I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

How a Canadian scientist and a venomous lizard helped pave the way for Ozempic - National | Globalnews.ca In 1984, Dr. Daniel Drucker, an endocrinologist from the University of Toronto, discovered a hormone that helped pave the way for popular diabetes drugs such as Ozempic.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.

Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

They've gotta fill those for-profit prisons somehow, and Head Start programs get in the way of that.

PROP - PR Over Policy.

Don't confuse them.

He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him.

Dems need to be strategic.

The Myth of Drug Expiration Dates Hospitals and pharmacies are required to toss expired drugs, no matter how expensive or vital. Meanwhile the FDA has long known that many remain safe and potent for years longer.

One way to reduce drug spend is to have the FDA do an analysis of how long medicine retains it's potency. It can do it one drug at a time.

No one should throw away medicine they shouldn't have to. Whether pharmacy or patient.

Those civics and government classes I took in high school were really important. In the past month I’ve used what I learned in those classes to educate patients on their rights, between reps and sets. #publichealthPT #immigration #refugee #physicaltherapy4all

Happy Deductiblenacht and may all your policies reset!

The appeal to nature fallacy is the false belief that "natural" is better.

Natural things that can kill you? Pathogenic microorganisms.

Smallpox virus is natural. So is SARS-CoV-2. And poliovirus. And Rabies virus. So is Yersinia pestis, the bacteria that causes plague.

This is why we science.

It is not for the help it can give us or our families, but rather for the possibility of contributing to the betterment of our shared world, our communities, or our species.

Science is selfless.
