No thanks to raw milk cheese.
“Live H5N1 avian flu can survive in raw-milk cheese for up to 6 months”
I’m getting troubled about this narrative that the AI bubble is propping up The Economy and keeping things “good”.
Because this seems to be almost like an argument about why people need to die needlessly because of lack of healthcare insurance because private health insurance employs some people in jobs.
Another unfortunate victim of the ghost health insurance scam.
So we have to warn each other.

“Trump received Covid vaccine and flu shot during second physical of the year”
After healthcare visits, always check the notes entered into the record for accuracy.
AI errors are probably polluting healthcare records now. For the past couple of years I’ve been finding gross mistakes entered into my records, claims of me saying things I didn’t say at all or in fact I’d said the opposite, or just describing things that were not true or never happened in the visit. And […]
Little infant babies rely on the rest of us around them to get vaccinated to protect them.

I almost can’t believe quack medbeds are still a thing but it’s part of a bigger narrative.
The medbed thing is tied to the “quantum” craze & UFOs as climate contrarianism conspiracy theories about alien technology that will soon provide limitless energy that will solve climate change.
Hospitals are Trumpian about hospital acquired infections.
“If we stopped testing right now, we’d have very few cases, if any.” – Donald Trump, June 15 2020
On the provenance and funding of extremely cited articles.
I guess maybe John Ioannidis would know.
AI boosters use the vulnerable people as scapegoats tactic.

Parents want school vaccine requirements.
“Parental support for school vaccine mandates remains high in US”
Infectious disease is seemingly assiduously ignored in media.
There were 2 articles about “health” in the newspaper in early September 2025. One was ostensibly about staying healthy during air travel, and the other was about children staying healthy at school. Neither mentioned aerosol transmission of infectious disease like covid, nor anything you could do about it.
The anti-vax team at the central government.
This is what I found over a year ago on the doctor Jordan Vaughn who’s now on the CDC ACIP working group as a “subject matter expert”
Universal covid vaccination is better for everyone, because that’s how vaccines work best.
“Universal COVID vaccination saves lives, averts 10% to 20% of disease burden, estimates suggest”

“intolerance” and “systemic racism”
The supplement boom is based in shoddy science, or no real science at all.
Because so often the online marketing of supplements and various wellness products involves linking to a study that doesn’t back up their claims at all, but nobody ever clicks through so they get away with fraudulent appeal to authority.
Republicans are running nonstop commercials in NEPA (Northeastern Pennsylvania) to justify the BBBill.
Republicans, or somebody pro-Republican, is running ads that are trying to tell us Rep. Rob Bresnahan voting for the Big Boondoggle Bill was good actually.
