The Oregonian has an article about how the renegade West Coast Health Alliance vaccine group has come out with their own recommendations stating that the hepatitis B vaccine still should be given to all newborns. Since newborns typically don't abuse IV drugs, share needles or come into contact with hep B positive people, this makes sense. Yet the WCHA claims to have data and they link to this recommendation. Yeah, one of the authors is Rochelle Walensky, of COVID-vax fame. Haven't we already been misinformed by her enough. Give it a rest, Rochelle. You and your ilk (like Sidelinger) are no longer considered credible. 

The fact is that maternal hepatitis B infection is much more prevalent in "marginalised poor individuals: sex workers, rural migrant workers, irregular immigrants, homeless adults, and underprivileged individuals". Babies born to affluent parents where there these risk factors are absent, are not likely to have babies subject to this risk. No need to expose them to a vaccine that could cause harm when there's little benefit. Walensky sure has a track record in recommending such vaccines, doesn't she? So in the name of "equity", the WCHA feels that everybody has to get the vaccine.  The CDC isn't restricting the hepatitis B vaccine. If you want your baby to get it, go right ahead. It's just not a universal requirement.

Watch out when cheap Chinese electronic devices that seem like a good deal. This KVM switch device phones home to China, has hacking tools built in, and has a hidden undocumented microphone. The authors wonder:
How many similar devices with hidden functionalities might be lurking in your home, just waiting to be discovered? And not just those of Chinese origin.

Physicists prove the Universe isn’t a simulation after all. Were you worried? I wasn't. And the key to this insight was Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem. How versatile that theorem has turned out to be.

Interesting article that suggests that having a never-forgetting companion can get quite dreary. There is value is selective forgeting. That's how we grow. It would be nice to have the ability to say "Forget this". Even in our regular brains.

Working From Home Is Harming Young Employees. They’re Starting to See That. Is this what's causing young people to go wacko? Or is it the mRNA vax? Or microplastics? It's definitely something.

Young Chinese scientists are dying at "an alarming rate".  76 compared with 44 for the previous year. 44 still seems like a large number for young people. Shouldn't it be closer to 0? Is it just stress that's killing them off?

One social worker from Oregon once described how an 18-year-old high school graduate wanted to look like “a Barbie down there.”

Amy Penkin, a social worker with the Transgender Health Program at the Oregon Health & Science University, spoke of the case study at the 2021 conference of the US Professional Association for Transgender Health.

The patient, only identified as Sky, had indicated they were asexual, had no desire to have sex in the future and was hoping to have a procedure to remove “all erogenous tissue.”
How is this evidence-based medicine? We're going to look back at this and wonder how a institution like OHSU ever allowed this to happen. Their leadership sees this and is too scared to raise objections.
