Prescriptions for health and happiness
In addition to all the fear and chaos it has wreaked, COVID-19 has changed the way we think about our health. Thanks to the psychological, and even the physical, impacts of protracted quarantines and shutdowns, many of us have come to realize that feeling healthy is more than the absence of disease. We feel our healthiest when experiencing positive emotions, when feeling calm and at peace, when connecting with others, and when taking in beauty with a sense of wonder.

Update: Caring for COVID-19 Patients in the Hospital
Severe cases of COVID-19 infections continue to necessitate hospitalization more than two and a half years after the pandemic first hit.

Confidence in Science Fell in 2022 —Especially Along Political Lines
Confidence in the scientific community declined among U.S. adults in 2022, a major survey shows, driven by a partisan divide in views of both science and medicine that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Overall, 39% of U.S. adults said they had “a great deal of confidence” in the scientific community, down from 48% in 2018 and 2021. That’s according to the General Social Survey, a long-running poll conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago that has monitored Americans’ opinions on key topics since 1972.

It ’ s time for a change
Much has been written about the challenges frontline health care workers have faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Long hours, excessive death, and fear for one’s own safety and the welfare of family and colleagues have been a consistent theme over the past 22 months. Physicians and nurses started as heroes, but due to strained politics and social-media misuse, they’re now branded by a substantial swath of society as pariahs and purveyors of a medical hoax. The timing of this pandemic could not have been worse: According to the Medscape National Physician Burnout & Suicide Report 2021, 79% of physicians stated their...

Ann Fam Med. 2022 Apr 20. doi: 10.1370/afm.2816.
