Is it a coincidence that TCM is running the movie “Gaslight” at the same time slot as the State of the Union?

If I were a conspiracy theorist I would say that RFK Jr and the Trump regime were purposely trying to destroy our health care system.

Withdrawing from the World Health Organization leaves us with fewer data, slower warnings, and fewer tools when the next outbreak hits.

Not good for our country’s health.

Just a reminder to the current federal administration:

"It is a poor government that does not realize that the prolonged life, health and happiness of its people are its greatest asset."

I watch European soccer matches (Spanish, French, English and German) when I’m on the treadmill. No ads until halftime and I can listen to my own music.

- #RFKJr: "We need to prevent disease, not just treat it."

- No matter the level of expertise, #Nursing is a profession
- Nursing is the backbone, muscles & heart of the US healthcare system
- Educating & advancing #nurses in their profession should be your top priority!

-The Department of Education just said nursing is no longer a professional degree.

- #Nursing is one of the most important and respected professions. Our healthcare system depends on them.

- #Nurses save lives!! They must be respected as professionals!

-Mike Johnson says the GOP’s “healthcare plan” is too classified to share.

-Trump said he has a “concept of a plan.”

- Translation: There is no #GOP plan other than to let commercial insurance companies do whatever they want.

-Today President Trump said he got an MRI during a routing follow up

-An MRI is not part of routine screening or physical

-Also, Trump say he took an IQ test & then describes a test that sounds like a cognitive function scale, maybe the MoCA?

-Houston we have a problem

FYI: #CDC director Mehmet Oz has a financial stake in the company #iHerb which sells: folinic acid supplements (folinic acid = #leucovorin)

The disinformation about #Tylenol, autism, and this “treatment” are ALL part of their grift.

#RFKJr claimed Americans were healthier in the 60’s, so here’s a fact check:

In 1965:
-The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; now it’s 5.6/1000
-Life expectancy was 70 years; now it's ~77 years

-Death rates from heart attacks have decreased by >80% since 1970

-Here's a reminder of the science behind #vaccine development- in this case the Pfizer's mRNA COVID vax

-Over 40,000 individuals were studied: 1/2 with vaccine & 1/2 with placebo (shot without vaccine)

-By 2 weeks, the vaccinated group were 95% protected from getting Covid!
