It’s Friday! Let’s celebrate the weekend with the top five items from MCN staff, on the many happenings in migrant health and beyond. 

1. Candace, Specialist in Clinical Systems & Women’s Health, recommended an interesting article on how primary care providers are comparable to specialists for hepatitis C treatment.

2. Karen, CEO, offered this Ted Talk from Russ Altman: What really happens when you mix medications?

3. Ricardo, Health Network Manager, thought we would enjoy a PBS NewsHour piece, “For depression, primary care doctors could be a barrier to treatment.” 

4. Del, Director of International Projects, Research, and Development, forwarded on a web app with interactive data on healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, called the Antibiotic Resistance Patient Safety Atlas.

5. Candace shared this tribute to Dr. Virgilio Licona, in the Journal of Health Care for the Poore and Underserved. 

Have a healthy and safe weekend.
