Most recents (10)

1. New county-level #risk indicators released by @CDCgov last night.

Here's your look at weekly #transmission levels since Feb 24.

After looking much better in March, we're continuing to see rates of newly reported cases increasing in most US regions.
2. But, as has been the case for a while, when basing risk level on #hospitalization rates and hospital capacity, at least visually, the story is very different.
3. This shows CHANGE in each metric yesterday compared to 1 week prior. Many more places worsening than improving.

14% of the population worsened on the hospital-based measure; only 1% improved.

23% of the population worsened on the transmission-based measure; only 6% improved.

Have a look at the recent surge in #Hospitalizations among children (< 18 years old age group; colored yellow)

BA.2 is the most dominant circulating lineage in #RhodeIsland
My hospital tracking tool didn't pick it up (data from HHS). Got to investigate this further.. that surge from @nytimes data chart looks unreal

A study applied Mendelian randomization including >3,000 blood proteins as exposures to identify potential biomarkers that may indicate risk for hospitalization or need for respiratory support or death due to #COVID19 found:
-Higher blood levels of 5 proteins associated with an increased risk of #hospitalization, need. of respiratory support or death due to #COVID19: GCNT4, CD207, RAB14, C1GALT1C1, & ABO.
-These findings implicate blood group markers & binding proteins in both #hospitalization, need for respiratory support & death.
-Higher levels of #endocannabinoid enzymes may increase the risk of #hospitalization.

Here's a simple guide on how you can effectively claim your health insurance👇

Part 1- Cashless claims.

A thread.🧵(1/10)
#Insurance companies have tie-ups with a number of hospitals to manage cashless claims, you might have heard them, cause insurers love to brag about them. (2/10)
They are called network hospitals and here, the hospital and the insurance company settle the claim amongst themselves, with little to no effort from your part. (3/10)

3rd Dose Of Vaccine:

🦠Why?

🦠2nd dose still protects against #hospitalization (92% Moderna, 85% Pfizer) and #death (100%)

🦠3rd dose is to protect against #infection

▪️Jan 2021: 86% Moderna, 76% Pfizer

▪️Jul 2021: 76% Moderna, 42% Pfizer

🦠Moderna has more mRNA than Pfizer Image
3rd Dose:

🦠Antibody levels decline over time

🦠Higher levels of antibody are associated with higher levels of vaccine efficacy

🦠Higher levels of antibody may be required to protect against the delta variant

🦠A booster mRNA immunization increases antibody titers by >10-fold Image
3rd Dose:

🦠Vaccine effectiveness against #infection (symptomatic & asymptomatic) is decreasing over time

🦠Vaccine effectiveness against #severe disease, #hospitalization, #death remains relatively high

🦠Antibodies going down, delta going up, add booster #before deaths go up Image

Sharing thread of my thoughts on #WorldSuicidePreventionDay #WSPD #suicidalthoughts_Medical_Emergency what I learnt as Psychiatrist during last 2 decades
1/n Before leaving for hospital, I made my first post on #WorldSuicidePreventionDay as I have strong belief and do practice that #suicidalthoughts_Medical_Emergency
2/n On reaching hospital, saw first patient in emergency who tries to harm herself due to hanging..somehow saved by family member. My first tweet of the day comes into my mind. Patient required admission. Decision was taken to admit for #SuicidePrevention..first step of treatment

Backgrounder on #COVID19 Hospitalization Data (thread)
Exante started to track #hospitalization data around the time of the #COVID19 outbreak in #Italy. Hospitalization data are not as skewed by fluctuations in amount of testing done. The challenge w/ hospitalization data is that countries & various US states report it differently.
Types of #hospitalization data: 1). *Cumulative hospitalizations*: All people who have ever been in hospital for #COVID19, including: those currently in hospital, those discharged, and those that died. From cumulative hospitalizations, one can calculate new hospitalizations.
