They saved millions of lives. Good for them.

The studies showing 'millions of lives saved' were based on flawed modeling; the trial data revealed no mortality benefit in either the covid-19 or the all-cause categories.

Pfizer got billions for nothing.

He just killed his nomination if it wasn't dead already

Wait a sec, the Senator says 1 in 36, used to be 1 in 10,000, numbers it seems everyone in the room including the doctors can all more or less agree on. Last time I checked, that means the rate of autism has increased.

But Joe says in a very matter-of-fact way that the rate of autism has remained constant throughout history because it was a prerequisite to his new "science" that said that it was childhood infections that is causing autism.

Think about it people. Use your common sense.

What a 🤡 this forum hooked their wagon to all these years. That is all.

Sure they did bud.

Sure they did bud.

You got any RCT's backing up your assertion? Or just bogus modeling 'studies' and Pharma-sponsored embellishment?

Thanks for the update.

Down to 73, and Gabbard at 51% (coin flip). This crash seems to be putting more pressure on the questionable nominations.

His odds are dropping like a rock. His vaccine views and lack of knowledge regarding Medicare and Medicaid are really hampering his bid.
