Can’t speak for the other waste but can speak for my students!
There’s so much waste in the OR it’s scary: syringes, drapes, disposables, a med student’s time when you don’t involve them.

Happy #PrideMonth! 53 years ago, Black and Brown trans women fought at the doors of the Stonewall Inn to dismantle systems of oppression and hatred. This month, we honor their movement and legacy. To LGBTQ+ Illinoisans, your state stands with you today, tomorrow, and every day.🏳️‍🌈
