I've seen this report multiple times on my feed today so wanted to comment.

This is interesting (& promising) work but the report (biospace.com/article/resear…) VASTLY overstates the research findings.

#SIDS is awful, but we need to be careful with messaging here

A brief 🧵
1/x I cared for a few babies in residency who died of SIDS - they were the most awful experiences I've had in medicine (& I'm a peds oncologist, so that says something)

Lots of discussion the past few days set off by the @WSJopinion piece about the role of social justice in medicine.

A brief thread for those who missed it or want a refresher:

1/x Things started with an attention-grabbing op-ed with an even more cringe-worthy title, arguing that climate change, population health, and other similar areas of study have no place in medical school: wsj.com/articles/take-…
