Unvaccinated infants are the second most likely group to get hospitalized for Covid after older adults. Any effort to minimize the effectiveness for kids is evil.

The week around Thanksgiving has the third-highest number of unintentional shootings out of all weeks in the year. Keeping firearms unlocked is a recipe for tragedy, especially at times when there are more people in the home.

Hi there—me again, the guy who keeps saying RFK Jr doesn't have to say he's banning vaccines to make them disappear, the guy who urges you to get up to date on all your vaccinations.
This week had already given me multiple reasons to triple down on my warnings; Friday, Vinay Prasad gave me another.

NEW: The F.D.A. announced in an internal memo that 10 children died "because of" the Covid shot. Other experts want to see proof.
“This is a profound revelation,” Dr. Prasad's memo said. “For the first time, the U.S. F.D.A. will acknowledge that Covid-19 vaccines have killed American children.”

Remember Andrew Wakefield?
Here he is with his friend RFK Jr. in 2020.
Wakefield is the guy behind the fraudulent, retracted MMR–autism study. He lost his medical license for subjecting autistic children to unnecessary invasive procedures.
Now, with Kennedy in power, he’s getting a second act.

11 years ago today, 12 year old Tamir Rice was gunned down by police officers on Cleveland’s west side.
The officer shot him within seconds of arriving at the park he was playing in.
Tamir’s life mattered. It still does. My thoughts are with his family today.

Decades of rigorous and scientifically sound research have proven that vaccines do not cause autism. CDC’s decision to change language on its website reversing that finding is reckless & harmful.

According to the Trump admin, nursing isn’t a profession so they won’t qualify for student loans 🤬
We’re barely recovering from the last RN shortage and they want to create another one 😫
Literally zero patients survive the ICU without outstanding RN care.

Nursing is no longer counted as a 'professional degree' by Trump admin
The Department of Education has excluded nursing as a "professional degree" program as it implements various changes to student loans.
