1️⃣ Visible Health has launched a local clinical trial feature. One of the first surfacing to users is an ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) trial led by Trudie Chalder, a researcher whose work has been highly controversial in ME. This raises important patient-safety concerns.

The only reason Olivia Nuzzi is of any actual interest is that she should face absolute rejection for her active complicity in helping RFK Jr, given that he is deranged, and has landed in the most dangerous role he could possibly have, and children are dying because of it, and will continue to die.
There is blood on the hands of Donald Trump, RFK, and every Republican who has allowed this sham to go on for far too long. When kids die unnecessarily and once-eradicated diseases darken the doors of terrified families and pediatricians, Americans will know who is responsible.
Breaking: After contentious debates and three failed attempts at a vote, a federal vaccine committee decided on Friday to end the decades-long recommendation that all newborns be immunized at birth against hepatitis B.
