If you are >40 & alive today you can thank science & medicine.
I say all of that to say that this insanity about degrading the medical infrastructure in this countey has to stop. Millions of people will suffer because of the defunding and politicization of the leading science bodies in the US.
Today, people live to be triple digits in age. The factor is not organic food or any other diet or environmental advancement. Itβs science. Science keeps you alive longer. Science knows how to prevent & tx diseases that killed everyone 100 yrs ago.
