I like Staffies, tennis, coffee, wounds and wine. Wound care NP x a very long time. Bibliophile. I don’t have time for nonsense. People waste a ton of psychic energy on stuff that never affects them. Move along and let people be happy. πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™

Tweet that says β€œBlue Cross Blue Shield will no longer cover anesthesia for the full length of certain surgeries in Connecticut, New York, and Missouri. 

If a surgery exceeds a specific duration, anesthesia costs for the additional time will not be covered.”

Private insurance defenders, do you really believe that 1/3 of healthcare claims are for unnecessary or fraudulent things?

Stopping universal masking&testing led to 25% increase in respiratory viral infections
Restarting staff masking led to 33% decrease

8 out of 100 (random sample) died in the hospital

Remember, Kennedy is not a vaccine β€œskeptic.” He has said that there is no safe or effective vaccine. He represents a profound health risk to the nation.

I just spotted the trend. Trump’s health agency picks deny the existence of diseases or blame them on lifestyle choices.

Kill the ACA, change the guidance, & insurance will stop covering them, including Medicare.

Bye-bye, insulin. Dr. Oz and RFK say diabetes is your fault and your responsibility.
