Call me conservative, but I’m Catholic & I believe murder is morally wrong—even the murder of a repulsive bigot. Enabling the preventable death of even 1 child—much less thousands—by denying them vaccine access is also morally wrong. Pointing this out isn’t a violent threat.

A total quack who was previously charged for practicing medicine without a license for using chemical castration drugs on autistic children.

It is worth paying close attention to the new bill "Dangerous Viral Gain of Function Research Moratorium Act" introduced by Senator Roger Marshall.
If enacted, it will effectively stop all of virological research, including for vaccines.

As you read this "Exclusive" on the lead FBI agent spilling the beans on their "SARS-CoV-2 came from a lab", the thing that sticks out is the fact that they have absolutely nothing suggesting it did. Bupkis.
It's the same ignorant misrepresentations and conspiracy theories, 👇 being but one example.

A Vanity Fair paper on the origin of the pandemic details some of the reasoning behind the FBI's "Moderate confidence" assessment for a lab leak, via a retired FBI senior scientist.
It seems they were not aware of key information that rebuts their story 🤯 ▫️1/8

Here’s some positive H5N1 news for a change: conditional approval for poultry vaccines made by Zoetis for chickens.
Why didn’t we do this sooner? The answer is more complex than you might think.

I hate AI default answers. I wish I could turn it off. It’s frustrating when so many take it as fact. Many times it’s inaccurate or partially inaccurate (especially when it comes to science).

There is so much complexity and nuance to this deficit. Putting the blame on athletics alone is not way to solve the problem. Divide and conquer and fingerpointing is how they want us to react.
Big weekend for UCONN basketball so it’s probably a good time to note that the school is cutting 15% from all academic units over the next five years to cover a $70M deficit, yet continues to subsidize athletics with over $30M per year from the academic side.

Because I have already had to defend "adults" trick or treating today.
Here it is for everyone.
NO ONE can reliably tell age. What you may think is a 20 year old might be a tall 11 year old who got hit hard by puberty and just wants to trick or treat with her cousins.
Give everyone candy!
