This gentle man is Sir William Osler.. He has frequently been described as the “Father of Modern Medicine” and one of the "greatest diagnosticians ever to wield a stethoscope". What did he hv to say about #India ? @sanjeevsanyal @vipintukur @naveenthacker @EricTopol @mvankerkhove Image
His fascination for #India, The land of #Vishnu had no bounds..!! At each & every intellectual commentary he mentions about his interest in the values #India was known for @ProfSomashekhar @iapindia @IndianMedicalAs @MoHFW_INDIA @VirusesImmunity Image
In one of his essays; “Of India, of "Vishnu-land," what can one say in a few minutes? To the Hindoos we owe a debt which we can at any rate acknowledge; and even in medicine, many of our traditions and practices may be traced to them”. @drharshvardhan @PMOIndia @BharadwajSpeaks Image

Read this ... 👇🏾
🧵 *** The researchers found no evidence of a difference in response in biochemical markers of #inflammation between patients with #MIS-C/PIMS-TS who were treated with #IVIG, #steroids, or #biologics, compared with those who were not.
*** Despite a lack of evidence, 🇬🇧 and 🇺🇸 treatment guidelines for MIS-C/PIMS-TS have become very similar.

*** By the end of the study period, most patients had received immunomodulation.
