Cows are being hit the hardest now. If it continues on unchecked it could result in a massive decrease in milk supply (~20%).
There's been about 50 humans cases in the US with less than 5 that are unclear in origin and so are concerning for human to human transmission.
It seems to be a run of the mill flu for most people with an absolutely terrible conjunctivitis. Interesting that it would affect pregnant women so much more drastically.

Isn't the US leading the world in AI? How else will the world access chatbots that make confidently make shit up?
So the only people going to the Dunkin's in the office building are office workers. If we don't go back, that Dunkin's could go out of business. Is that something we can really allow on our collective conscience?
constantly comparing themselves to empires.
Good thing empires never fall, right?
Many if not most men are like this. It's usually their wives or another woman in their lives that drags them in when something is about to fall off. It's another way in which husbands leave 71% of a household’s ‘mental load’ on their wives, down to their own well being.
From personal experience, the vast majority are practicing out of scope. It would cost them a ton of money in overhead to have a cardiologist deny a claim for cardiology related testing or treatment so they just wing it. In some cases it's not even a physician, it's a nurse, NP or PA.
This is where government needs to step and regulate but we all know that isn't going to happen.

Hey at least it's interesting to watch an empire crumble, right? Right?
Business interests in hospitals certainly have a role to play but that is in part an extension of the for profit health insurance system in America. Hospitals have hired legions of middle men dedicated to obtaining adequate reimbursement for services provided while insurance companies have legions of people working to deny claims. Doctors and nurses are often left with completely inadequate resources and staffing and patients suffer as a result.
China is already ahead on EV production and adoption.
The US has space and AI and the latter hasn't produced anything meaningful, besides accelerating enshittification.
A long term care bed at a nursing home costs anywhere between $5500 to $20000 monthly. There are many rich, retired people who would have their finances depleted in a few years with a cost that high.
The average middle class individual would never be able to afford that so the fall back is usually medicaid.
What you are saying is generally true. The only real oversight in ensuring things are moving forward is us ourselves as patients. It's our responsibility as patients to take charge of our health.
That being said, P2P is sadly a standard aspect of American medical practice. Essentially anyone in a direct patient contact position position has done them. In the clinic or hospital, it may be your primary clinician handling it but it doesn't necessarily have to be. It can be handled by other clinical staff or a group of nonclinical doctors also.
You dont have to worry about P2P since it will get taken care of (whether the service will be covered by insurance is another story). Instead I'd focus on keeping disconnected parts of the system abreast of your medical conditions and current list of medications. Because health information is protected there really isn't a great solution for centralizing this data yet so if you go to a clinic that's on a different EMR, they're not going to have all of the necessary information available to them.
This is advice for doctors, not patients.
Usually doctors do the peer to peer and then the patient can appeal once services are denied (which is almost always the case if you've reached the peer to peer stage).
I've used this before with mild succees. It's far from reliably effective. You're more likely to get the decision over turned at the appeal stage, the problem being that precious time is lost while going through that process.
I do like to schedule an appointment so that patients are part of the peer to peer call. That way they can tell the doctor, nurse, PA, NP or whichever other service reimbursement bouncer the insurance company has hired that they're putting a curse on them and their family.
Early to mid mollenial here with the same experience. It all went downhill when Facebook and flip phones with cameras came out ie. around 2006.
