I'm giving a keynote on gender bias in medicine.

I want to tell 30 stories. What's yours?

Give me a personal anecdote to share.

Stand up and be seen. It will make the world a better place.

Thank you. 🙏🏻

Amazing and overwhelming responses - thank you! Especially appreciate hearing stories of bias from both men and women, and the complexities of age, physical appearance, race, etc factoring in as well. Please keep sharing.

Time to resume elective surgery cases? A thread summarizing new guidance out today from the @AmCollSurgeons #COVID19

This document intro states that peak COVID rates have already been reached, or will be within a few weeks, depending on region...

[link at end of thread]
They offer four categories, each with specific issues that must be addressed locally before elective surgery may be safely resumed.

Categories:
1. COVID-19 Awareness
2. Preparedness
3. Patient Issues
4. Delivery of Safe High-Quality Care
For the 'awareness' category, the specific issues are:
✅Knowing your local COVID-19 numbers, including prevalence and incidence
✅Knowing local isolation mandates
✅Knowing your diagnostic testing availability
✅Knowing testing policies for pts and HCWs

Mixed messages on personal masks, simplified (a #COVID19 thread):

Personal masks level up #socialdistancing.

When we absolutely can't #StayHome, my mask protects you a bit, and your mask protects me a bit.

As @Surgeon_General says, it's not a substitution. It's a boost.
A personal mask is not the same as a medical mask, and they have different purposes.

True, a bandana or cloth mask won't filter out airborne particles. Unless you are a healthcare professional taking care of someone with #COVID19, you probably don't need that.
A regular medical/surgical mask is designed to protect the environment from the person wearing it.

It's to protect your wounds and surgical incisions from the nurses and doctors caring for you. It helps them keep their droplets to themselves.

If you're sick, same idea.

#TWEETORIAL: What does it mean to be a social media 'influencer'? It's more than a popularity contest. Here are 4 ways to slice the data, using #ATS2019 @symplur analytics

1⃣Here's a list of top influencers across all categories by the proprietary Symplur Rank.
Here's the same list, but limited to doctors tweeting #ATS2019 - which is why it's important for your bio to identify you as a professional if you want to be counted within your #hcsm community
Rank is based on multiple factors, including:
1. Relevance to the hashtag - higher scores go to ATS orgs and docs who are active in the ATS community all the time (not just during #ATS2019).
2. Accounts with many followers, but not just any followers...
