Congratulations @DrGezzer on his @NIMHD K23 award for "Improving outcomes for Spanish-speaking surgical patients with limited English proficiency." 1 in 12 people speak English "less than very well" resulting in delayed access, ↑ costs, & worse outcomes

Climate change has far reaching implications for global surgical equity. @RennieQin led this incredible effort to explore these concepts in the Western Pacific in a new @LancetRH_WPac piece. Keep your eyes peeled for more of this work from pgssc.org/coast <3

Great study. I wonder if the greater impact seen in smaller, non-academic hospitals reflects economies of scale in standardizing care with their bigger in-network partners?
