Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

Just spoke with my CDC sources. They were in tears. Budgets cut. RFJK has ordered them not to publicize bird flu symptoms in exposed workers. Not to test them. Not to speak. They know people are getting sick. And they’re being forced to stay silent. This is not just a cover-up. It's cruelty.

Terrifying News: A hepatitis C outbreak strikes Florida, and the U.S. government shuts down the only CDC lab capable of testing the samples. This isn’t a mistake it’s political negligence putting lives at risk. We need leaders who act now and prioritize health. We need accountability and answers.
