A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Was appalled at all the ridiculous decisions made by this CDC on vaccines, but the meningococcal decision is so very dangerous it is beyond compare.

Congratulations Gabby. Was wondering if you delivered yet.
So happy for you and your husband and glad to see baby girl is doing well.
Hope you are getting some much needed rest too.

Exciting news for those suffering with PSVT:

I took care of numerous kids with fulminant hepatitis B in the 90s before the switch to getting the first vaccine at birth. I don’t recall having one since. I do not miss caring for that disease.

Love it!!!
We need all the help we can get after last season

Congratulations Governor Elect. I'm not in Virginia but so happy for you.
Best of luck in office.

Hope you're right Mark.
His haphazard approach to tariffs is destroying small businesses across the country.

I have great health insurance. Just did my selections for 2026, my insurance will increase by just over $800 next year for a single person with no dependents.
Overall not bad.
I feel lucky because I know many Americans are about to get hit with a ridiculous increase in their premiums.
So unfortunate

Rest in peace Sister Jean.
You were an amazing human being and the world was a better place with you in it.

So let me get this straight RFK ---
Tylenol use for circumcisions causes autism???

When are you going to state that drinking water at any point in life causes autism???

Every time you open your mouth, the United States gets dumber.

I knew they would go after vaccines with his second administration, but acetaminophen... I have no idea why those chose the one drug that has proven fairly safe in any trimester of pregnancy to go after.
They continue to dismantle the trust in medical care at every turn they can.

They haven't been.
Kenvue (makers of Tylenol now) has spoken out forcefully.
Problem is they do not have the megaphone a President or Secretary of a department does.
And the other problem is there is not much they can do to stop a required label change the FDA is mandating they make.

Really terrific review of this paper Dr. Murray.
Thoroughly enjoyed reading your detailed examination of what was in the paper.

And if you pull acetaminophen and every single vaccine available from the market today --- autism will still exist.
Correlation and causation are very different things.

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

First it was vaccines cause autism and now Kennedy and his cronies are telling us that acetaminophen markedly increases the risk of autism.
Acetaminophen has been shown (and proven) safe in pregnancy and one of the few drugs that pregnant women have been able to take with little risks.
SMDH (again)

I would suggest parents follow the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations on vaccines rather than Robert F. Kennedy's hand picked CDC advisors.
To say this new vaccine recommendation is dangerous is an understatement.
Even 3 of his hand picked advisors voted against it.

Today we saw why the Republican chair would not agree to put Kennedy under oath.
The blatant lies he was spewing out his mouth was amazing.
When the illnesses & deaths truly start to hit, that is 100% on you Republicans that confirmed this guy as head of HHS.
🤬🤬🤬

AOL is finally shutting down its dial-up internet service AOL’s dial-up internet is finally taking its last bow. Yes, while perhaps a dinosaur by today’s digital standards, dial-up is still around.

Am I the only one who didn't know that dial-up was still a thing?

This study was published in Annals of Internal Medicine; the journal is NOT retracting it just because of political pressure from the world's most extreme & dangerous anti-vaxx activist

The lead author, Anders Peter Hviid, says "I have not been targeted by a political figurehead in this way before"

I am right there with you.
He is single handedly destroying healthcare in this country and putting EVERYONE at risk.
Words alone cannot describe my disdain for this man

Initially I tried ferrous sulfate tablets (for about 4 days) and stopped those (made me nauseous every day).
I tried Iron gummies and have tolerated those just fine (I use Nature Made Gummies with Vit. C)
Much easier on the GI system for sure.

So got my labs yesterday.
My once daily iron gummie is definitely helping (my numbers)
I never felt weak or tired.

Hgb: 12.8
Ferritin now 12.4
Transferrin 281
Iron = 170 (was 54)
Iron Sat: 43%

Overall, would say pretty happy with the response

Yet another study (Danish) has found no association between aluminum in childhood vaccines & 50 different health conditions, including autism, asthma & autoimmune diseases. In this study, they tracked 1 million kids over 21 years.

Had what I think was the shortest power outage I have ever experienced (like 5 seconds).
But of course it was just long enough to have to log back into everything.

Recently discovered Club Yacht Rock on SiriusXm.
Love it!!

They asked for a card???
Who still has (readily available) their COVID cards?
That's crazy.
I would have been like you --- you mean my most recent booster vaccine?

Trump, 79, Can’t Remember Appointing His Own Fed Chair The president blamed Joe Biden for selecting Jerome Powell as the U.S. Central Bank head when it was in fact him who made the appointment.

Should we start questioning Trump's cognitive decline like they were with Biden?

We must immediately ban all bluetooth devices.
The evidence clearly shows they decrease brain function and number of neurons leading to decreased birth rates (Robert F. Kennedy) 🤪
