This is a very limited list. There are so many great pedsky accounts.

I love the feeds feature to discover new people. Use a medsky.social handle and add a label to your bio. Pin fav feeds. Use labels to help others find you and change to medsky.social handle if you’re in a medical field. #Pedsky

Thanks for the shout out! I feel stretched out with all the socials. My personal FB page (@ questforhealthkc) doesn’t have many followers but my office page that I admin (@ pediatricpartnersopks) does. I love the others you suggested too!

This is so disgusting. Most who follow him won’t even understand why this is so awful.

I’ve always suspected the infection would have higher risk, so this is interesting.

It would have been great if others followed the brave one out towards the end of this clip.

Not really isn’t the best answer to that question. The answer is no. Just no.

Kristen Stuppy, MD, FAAP @pediatricskc.medsky.social · 4d

It’s as if they don’t know what they’re doing.

Kristen Stuppy, MD, FAAP @pediatricskc.medsky.social · 4d

They don’t know how to evaluate risks and benefits to health and don’t look at evidence.

Or

They want to kill us.

Those are the options.

Deepfake Doctors: How AI Spreads Medical Disinformation

AI-generated doctors, some fabricated and some mimicking well-known physicians, sell sketchy products and bad medical advice on social media. Here’s how it works.

Very professional presentation. So glad we have the best in charge of our country. (Sarcasm if you can’t tell.)

How did we get here?

*don’t, not fully.

I don’t know how autocorrect made that connection.

The resistance to vaccines is already increasing. We don’t need this horrible messaging.

Stay in your lane DJT! I fully know what that is, but it’s not medicine.

I’m from the US but of all the shows my kids watched, some of the best were from Australia. The Wiggles, Mortified, H2O and more were great shows!

Sadly I’ve had medically educated parents believe their child’s problems are due to MTHFR mutations. There’s a lot of misinformation that people believe, even when they should know better. They want to believe it so it’s hard to talk them out of it. Feelings trump facts every time.

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right.

Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

Mask for health safety: bad

Mask to hide identity when doing something questionable: good

Got it.

We’re in the bad place, aren’t we?

Yes. Yes we do. At least half of us do.

It is so sad to consider that nearly every child has had multiple infections now. Future studies will have to use historical images for controls. We’re all living in an experiment at this point.
