Naturally-derived & synthetic versions of a chemical are the same chemical.

Ex: formaldehyde, formula CH₂O.

TRACE levels in some vaccines, <50 micrograms (µg) per dose.

YOUR BODY makes 42,520,000 µg formaldehyde a day. (1.5 oz, 850,000-times more than a vaccine).

It’s the SAME formaldehyde.

I grew up with Reading is Fundamental messaging and bookmobiles in the 1970s. I loved/love reading! The irony that RIF now causes such pain 😡. Let's call our reps about saving libraries/museums as furiously as we have for science. Knowledge is power

Fellow worm breeders: instead of fretting alone at home about the current state of the NIH, I encourage you to write to your Senators and Congressmen and the President touting why basic research fuels our economy and that the constraints placed on the NIH this week will stifle scientific progress.
