RFK Jr. asks CDC for new measles treatment guidance amid his unfounded claims Kennedy claimed that drugs like budesonide and clarithromycin "have been shown very effective" for measles, but doctors say they don't fight the infection itself.

β€˜Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’

One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

the people are running out of credit. this could be the end of years of abundance when each year there was an increase in consumer credit from the previous year. if it's over, that's a serious recessionary impulse.
