-44% of ID programs didn't fill their slots -80% of US counties do not have a single ID specialist -ID compensation one of the lowest At what point does this become a crisis? #IDMatch #IDTwitter

After 3 years of heroic and lifesaving work by our nation’s infectious disease physicians, seeing several tweets from top-notch ID fellowship programs that didn’t fill their match speaks volumes about how screwed up our system of rewarding doctors is.

did you know? 10% of children drown while their parents are watching them. WATCHING them. What looks like jumping in the waves can quickly turn into the telltale bobbing or upright drowning position I experienced today. – at Malden, MA

Although long-acting CAB/RPV is FDA-approved only for PWH w/ viral suppression, this remarkable case series (new in @CIDJournal) shows it can work also in those with viremia -- where it could be a life-saving intervention. Clinical trials urgently needed. doi.org/10.1093/cid/ciac631

Kristin Bender from the @kidneytweets lab just gave a wonderful flash talk on her project studying the role of insulin resistance on infection susceptibility. Great job, Kristin! #UTICONF22

What a FANTASTIC way to start a conference! Great talk from @ImmunoBladder about immune responses and immune memory in the bladder😍. Thank you, Dr. Ingersoll! #UTICONF22 (And yes, she did show those pictures 😉)
Still on the fence about registering for #UTICONF22? What if we told you that our first of FIVE (5) #InvitedSpeaker sessions is all about UTI PATHOGENESIS AND SEVERITY? Or that our first keynote speaker & group leader is @ImmunoBladder aka the illustrious Dr. Molly Ingersoll? 🧵

It's happening! #UTICONF22
The @CDCgov (which I love) is blatantly misleading the public—CDC tells hospitals about aerosol risks of #monkeypox and need for N95 masks. Yet @CDCDirector deliberately downplays aerosols & masks in messages to the lay public. Shameful. HT @mdc_martinus stacks.cdc.gov/view/cdc/1178…

Important piece @Nature that requires attention & investment A wave of departures, many of them by mid-career scientists, calls attention to widespread discontent in universities. Has the ‘great resignation’ hit academia? nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

In 2022, asymptomatic bacteriuria is still over-treated! To help stewards reduce urine culturing and unnecessary treatment for ASB, I made this pilot list of common rebuttals with links to evidence. Would you use this? What would you add? sites.google.com/view/asphds… #idtwitter
