So grateful to close out the year for “What to Know” @UTSWNews talking about #lifestylemedicine and healthy habits
Research shows that healthy lifestyle changes can reduce and even reverse the effects of chronic illness, such as #diabetes and #heartdisease. @JaclynAlbin, M.D., and @BAgusalaMD discuss. bit.ly/3qUqiGD

I see this so often in primary care. Sometimes people were just waiting to see me first to get my blessing.
"If they haven't been vaccinated by now, they never will be." I hear this often (& have thought it myself). But it's NOT TRUE. People are scared. They hear all kinds of conflicting (& scary) information. They want what is best for themselves & their families. KEEP TRYING.

Thoughts from work meeting today - how do we collectively prioritize #covid19 treatments when supply is limited? No agreed upon hierarchy here for high risk so it’s just first come, first serve

Also do our nurses need to call all the pharmacies on the list to see who has #Paxlovid and #Molnupiravir? Wish there was a central database with inventory

As medical knowledge grows, we must reform medical education to focus on underlying concepts and principles. Please check out my thoughts in the Journal of Medical Education and Curricular Development. journals.sagepub.com/doi/ful… #MedEd #medtwitter

Fantastic talk by @askdrfatima for #HarvardLifestyleMedicine I love the way she pulled it all together at the end with very illustrative cases. I learned so much!

💉So grateful to get my first COVID vaccine today!💉 This represents the first step on the road to a post-COVID world. We still have a dark tunnel ahead though and must remain vigilant with 😷, social distance and hand hygiene. @UTSWNews

Dear Black & Brown people: I know about the poor treatment that our ancestors have received by the health care system. I lecture about it to Med students. I also know the science about the #COVID vaccine. I do this for me, my family, & you. #BlackMenInMedicine #RightToBareArms
