Well would you like at that?! Looks like advocacy works! When enough people speak out, the people can hold those in power accountable. Great work everyone! #CancelLevel2PE @jbcarmody @drharrislakers @NationalSOMA

📣ATTN📣 4th year #EMBound med students who have not been able to secure an audition rotation!
We have contacted all #EmergencyMedicine programs in the country to ask abt whether they have available spots. We will update this thread as we hear back!
Please RT to help a student!

Just my daily reminder to the @NBOME that DO 4th years dont even have places to rotate at and you are still making them fly to testing centers for a largely meaninless exam. This COVID response may ensure anyone with a choice in the future will never choose DO over MD schools.

Wise words from @amalmattu - lets change “social distancing” to “physical distancing” so we do not forget/distance our relationships during this emotionally draining time. We need our friends and families more than ever. #wellness #MedTwitter @ACOEPRSO

This Ebola strain kills approximately 62% of patients infected (confirmed cases). With vaccines, a very small percentage of those exposed were infected. Amazingly, all of them survived. Vaccines are important. Vaccines save lives.
