Dealing with dying patients.

#MedTwitter

A 🧵

How to get #verified.

A thread/
I am not an expert by any means.

But it took me 4 tries.

Each time I adjusted something that I think got me closer.

I thought I would share a few insights about how I think I got #verified so you can also.

2/
Why?

The power of this platform is undeniable.

Now more than ever, the voices of our collective expert medical community needs amplification.

Too many out there remain #notverified who should be.

⬆️ @verified science/medical experts = defeat misinformation

I am giving a talk on "SARS-CoV-2 testing and Immunity" this week. Thought it would make a good #Tweetorial.

Thread/
First testing.

You can categorize testing as follows:

✅Pathogen based (test for presence of virus)

✅Host based (test for patient's response)
There have been a LOT of Emergency Use Authorizations granted by the FDA. For a variety of tests.

I just saw this thread by @MarkHoofnagle and feel compelled to respond to clarify some things.

Disclaimers: I am not an ID expert. I am a Medical Intensivist in the Military. These are not the official views of the DoD. Just my personal opinions. No financial COIs.

1/
I have participated only as a site-AI but I have participated in investigator meetings since the inception of this trial so I have *some* inside knowledge.

2/
First off, this trial was conceived and protocol approved before our very first US case back in February. It is funded by NIAID. Not Gilead. Remdesivir was chosen because of its potential. Not financially motivated.

Full info here. 👇

Dear Healthcare Leader (at every level),

The longer this drags on, the tougher it is going to get and the more people will need you.

People have asked, what can I do to maintain morale through this difficult time?

1/
You know what every great commanding general does in the midst of battle to help boost morale?

They show up.

On the front line.

Despite the danger, bullets flying, etc.

2/
Take a page out of the military leadership playbook.

Show up to the COVID units.

Show that you are willing to face the same dangers that everyone else is facing daily.
