Anchorage be careful if driving today. After our first significant snowfall of the season yesterday (6-8"), Anchorage police have responded to 42 crashes and another 49 vehicles in distress so far. The first day is always a gotcha.

Now you don't have to teach young doctors how to detect murmurs & AFib. You can just buy a $500 electronic stethoscope. You don't even need the doctor.

Important. Cases linked to NB.1.8.1 variant surging in Taiwan, Singapore, etc., reported in arriving international travelers at airports in California, Washington. Anchorage wastewater shows definite increase in local COVID. NB.1.8.1 spreads more rapidly. Mask & vaccinate.

He also thanks 2 TX "doctors" for using aerosolized budesonide & clarithromycin to "heal" 300 measles patients, unsupported by any scientific evidence. 1 said mass infection is “God’s version of measles immunization.” The other disciplined by TX med regulators for inappropriate use of treatments.

He finally said it. After 2 unnecessary deaths. Buried at the end of a very, very long post on X. But he finally said it, "The most effective way to prevent the spread of measles is the MMR vaccine." Please spread the word.

The FDA is expected to lose 3,500 workers in the coming weeks. Some staffers report they arrived at FDA offices today & found their badges did not work. Former FDA Commissioner Robert Califf, MD, said on LinkedIn, "The FDA as we've known it is finished."
