    Healthcare system Incoming trump admin with RFK signals new start for FDA

    Another frustratingly absurd statement from you that ignores previous information/discussion. I'm not calling Bernie Sanders a fraud for being ignorant on FMT. Only 2 out of 20+ Senators I talked to were familiar with FMT. And Bernie didn't even say he wasn't familiar with it. The reason Bernie...

    Nothing particularly promising has happened and they're taking the next week off completely. I'll post a big update in the other thread once it's useful to do so. RFK's "anti-vax" pick for the CDC, David Weldon, got dropped. I made it into one of the hearings, but it seems like for the vast...

    Yes! And other websites too! I just saw an article noting that "Hours after being confirmed as Secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. issued a statement that laid out sweeping plans for his first 100 days in office." ESTABLISHING THE PRESIDENT’S...

    He said he would look into it, but I'm unsure about the status of that. You raise a really good point though. I think it would be worth the effort to say that directly to Senator Cassidy. If you can take another day off to visit his office, or even write a letter that I can hand deliver to him...

    It doesn't appear that anyone is sharing it on social media so it's not getting many votes. Per their most recent update (https://forum.policiesforpeople.com/t/welcome-to-policies-for-the-people/20730), they apparently DO care about the number of votes and refer to it as "social proof".

    I don't think it's the best idea to make what is essentially a duplicate, and looks similar to spam. I think commenting in the first thread and sharing it on social media encouraging other people to vote, is the better tactic. AU's regulations are not good at all BTW. The TGA went against much...

    In this video on RFK's YT channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yg2PpeO-clk, Nicole Shanahan, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s running mate, says he's the only candidate that is serious about chronic disease, and she is too and that's why she supports him. I was very heartened to hear this, and then...

    Healthcare system Doctors are not systematically updated on the latest literature. What they're taught in med school is often wrong or gets outdated quickly. The result is the majority of doctors are extremely uninformed/misinformed about many major medical conditions. I believe this is costing many lives. (May 2018)

    The obvious solution to me seems to be what I originally assumed would be the case: A national medical board, possibly elected by anyone who holds a medical degree, has the responsibility of reviewing all medical research, voting on changes to standard practice (including medical school...

    Public health Chronic disease and general poor health have been drastically increasing globally. It seems like we're experiencing a major health crisis with the vast majority of people in poor health. Doesn't this mean people working in public health are failing? What can be done to turn things around? (Feb 2020)

    General health Attractiveness, facial features, and health & development. (Jun 2019)

    When this was brought up in a recent discussion I learned that apparently this is a contentious topic so I looked into the research. My position: Health absolutely reflects in the face. Does that mean every person with an attractive face is healthy? No. Does that mean we can determine someone's...

    Patients with zero medical training/knowledge are forced to resort to basically being their own doctors via internet research. I have raised this issue in many places, talked to some doctors about it, brought it up with a doctor who is also a lawmaker. I've also contacted my state's medical...
