America needs to invest in proactive patient outreach now
The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced multiple new threats for physical and mental health. The novel coronavirus itself continues to infect more than 30,000 Americans as we enter the influenza season. The pandemic, economic devastation, and racial reckoning have led to a tripling of emotional distress.

Will the CDC ever rise again?
I hate to say this, but I fear it is over. For our entire relationship, I have looked to the CDC to guide and educate me. I have put my faith in their recommendations. I have defended their stances on everything from obesity to Lyme disease to influenza across decades. I have done so because […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

The flu shot is more important this year than ever
In the midst of a COVID-19 pandemic, getting a flu shot has never been more important. Many people are staying indoors, wearing a mask, and washing their hands frequently. In this environment, patients ask me, “With all this social distancing, do I really need a flu shot this year?” The answer is unequivocally, “Yes!” Even […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

Why spiritual health is so important for medical students
A tale of two pandemics: Around the time of the coronavirus outbreak, 2019 also marked a full century since the death of Sir William Osler, who revolutionized medical training. Despite some lingering debate over whether Dr. Osler ’s pneumonia-related death should be counted among the 50 million lost to the 1918 influenza pandemic, his notes suggest […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

A public health update on COVID-19 PODCAST
“Over the last 100 years, the U.S. has had to respond to five avian flu pandemics. The most severe was the 1918 avian influenza infecting 1/3 of the world ’s population and killing 650,000 Americans.

What ’s in a disease name, anyway? Everything.
Spanish Flu. Japanese Encephalitis. Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome. West Nile Virus. Wuhan Virus (and lately, the “Chinese Virus” as many have begun calling the pathogen that causes COVID-19: SARS-CoV-2). What do these names all have in common, you might ask?

Do viruses infect bones?
Viruses typically invade our bodies through an opening. Think gastrointestinal flu, COVID-19, AIDS. Our bones, however, are normally protected from any outside exposure, so they should be safe, right? The short answer is yes and no. Of course, knowledge is power, and we need both right now, so here is a nuanced answer. Patients with smallpox frequently […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

Should fourth-year medical students graduate early?
Graduating medical students early is not a completely novel concept. During WWII, there was a significant physician shortage, and various medical schools initiated a 3-year accelerated MD program to produce more physicians. These programs were eventually discontinued in the late 1970s and early 1980s. In 1918, the influenza pandemic created a similar situation. Third- and […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

How the lack of coronavirus testing impacts primary care
My first possible COVID-19 case came nearly three weeks ago, before there were any cases in our city. He was a healthcare professional who presented with fever, sore throat, and cough. We did the usual strep and influenza testing, both negative, but I thought that he looked different. He had some diarrhea, stomach pain, and […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

Immunity passports: How to eventually climb out of the COVID-19 pandemic
During the influenza epidemic of 1918-1920, my great-grandfather, Ralph Norton Mitchell, was in the military. He helped stack the corpses of those who had died from the infection. I shudder to think about what type of personal protective equipment he used. However, his survival reminds me of a feature of all epidemics–some individuals have or […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com. Search thousands of physician, PA, NP, and CRNA jobs now. Learn more.

If social distancing isn ’t hard for you, you’re doing it wrong
I am not a germaphobe. I have never wiped a grocery cart handle before now. I don ’t wear a mask during flu season in my office.

Is centralized quarantine in our near future?
I want to make this simple so that politicians can understand. Our country will never survive this pandemic without centralized quarantine and widespread testing.
