If you’re against abortion, don’t have one. But let’s not pretend that we advocate for legal abortion as a convenient method of birth control…giving #women the #freedom to decide with their doctor what’s right for their own body is patriotic. Limiting it is cowardly – at Costa Mesa, CA

This piece on medical pricing and new transparency laws illustrates what we all know: this system is ridiculous. nytimes.com/interactive/2021…

Agree 100%. Nobody wears a mask for fun, we wear it for safety. Protecting those that can’t be vaccinated should be our shared goal. Get #vaccinated if you can, and think of those that can’t when you’re in public and considering not #maskingup – at Costa Mesa, CA
Replying to @VoiceofOC
Absolutely irresponsible of the BOE to sue against mask mandates in schools when community case numbers are rising, nationwide we are seeing more pediatric hospitalizations than before, and a huge group of kids are not eligible for vaccination.

It makes me sad, angry and disappointed to see such a terribly-placed sheet in the #ATLS handbook – at Orange, CA

If anyone had a right to question whether our democracy was worth redeeming, it was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Because in the face of billy clubs and lynchings, poll taxes and literacy tests, he never gave in to violence, never waved a traitorous flag or gave up on our country.

Next time you blame a doctor for your medical bills.... these are the checks we get from the insurance company. For 3 days of our services. This system is garbage.

It may look like #MASH, but it’s not nearly as funny. #WearAMask – at Costa Mesa, CA
UCI mobile hospital. Leadership, faculty, residents, support staff are all in on ensuring care for our community. Please do your part and wear a mask, social distance. #MaskUp #SocialDistance #staywell

We work hard to keep our emotions out of our decision-making and give patients hope and guidance. That doesn’t mean Docs, nurses and other healthcare team members don’t have emotions. Thanks for sharing, @Adamhill1212. Thanks for being a role model for us, take care of yourself – at Costa Mesa, CA
This is me. Immediately after a therapy session. Six weeks after I spent all day in a home taking care of a child at the end of their life. We don’t just walk off a shift. And into our homes. The tears of grief need a space to live too.

Wearing a mask isn't a political statement — it's a patriotic duty.

This is remarkable delivery. If it’s not on teleprompter, it’s some of the best broadcasting I’ve ever seen.

Wanna know what the president said last night but with much-needed context? My @NPR colleagues made 63 annotations and fact checks. And those drug price claims? Yeah...not so fast. Read the fact check. npr.org/2020/08/27/901381398…
