Let me see if I have this right
RFK Jr wants to curtail use of GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic because he says people should instead make “lifestyle changes” but he himself takes testosterone as a lifestyle drug so he can look all pumped up & mega macho
I think this is a tad hypocritical?

This is a fascinating chart and I suspect if the gaps shown here were reduced through better education from TV, Movies, schools, the press and on social media, we'd see a lot of societal issues become less prevalent or problematic.

I see hysteria about this is not limited to Twitter.
'while I'm not saying they're alike at all, I'm going to draw a heavy comparison regardless'
This is not helpful in any way. It's purely going to drive up anxiety. That's bad public health messaging.

While I'm not claiming that this is the same situation, in 2009 two unconnected children in California were the first to test positive for the 2009 H1N1 swine flu virus that would later be called a pandemic.
⚠️ BREAKING:
California reports one presumptive human case of H5N1 bird flu in a child with mild symptoms, according to the California Department of Public Health.
They had no known contact with an infected animal.

National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP or NVICP).
Are pharmaceutical companies immune from prosecution? No
Are they not liable for their products, such as vaccines? No
Can you sue pharmaceutical companies? Yes
So why the statements that they are immune?

Ok, some thoughts:
1) this will be one of the biggest civil-military crises this country has ever seen.
2) it will have drastic negative effects on our military readiness and effectiveness
I’ll expand a little on each point below.

I don’t even have a way to say how bad this would be. I will need some time to collect my thoughts from where this grenade just sent them.
Not that I didn’t expect politicization of the top ranks, but I didn’t think it would be this fast and furious.

Kristi Noem was too dumb to train her dog. She's not going to be able to deport 25 million people.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) released a report on winter mortality that got some recent press (below) for the comparison of flu and covid mortality.
I wanted to go into the basis for the findings a little more deeply.
