Well let’s see, stop changing the genetic make up of our food source and maybe diabetes would go away!
Cholesterol-got a drug for that.
Arthritis pain-got a drug for that too.
Hysterectomies were once the thing for every woman, now not so much.
Back surgery even though it is only a 35% qualified success.
Tonsil removal-when I was a kid it was as common as the cold.
ADHD-every kid in scouts was being treated for this 30 years ago when I was a scout leader.
Then it was autism.
High blood pressure- another epidemic, got lots of drugs for that and did anyone notice that the clinical norms kept dropping putting more people at risk?
Now it is type II diabetes- got lots and lots of drugs for that one too now. Each new one more expensive than the last one.
And the grand daddy of them all-COVID, got a vaccine for that one too. Don't need it so much now no matter how hard they push and promote panic.
In this post the lifetime cost of medical insurance is almost a Million dollars. We should officially have the most expensive health care in the world but not the best. I have to remind the doctor and the lab every year what needs to be in my lab work. Doctors and the medical system in this country don't have patients, they have victims.
Just one more thing to add to the list of failures in the late once great USA.
Is Bernie dense? (Rhetorical Q.) Not hard to figure out...kids (& adults) are eating loads more processed “crap’ food loaded with added sugar.
Bernie has always been a grifter for years. He needs to be indicted!
