Thank you for your portrayal of ID docs. As a retired ID doc myself I loved going through thick charts. I loved the fact that 1/3 of our consults ended up not being infectious etiologies, so we had to be good generalists. We once diagnosed a pneumonia on a patient by seeing a pigeon breeders magazine on his bedside table. He had psittacosis, of course. 😎
Yeesh. I was telling my brother about the ability of viruses to meld through antigenic shift, potentially creating a super virus...but I was talking about flu and covid at the time. Not sure if it's truly possible with monkey pox and covid, but I hope not!
Monkey corona pox? Please I doubt that will fly. It’s a stupid freaking name, no one will believe that shit. What? Faucci will come out saying it’s a super virus and now back to mask wearing and to wear long sleeves and gloves in the summer so we don’t touch other people skin? 😂 😂 It’s easier not to follow the “rules”
@@Ajehy Which is specially funny since, with the exception of whenever they're lecturing others about improper antibiotic prescription, infectious disease specialists tend to be chill dudes, not unlike in this vid. At least from my experience
My mom was in the hospital recently and in her phone call updates kept referencing infectious disease doctors visiting her room, and in my head all I kept picturing was Dr. Glauc's version saying in a smooth as silk voice, "Pharmacy, I got bugs to kill." (From "Bill Orders Antibiotics")
@@karenk2409 You're not an idiot and I dont think they can mate (combine). There can be different strains of a virus as it mutates (and two different strains of the same virus can combine to form a new subtype), but two separate ones don't. Yet. Also this is two years old and I'm pretty sure I was making a joke.
As long as people reject the moronic 'preventative measures' which clearly don't work like lockdowns, isolation, and masking and focus on positive aspects like improving personal health through routine exercise, sufficient sleep, and a balanced diet while also simply staying the fuck home when they're actually sick... we'll be fine.
Thank you for bringing back ID! I've loved his personality since "The Closer." Would like to see his character development Edit: also I don't see ID going to therapy - maybe because he's perfect
Doc, I'm a pharmacy student. You reinforce my desire to specialize in infectious disease, but I'll have to update my sunglasses. Thanks for the laughs!
Doc thanks to you I want to call my colleagues at work by their specialties or fields. I work in psych department at a university. My colleagues include one Cognitive, three behavioral, and me, Neuro. Just today I caught up with Early Elementary Education and my neighbor near my office, Social Work. We've got Electrical engineering next door to Historian, and Biomedical Sciences. The sad thing this so much sense to me now!
I'm a 3rd year about to start my clinical rotations and every time I see one of your videos about infectious disease it makes me want to do a rotation with them.
You absolutely should! I always had fun on ID consults, and the microbiology and pharmacology are hella useful almost no matter what field you end up specializing in. (I'm now mostly a primary care doc. )
Comedy gold. Thank you for highlighting the essential contributions of different departments. Much love for our infectious disease colleagues. Stay safe out there and wash your hands!!
The Ken Burns riff displays what incredible writing Dr G and his team can do in addition to his physical comedy. Seriously good comedy writing is a rare and beautiful thing.
I love you for having him give a lecture every time someone prescribes a z-pack. I don't think I've prescribed azithromycin in 2-3 years because of resistance and I am so tired of patients requesting it and the urgent cares doling it out like candy.
Part of me wants to laugh at the punch line, but another part of me is like “this decade has already been so cursed, and I don’t want to jinx things any further”
Because of this, I searched the internet to see if there is such a thing as whale pox. I was totally freaked out to find out there is. Thanks to you Dr. Glaucomflecken I will never swim in the ocean again, for fear of becoming a gigantic total body whale pock.
As someone who's watched the "Lockdown" episode arc from ER, I concur that mutated monkeypox are no fun. On an unrelated note, I'm _seriously_ craving some grape juice now
No. That happens if both viruses infect the same person and a virus particle picks up genetic material from both. That's only likely if the two viruses are of the same species or closely related. The genetic material of poxviruses is DNA, coronaviruses have RNA. They're completely incompatible.
It's a joke. They have different genomes (SARS-CoV-2 is a RNA-virus, Monkeypox virus a DNA-virus). But influenza A can combine different subtypes of itself the way he describes.
I work in LTC facilities, and been working with prevention of Monkey Pox. I started laughing at the beginning and by the end was thrown into a crisis. 🤣🤣🤣
I love how this skit could have taken place entirely in a bar and Doc I-D woulda been midkey in his place to be. Rugged veteran of the field, if only we could see what he can see, the horrors our hubris would yield
Glad the good doctor placed a disclaimer saying he is an ophthalmologist. Monkeypox is actually transmitted from rodents, like squirrels and such. It got its name because the disease was discovered on a group of monkeys.
🤣🤣 I don't think you get this channel. You'd have to go through medical school to understand the jokes. Btw definitely fear antibiotic resistance whenever you hear a friend stopping their antibiotics bc they feel better and they no longer "need them"
@@jworthy4438 I definitely haven't gone through med school (I'm a therapist instead) but I love his videos, and I think that's actually a huge strength of it, how he can write things in an understandable way that's funny even to people who aren't in the medical field! @Daniellle I'm sure antibiotic resistance will be involved soon, I can't think of any of his videos that do bring it up right now, but I'd be surprised if absolutely none did.

I want Dr. G. to write a dialog between a radiologist and an infectious diseases specialist.

Thank God for the humor in your videos. The world is such a disaster right now, only your ability to laugh at it keeps me going. Take care. Enjoy your weekend.
not surprised that the opthalmologist doesn't know that actions have consequences and jinxing it is real, why do you think ED docs are afraid of the q word
