power of #gratitude & action. So, 2 days ago, my #HCWvsHunger co-captain & muse tweeted this out of the blue, tagging me. 👇 1/X
And I immediately texted her that she needed to give me a heads up because:
1) I can’t say no to this
2) I can’t say no to @acweyand
3) Last time we did this (#HCWvsHunger, Team #FeedalizumabGiveocin), I didn’t shower or even sleep almost at all for 4d.
But also… 2/X

This was coming at a really bad time because in the last week:
1) My out of warranty iMac on which I depend had just permanently died.
2) My car on which I depend had just permanently died (& p.s. it’s impossible to find a 🚗 now: bit.ly/3DlS5oD).
