The World Has Changed
The world has undergone tremendous changes over the past few years. We've had to swiftly adapt and evolve, transitioning to virtual interactions, facing the unexpected, and electing a new president of the United States amid a global pandemic.
Our perspectives on medicine have shifted, embracing telehealth as a convenient and beneficial service. Simultaneously, we've witnessed Russia's invasion of Ukraine, igniting a tragic war that resulted in the loss of thousands of innocent lives. This period has been a rollercoaster ride, marked by significant milestones like appointing the first black woman to the Supreme Court and the widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies. However, it has also brought troubling challenges like surging gas prices and notable inflation.
