The real issue is a lack of a universal healthcare system that regulates for-profit entities.

Since when do drug companies update labeling for medications they don't manufacture or market based on case reports?!

Right? How far does autonomy extend vs the trust of healthcare professionals to recommend the appropriate therapeutic intervention?

Why the Right Still Embraces Ivermectin (Gift Article) Five years after the pandemic began, interest in the anti-parasitic drug is rising again as right-wing influencers promote it — and spread misinformation about it.

Honestly scary to see politics circumvent pharmacy practice in its professional responsibility to uphold safe and effective medication use.

U.S. health department plans to slash 10,000 jobs as RFK Jr. upends agencies The massive cuts at Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Health and Human Services Department could affect teams that respond to outbreaks and help with insurance coverage.

"He had said he would clear out "entire departments" at the FDA, saying that workers who stand in the way of approval of several controversial or dubious treatments should prepare to "pack their bags."

Who needs drug safety, right?

Why a teenager’s bird-flu infection is ringing alarm bells for scientists A strain of avian influenza is showing signs of adaptation to human hosts, but there is no evidence that it can transmit from person to person.

Honestly, the thing that scares me the most about a future pandemic is how resistant the American populace will be to any sort of science-driven intervention/mitigation.
