Scientist here. Mitochondria do not present challenges to faces, movements, or social connections. Maybe those kids just don’t like you because you’re staring at them like a creep who wants to give them measles.
RFK JR: I’m looking at kids as I walk through the airports today...and I see these kids that are just overburdened with mitochondrial challenges, inflammation—you can tell from their faces, movements, and lack of social connection

More than 98% of families in this country choose to vaccinate their young children. But now, vaccine policy is being shaped by the small, extreme minority that doesn’t. This decision doesn’t reflect, protect or support families.

An idea to get us out of the bubble and into a culture of grit and straight talk. Bring DNC to the Mahoning Valley, the culture that became known as the cradle of coaches bc we produced so many winning coaches. And home of the best Italian food in America

"The most supported health care bill!" @SpeakerJohnson @RepJeffries @SenSchumer @LeaderMcConnell #FixPriorAuth #SeniorsAct
Time is running out! Let’s ensure America’s seniors get the care they deserve. Congress needs to pass my bipartisan bill to end unnecessary prior authorization delays before the end of the year.

PBM’s are not ‘market based’ because they work around the system to destroy local pharmacies and reap huge profits for Insurance companies. There MUST be significant reform. #StopTheFraud.

231 House & 59 Senate cosponsors, +500 endorsing organizations and $0 estimate from CBO. There should be nothing standing in the way of passing this bipartisan #PriorAuth bill now @SpeakerJohnson @RepJeffries @SenSchumer @LeaderMcConnell
America's seniors deserve better than delays & denials from Medicare Advantage plans. ASGE calls on Congress to fix #PriorAuth & pass the bipartisan #SeniorsAct now.

"The brutal irony is that we, the taxpayers, subsidize the very food that makes us sick. Then we, as a society, subsidize the resulting health care crisis." 👍🏽@TimRyan
Our food system is broken. We are poisoning our kids. We are sick and 75% of our health care costs are on diseases that are preventable. While I don’t agree with @RFKJrHealthSec on everything. He is right on this. Dems should help. Pls read.

The key is the contracts CEOs of self insured companies sign. You may not understand why, but the healthcare insurance and PBM contracts YOU have signed for Tesla, SpaceX , @X, along with CEOs of other big companies , have more impact on healthcare costs and quality of care

.@SenSherrodBrown @boblatta Say NO to the #Biosimilar Red Tape Elimination Act w/o protecting pediatric patients against non-medical switching. Physicians should have final say on Rx treatment, not insurers & PBMs.

#WaterBead toys or toys that contain water beads do not make good holiday gifts for children. If swallowed, they will expand in the intestinal tract creating a dangerous situation. They cannot be easily visualized with an x-ray, making diagnosis difficult.
Water bead products are a pediatric ingestion hazard in need of a strong safety standard. Read NASPGHAN’s letter to the @USCPSC and remember to report foreign body ingestions to https://t.co/flsRAx4jxp.
