Medicare/Medicaid Mandate Allowed; Hospitals No Longer Pretending to Follow the Science

The Supreme Court upheld Biden's vaccine mandate for health care workers in federally funded Medicare or Medicaid programs. The majority wrote,

After all, ensuring that providers take steps to avoid transmitting a dangerous virus to their patients is consistent with the fundamental principle of the medical profession: first, do no harm. It would be the very opposite of efficient and effective administration for a facility that is supposed to make people well to make them sick with COVID–19.

Meanwhile, health officials and hospitals let COVID-infected staff stay on the job. Why? 

The move is a reaction to the severe hospital staffing shortages and crushing caseloads that the omicron variant is causing....Many hospitals are not only swamped with cases but severely shorthanded because of so many employees out with COVID-19. 

I repeat: "so many employees out with COVID-19." I wonder what the vaccination rates are in those hospitals in California, France, and Rhode Island mentioned in the article. Perhaps 90 to 100 percent? Something to think about before you get a booster. Of course, the shortage of staff has nothing to do with firing staff for refusing an experimental injection. They had to be fired because they can spread COVID. But staff who are infected with COVID apparently can't. 

I hope that's clear--that hospitals and health officials are no longer pretending to follow any kind of science or even common sense. This isn't a recent phenomenon. For decades, health officials have advised diabetics to eat starches at every meal; told tired, cold, depressed thyroid patients that they're fine; dispensed antibiotics like candy; dispensed opioids like candy; and vilified ivermectin as dangerous when it's safer than Tylenol. Something to think about before you take some pills or have a procedure.

Fasting blood sugar & insulin have crept up!

It's pretty bad when even conventional medicine thinks your blood sugar is high. I had lab tests done last week, as I do every year, and saw things were going in the wrong direction. Photo from Pixabay . Uh-oh.  Ideal blood sugar is about 70-90. Your blood sugar can be high because you're stressed or ill, but I felt OK. I can't blame it on cortisol, which was smack in the middle of the normal range. And my A1c, which reflects blood sugar over the past few months, shows that whatever is going on has been happening for a while. My insulin is more than double what it should be. Oddly, my triglycerides, which typically indicate carb consumption, were good.  I don't have an explanation for the triglycerides. I should have suspected something was wrong, though. I've felt very tired and a little sad for the past few months. Unlike many people with higher than ideal blood sugar and insulin, I had only gained about three pounds.  Regardless of my good weight and triglyceride...

YouTube invites creators back; says Biden pushed censorship on COVID and politics

Google, which owns YouTube, is inviting back creators it kicked off the platform for content about politics, elections, and COVID.

Infrared Light: How much is too much?

It's the sort of thing that sounds like quackery: a pad with tiny red LED lights and a few buttons that's supposed to help you heal, just $30 on ebay. I never would have bought it, but Dr. Davis gave a presentation on infrared light late in 2024. Since I was still suffering from achilles tendonitis after being floxxed , I decided to try it.  I wrapped it around my ankle and turned it on the lowest setting for five minutes. Nothing seemed to happen, but the next day, I wrote,  My tendonitis is GONE after one 5-minute treatment! I didn’t feel it doing anything, I didn’t think it was going to do anything (at least not that quickly), but for the first time in several months, I’ve gotten out of bed and started walking normally and didn’t have any pain reaching with my left arm. I'd been shuffling around like an 80-year-old woman after getting out of bed in the morning. The tendonitis returned, but it was improved. I eventually had physical therapy for it, and now, apart from a l...
