Monday Spoon Feed:

Tuesday Spoon Feed:

Non-targeted hepatitis C screening in the ED (free regardless of risk) identified more new hepatitis C diagnoses than targeted screening; however, while this found more new cases, it did not translate to increases in successful treatment.

Hi! I've been practicing emergency medicine for over 20 years and started JournalFeed. I'm the Chief Spoon-Feeder, which means I either write or edit everything that's posted on the JournalFeed blog. But Nick totally runs the show with the podcast!
