Thanks to the tireless advocacy of @marganina and others working on the HIV Organ Policy Equity Act (HOPE Act), people who are HIV+ can now donate organs to other HIV+ people, expanding the US organ supply. 11alive.com/video/news/loc…

On #WorldKidneyDay today, it's important to highlight that kidney transplants are safe and effective between people with HIV, utilizing living or deceased donors, thanks in part to the HIV Organ Policy Equity Act of 2013 in the United States and in larger part to decades (1/5)

Medical school will always be harder for those without family/personal wealth because (1) you have to pay for it and (2) there isn’t enough free time to work. We shouldn’t make it even harder by requiring outrageous research experience for residency which favors those with money…
