    Thank you @RealDoctorMike. Putting primary care at the frontline helps #FlattenTheCurve, but not without the proper protective equipment. #COVID19. x.com/aafp/status/12…

    We need more resources on the frontlines of the #COVID19 outbreak! There’s patients we want to test, but we simply don’t have the #coronavirus testing resources available! @WhiteHouse let’s get it moving 💪🏼⛑🦠 @aafp @AOAforDOs

    #SCOTUS decision criminalizes medical care, undermines patient-physician relationship and exacerbates health inequities. #AAFP urges state legislators to strike down laws that jeopardize reproductive care and access. ow.ly/7OjM50JGLyi

    Vital supplies & resources are needed by physicians on the #frontline of the #COVID19 outbreak. The AAFP calls on the @WhiteHouse #Coronavirus Task Force to reach out and let us help you get our physicians what they need! @Mike_Pence @senatemajldr @SenSchumer @SpeakerPelosi @3M

    The AAFP recommends that all babies, with rare exceptions, be breastfed and/or receive expressed human milk exclusively for the first six months of life. For more information on the family physician's role in supporting #breastfeeding, go to ow.ly/RIfE30kS86E

    Family physicians and other health care professionals continue to make personal sacrifices to help us fight this terrible virus. Suggesting they are artificially inflating #COVID19 mortality numbers for financial gain is just plain wrong. aafp.org/news/media-cen…
