Apparently, the latest conspiracy theory is that the measles epidemic in Texas was a bioweapon attack: ““I’m not going to be careful by calling it a virus,” Willis said in the measles webinar. “I’m going to call it what it is, and that is a bioweapon, and my belief after interviewing these families is that […]
The House Republicans’ budget resolution is now available. In it, they are proposing a cut of ~$800 billion. Almost all of the $800 billion 10-year spending cut target for the Energy and Commerce Committee would come out of Medicaid by choice.

mRNA vaccines have proven to overwhelmingly successful in blunting the COVID-19 pandemic. They are also as safe or safer than any other vaccine.
