Again, according to plan. Get the population to believe in magic rather than trusting medicine. Soon, corporate employers won’t have to offer health care, and aging Millennials won’t say shit when there’s no Medicare.
Where is this moron factory that’s working so much overtime?
The man deliberately swam in sewage. Also, literally had a worm in his brain. Other than pedophiles, these are the people Trump hangs out with.
Prior to 2025 I could assume the CDC was staffed with well meaning technocrats. They could get something wrong, but they would almost always be correct, far more often than me.
Now I have to figure out if they are pushing a crackpot political agenda or giving legitimate guidelines.
Usually it will be the latter, but it’s a cognitive load and that corrodes trust.
In 2020 they recommended against face masks for non-healthcare workers. My understanding is that they did this to conserve masks for healthcare workers, as did the WHO. IMHO that was a really shitty thing for them to have done. Presenting all the facts and pleading with the public would, I think, have resulted in higher trust in them as an institution, ultimately saving lives, but that’s just my opinion I guess.
But yeah, completely agree that even then it was more or less well meaning, as opposed to now.
They made the decision that would save the most lives, which is their job. As for the people doing what’s best for society, that’s antithetical to American individualism, and your faith was proven wrong with both masks and toilet paper being bought for resale at predatory prices, or just to maintain personal supplies at the expense of everyone else.

But they lied to the public, which undermines trust; IMHO this was a myopic decision.

Can’t speak for everyone, but Flex Alerts in California do indeed work (it’s when we’re asked to reduce energy consumption).

That’s a fallacy/faulty generalization — I’m not saying everyone behaves well, but from my experience, the vast majority do. The pandemic for me was a time where I really felt like we looked out for our fellow people, at least locally.
I, for one, would implicity trust my health to someone who snorts coke off of public toilet seats.
The Onion sure has their work cut out for them.
At this point they would have to write him making sensible health policy decisions and that wouldn’t be funny.
They’ve already written reasonable amicus briefs, what further cruelty can we inflict upon them?
You mean to tell me the heroin addict, with brain worms who hates vaccines has plummeted trust?
Who could have seen it coming
Faith and trust are two different things
Hard to know whether I “have faith in” American healthcare when I can’t even afford it.
I have faith, that the Regime’s approach to healthcare will have fatal consequences. My hope is that the MAGA population approaches zero within a few decades.
“Trump promised” <— Found the problem
I’ve been rewatching Futurama for background noise while cooking and RFK absolutely feels 1:1 like he’s got a brain slug with the advice he’s been dispensing.
So, the same thing that happens every time America gives Republicans control.
James Van Der Beek just died of cancer and his family just had to hold a fundraiser because cancer treatments apparently wiped out their family finances.
That’s a guy who’s net worth was in the millions. A guy with millions went nearly bankrupt in the American Don’t Give A Care system. Meanwhile, here I am paying 10K a year for my family only to pay another 10K in deductibles a year to hopefully die quickly if something goes wrong.
Gee wonder why I have no faith in American healthcare.
Oh and get scoped regularly, don’t just crap in a box, since colon cancer is the only cancer that’s on the rise and hitting younger people.
It’s not as rare as people keep acting…
He was on a hit TV show 20 years ago, but it was his breakout so he probably got no residuals
He wasn’t broke, he was a landlord that made like 12k/month off rent. But if his net worth was in the millions it was probably just like two LA houses that most likely still had mortgages. If you’re going off websites it’s probably reported wrong.
Like it’s applicable to everyone because insurance shouldn’t be tied to employment now that wages aren’t capped due to WW2 anymore, but it’s not like he was the 1% either. You gotta be well over 10 million for that.
Which should make us realize how bad wealth inequality has gotten. To the actual oligarchs Dawson and the rest of us are the same.
I think they’re recommending regular colonoscopy at age 45 now. That’s like once every five years unless they find something they want to keep track of.
But yeah, if you want to start earlier than that, do. The diet and prep the couple days before is far worse than the procedure.
I’m below 45 but I’m gonna try and talk my doctor into letting me get a test early for no reason other than my being paranoid. I’ve had a few hemorrhoids and my bowels smell odder than usual despite following the same diet, so I just wanna see what my options are.
Low iron worked for me. Mine might have been due to frequent blood donations if you can do those. Try to manage having labs drawn for the doctor shortly after donating (double red blood cells is best). This of course depends on your ability to donate and line up the two appointments appropriately as well as having a hemoglobin that can be dropped low enough to warrant further investigation. It might be a very niche suggestion, but it could work for someone else.
A relative of mine had a condition where he couldn’t get rid of excess iron. The treatment? Blood letting. Once his levels were back down to normal, donation every 3 months.
The Merdes Touch.
This could have easily been predicted, because everything Pedonald touches turns to shit. Why this country ever let this shitty rapey con artist get his grubby tiny paws on it is beyond me, but here we are.
sHE had A fUNnY LaUgH!!!
So true.
I’m so glad so many of my fellow Americans base their votes on stupid vibes like how a woman laughs.
