Episode 4: This is Our Lane
In 2018, the NRA tweeted, “Someone should tell self-important anti-gun doctors to stay in their lane,” in response to a paper released by the American College of Physicians (ACP) about Reducing Firearm Injuries and Death in the United States. Soon after, medical professionals from around the country responded with their stories using the hashtag #ThisIsOurLane.
Episode 4 of (Re)Search for Solutions reflects on the crucial role emergency medicine physicians, who are on the front lines of responding to firearm injuries, play in developing solutions.
We spoke with Dr. Megan Ranney, an emergency physician and faculty at Brown University and co-founder of the AFFIRM Research collective. She tells us how AFFIRM includes the perspectives of more than 40,000 healthcare professionals, public health experts, and researchers to find ways to reduce gun violence. Additionally, Dr. Ameera Haamid, an emergency medicine physician at Cook County Hospital in Chicago and the Assistant Medical Director of the Chicago West EMS System, as well as Dr. Garth Walker, an emergency medicine physician at Jesse Brown Veteran Affairs Medical Hospital in Chicago and a health equity fellow with the Northwestern Emergency Department and Northwestern Buehler Center for health economics and policy, share their experiences treating gun violence victims.
