Executives @LillyPad may be raging about losing market cap due to Twitter prank. But how about losing your life because you, like 1.3 million other diabetic Americans are forced to ration insulin? Our research in @AnnalsofIM acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M2…

UPDATE—Just learned that Eli Lilly executives are raging and furious at losing $20 billion in market cap from this stunt with @TwitterBlue. It’s too bad they don’t see their own damn insulin price gouging as the actual problem. Karma @LillyPad, karma.

Hard to overstate how disastrous a second Trump administration could be for health & healthcare. His first administration was hobbled by clownish disarray and incompetence, limiting impacts. A second administration will be far more prepared and “effective” - with grave results.


New research, led by Harvard General Medicine Fellow @emily_lupez , from @LabCambridge

In this study representing 1.4 million+ people in US prisons, there was high, and possibly increasing, prevalence of mental health and chronic physical conditions, as well as poor access to care. Co-payments were associated with worse access. ja.ma/3WBcVeh
