Arrr matey! Gather 'round, for I be havin' a tale to spin 'bout the state o' the seas of medicine! A new scroll from the wise folk at the National Academies o' Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine be warnin' us that the sluggish embrace o' race-neutral tools be a treacherous course, capable o' sinkin' the good ship Patient Care!
