Sounds like he was diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease, which is not a legitimate disease. He likely went to a quack who uses bogus testing to tell everyone with chronic complaints they have secret hidden spirochetes. He will probably be put on months of unnecessary antibiotics. @lymescience.org

NEW: As the megabill takes effect, food banks will be the first to see increased need.
And since the pandemic, they’ve already scaled up to meet higher demand.
For @politico.com, I spoke to food bank leaders about how they’re preparing.

Any time I see a doctor say they had to leave medicine to “tell patients the truth”
they sounds like a grifter who’s going to
1) say some ableist, eugenicist BS about how you can prevent all your ailments with one easy hack your MD won’t tell you
2) sell useless, expensive supplements 💰

If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the last 25 years combatting quackery, it’s that physicians are no less prone to ideological capture than anyone else. Worse, members of our profession appear more, not less, prone to the Dunning-Kruger effect than most people.

Looks like we weren’t the only ones who’d rather get a root canal than watch Trump lie about protecting the Constitution.
His second inauguration tanked at just 24.59M viewers—less than Biden’s 33.76M in 2021 and even his own 30.64M in 2017.
Team Trump will lie about this, so spread the word!
