@STAT

Oh, hi STAT. I'm not a regular reader of your publication. Today, a news story from you showed up in my newsfeed. I clicked on it, started to read, and was soon presented with a "give us your email or else" prompt to be able to read the entire article.

Well...

This won't do. Not only did I not give you my email, but you are now banned from my newsfeed.

The last thing I need is more spam in my mailbox, from an organization I don't really care about.

So long, and thanks for nothing.

How a major hospital shows just how inflated hospital list prices are

“Total deductions, which mostly include those negotiated or mandated discounts, were more than $8.6 billion in that same quarter. That means more than 84% of Cedars-Sinai’s gross charges disappeared into the ether.”

"Logic and reason dictate that acute SARS-CoV-2 infection causes long Covid.

Or, more accurately, acute Covid-19 triggers ME/CFS in the same way many other infectious agents trigger ME/CFS.

'Triggers' means a temporal association, temporal association, but not 'cause' in a mechanistic sense — at least not identifiable with currently available scientific tools."

Interesting article on #measles and the increasing threat we will see over the next few years, on #StatNews, via #HelenBranswell.

Babies are most at risk, but there are now many pockets of adults who are susceptible to this incredibly contagious virus.

Great article from #statnews highlighting just how difficult it is to predict flu and the likelihood of significant human to human transmission, as #H5N1 continues to spread in mammals

Last month SHEA issued a recommendation that hospitals and other health care facilities stop routinely screening asymptomatic patients for Covid-19. Testing adds time, cost. One of the studies SHEA used was Shira Doron's, one of Wen's 2 cited experts in her original WaPo article.

The article notes that SHEA still hangs on to an outdated idea of how virus circulate in the air.

Wen did not mention SHEA in her article...

Avoid quick online access to medications -- or very personal medical info may be handed to places such as Facebook.
A joint investigation by #STAT and The Markup of 50 direct-to-consumer telehealth companies found that online access to medications often means sensitive medical information they collect is handed to the world’s largest advertising platforms.
Questions like Are you in danger of harming yourself or others? If not, what’s your current opioid and alcohol use?
