What “The Pitt” Taught Me About Being a Doctor | The New Yorker

I’ll say it. Dhruv Khullar is pushing boundaries like Gawande never could. He’s bringing medicine mainstream like Gawande never could. Gawande mainly appealed to medical technocrats.

I binged “The Pitt” over the holidays, during an especially busy stretch in my hospital. Practicing medicine by day and watching medicine by night was surreal. I found myself grappling with the peculiar way that doctors toggle between the quotidian and the extreme. In one room, you joke with a patient about the Mets; in another, you tell someone that their cancer has spread. With time, you start to forget how strange this is. But “The Pitt” did what good art often does: it allowed me to see my reality more clearly.

Economic inequality does not equate to poor well-being or mental health

A meta-analysis of 168 studies covering more than 11 million people found no reliable link between economic inequality and well-being or mental health. In other words, living in a place that has large gaps between the rich and poor does not affect these outcomes, with implications for policy.
