This is a woman whose account I follow on X/Twitter. She posts the most wonderful videos, of her "Hand of Snacks," wherein she holds out her hand full of bird snacks, and they come and eat. She must have an iron arm, because she can hold still for long periods while the birds come to …

For the past five years, a segment of the scientific and medical universe has been shouting into the ether, that the mRNA Covid shots, and many other childhood and adult vaccines are worthless, and positively harmful to most who take them. Up until very recently, their cries and stories have been ignored and suppressed by …

One of the major characteristics of a socialized medicine system, where ALL of medical care is paid for by Government (in the US, Obama called it "Single Payer"), there is never enough care or money to go around.
