In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.

249 years later, we have this idiot.

Good, now do Cory Mills.

Coach K’s grandson charged with misdemeanor DWI in collision that killed teen riding bicycle DURHAM, N.C. (WPTF) - A grandson of former Duke Basketball Coach Mike Krzyzewski now faces charges in a fatal ...

I don't care about the celebrity connection but this story highlights how our culture mimimizes impaired driving. This guy already had a DWI conviction before killing a kid with a 0.11 BAC...and just gets a misdemeanor charge. He should lose driving privileges for life!!

If you’re in Virginia, for the sake of everything that matters to the rest of the civilized world, please get out today and vote yes on the constitutional amendment

You’re not wrong.

Agree! Love their wide spaces.

I bet the Obama Presidential Library will have books.

How dare you drive the speed limit when I'm late to something due to my own poor time management skills.

I'm Jewish American. Age 70.
I have never voted for a Republican in my lifetime.
I have never supported Benjamin Netanyahu. Likud and the other right-wing parties in Israel jeopardize the chances for peace in the Middle East.

Palantir's summary of CEO Alexander Karp's manifesto is generating buzz. Read the 22 bullet points. Among the 22 points summarizing Palantir CEO Alex Karp's manifesto is the belief that the US should consider reinstating the military draft.

There are companies our government should have nothing to do with anymore—e.g., those associated with Elon Musk—and Palantir is on that list.

Dogs are cool.

Pass it on.

Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.

There’s no routine screening for pancreatic cancer, most cases aren’t operable, and the five year survival rate after diagnosis is around 13%. It’s a traumatic news.

But new personalized mRNA immunotherapy is showing encouraging results in Phase 1 clinical trials.

Keep funding science!
