a few pearls about fever that i find myself repeating to trainees (and patients): - fevers often resolve on their own, and it can be hard to know if any intervention changed the course - fevers tend to come at night. "afebrile so far today" is not always reassuring - fever ≠ infection #idsky

Everything is a zoonosis! Drawing/listing challenge. #42- Long-tailed pygmy rice rat Needs no introduction in 2026… but in case you didn’t know, it’s the vector for Andes virus (hantavirus). Don’t judge my green blob too harshly 🫣, watercolors are hard 😅 #IDSky
