Getting real tired of the legal system only around to target non-Democrats. Laws broken, but when you're a Democrat, the rules bend. Fines get reduced and criminal investigations get dropped. Russian collusion hoax cost America so much in wasted money and time, and no one will be prosecuted for it. Heck, even New Jersey's Gov Phil Murphy says that he'll ignore the Supreme Court if he wants to. What does Law and Order mean to Democrats anymore?
Has US News and World Report visited Portland lately? If so, I'd doubt Portland make the list. What does it really have to offer? The naked bike ride? Voodoo Doughnuts and some soccer teams? But having to deal with trash, drugs, shooting, hideous graffiti and homeless tents everywhere? Also high taxes, from a city governance that is giving away so much money to the homeless problem that it has little to show for it?
A.I. is being used to generate a lot of fake medical publications. Kind of like what happened to this author. Be careful.
No, healthcare is not a right. It's a system we'd like everyone to be able to partake of. But a wish doesn't make it a true right. A liberal physician comes to realize this.
Yes, it's difficult to identify "fake news". What is fake today, may eventually become truth tomorrow, as it has with the vaccines and the coronavirus.
Cancer patients lose weight (cachexia), even more than can be explained by the calories they consumed. For years, it has been thought to be due to a substance initially called cachexin, and later found to be tumor necrosis factor-α. But inhibiting TNF-α didn't fix the problem. Now, the culprit has been identified as abnormal EDA2R–NIK signaling. An alternatively spliced mRNA of ectodysplasin A (EDA), called EDA-2R, interacts abnormally with its receptor, NFĸB-inducing kinase (NIK). This causes muscle wasting. Now we know the target, and can start working on treatment.
Young Americans aren't doing too well these day. WSJ reports that they are dying at higher rates. They're also dying of cancer more frequently as well. I suspect that this is from the obesity epidemic, but definite proof is elusive. Whatever it is, the population in the U.S. will decline, and this is not a sign of health, is it?
