It's designed to stop wrinkles in middle-age – but Botox could also protect people from catching Covid, according to a French study.

But experts described the study as being 'extremely poor' and insisted that it proved nothing about whether Botox had any promise in the fight against Covid.

More than one million Britons get Botox injections every year, and the procedure is even more common in the US.

I don’t know. I do know a fellow who had a severe nerve disorder causing constant facial spasms after a spider bite in TN. They treated him with botox, it helped him a lot.

Darn! Bela Pelosi will be with us forever!

At her 100th birthday celebration Speaker Pelosi marks the occasion quietly with friends at a top ranked restaurant. "Most of my old friends are gone now but I carry on" Pelosi said, finishing with a Dove Bar. Fourth Term President Ocasio-Cortez gave her a hug as VP Chelsea Clinton fought back a tear.

True. I beg your pardon. Later legislation states that like Obamacare and other rules, ruling elites are exempt from all mask laws.

The covid obsession in the media has jumped the shark long ago, but it still keeps shambling on like a zombie. Eventually every product imaginable will be floated as a possible treatment.
