Sign with a rocket and hearts saying "Public servants advance scientific innovation".

I'm lucky to know lots of former and current dedicated public servants who want to ensure that our citizens are healthy, that our first responders have technologies to keep them safe, and that our electronic networks are secure, among other important work. I'm grateful for all you do. #FedLove

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 β€œWhy are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

New Medicare Advantage and Part D proposed rule is out. We are expanding access to anti-obesity medications, enhancing protections for people with Medicare against inappropriate use of prior authorization and misleading marketing, and increasing competition.

Obesity Drugs Would Be Covered by Medicare and Medicaid Under Biden Proposal (Gift Article) The proposed rule could give millions of Americans access to the new drugs; it would also put pressure on the federal budget.

There is a proposal for Medicare to pay for #GLP1 medications for obesity.

Why wait until obesity-related diseases like #type2diabetes develop when you can prevent them from occurring in the first place?

I was going to suggest the same thing! My kiddo has one that is like a mini computer with games and lessons on geography and animals native to various places. Full transparency, you will get pulled into answering quiz questions.
