That should be #mealioidosis. #rheumsky, for #HCWvsHunger this year, let’s join with the ID team in recognition of our shared love for vaccinations! Also our frequent collaboration on those “is it a lupus flare or infection?” consults.
Hey #rheumsky, last year I folded #HCWvsHunger team 'NoRheumforHunger' into the Derm + Renal Team, UrineitToWinIt, but they are MIA this year. What say we join team #meal-ioidosis the Infectious Disease team who welcomes all who believe in vaccinations. Lord knows we rheumatologists ❤️💉! Thoughts?
Before you sit down for turkey, register your team name at HCWvsHunger.org & rally your troops because #HCWvsHunger 2025 starts tonight!
