I think an interesting question for pediatricians is: If #COVID19 was predominantly killing children with blonde hair, how adamant would you be that all kids attend in-person school in the fall? Be truthful… #putkids1st

Dear @TheAtlantic , I see that you’re having adult oncologists weigh in on pediatric Psychiatry and Infectious Disease. Couple quick questions: 1) have you heard of pediatric psychiatrists and/or pediatric ID specialists? because they exist 2) wtf is wrong with you? seriously.

I just saw a midwife talking about performing VBACs (vaginal birth after c-section) in a birthing center. OUTSIDE of a hospital. AWAY from physicians. Y’all, don’t do this. If your baby needs help, you have 60 sec to begin resuscitation. Being “close” to a hospital ain’t enough.

If a physician says it’s bad to inoculate children from a pandemic-causing virus, you might want to rethink listening to their advice on anything. Ever. In life. Yes, even if Wikipedia says they were the valedictorian of their high school class & made good boom-boom on the potty.

LRT: Y’all keep talking bout “everyone” being vaccinated this summer, leaving out roughly SEVENTY-FIVE MILLION CHILDREN in America. Those people can catch, spread, and die from covid-19. Quick science lesson: Kids are also people and ignoring their health needs is fairly gross.
