Or have a setting for different colored skin. Or incorporated some sensor calibration first. I guess that's what happens when these devices are made in China.

Dear Doctor: Is it true COVID boosters are creating cancer recurrence in some patients? Ah, people are starting to take notice. Do you think he's heard of the plasmid contamination, and what it signifies? He says "you can safely disregard the claim, since that isn’t a real entity. That’s fearmongering." Then he says that the vax "provides pretty good protection against infection for a few months". Only a few months? What's the point of getting it? With regard to the safety and efficacy of getting the vax with cancer treatment, he says "your oncologist can help you decide the optimal time to get the vaccine if you are undergoing chemo". The truth is that oncologist don't really know how to juggle chemotherapy and the vax, because there's not been any testing on this. Many wait until a chemotherapy session is over before recommending the vax. Others say to get it right before chemotherapy starts, or just before the next cycle. It's just guessing, because no one knows for sure.

And Milford Regional Medical Center in Massachusetts can refuse to treat you if you spout "hate speech" or even if your boddy language offends someone. Don't wear your MAGA cap there.

Sports Illlustrated is no more. Destroyed by wokeism. No one wants to see the swimsuit edition anymore, when certain pictures can make you physically ill. Good riddance.
