Good thread but Jordan’s post is missing bullet points 11-19 and 25-26. Points 11-19 were likely the meat of the post perhaps describing the specific coercive measures the Biden administration took to force the censorship. Maybe Jordan’s post will get picked up elsewhere.

Veracity of the Statement
The statement is partially accurate but misleading and oversimplified. It correctly references a real 2017 update to U.S. blood pressure guidelines that reclassified millions of adults as having hypertension, but it inaccurately describes the change (implying "normal" blood pressure was previously defined as 140/90, which it was not) and exaggerates the implications by suggesting all affected individuals were suddenly "healthy" and funneled into pharmaceutical "customers."
Aspect of Statement	Analysis
Claim: Authorities lowered "normal" blood pressure from 140/90 to 120/80 in 2017	Reality: The hypertension threshold was lowered from 140/90 to 130/80; "normal" blood pressure remained defined as <120/80, consistent with prior guidelines. Accuracy: Misleading. The statement incorrectly suggests "normal" was redefined, when the change actually redefined the threshold for diagnosing hypertension.
Claim: 31 million healthy Americans affected	Reality: Approximately 31 million U.S. adults were reclassified as hypertensive (from "prehypertension" to "stage 1 hypertension") under the new guidelines. However, not all were "healthy," as many had elevated cardiovascular risk; most were recommended lifestyle changes, not medication. Accuracy: Partially true. The number is accurate, but the "healthy" label oversimplifies, as many had pre-existing risk factors.
Claim: Suddenly became "customers" (for pharmaceutical companies)	Reality: About 11 million more adults became eligible for medication, but the guidelines emphasized lifestyle changes (diet, exercise) for most in the new stage 1 category. Medication was recommended primarily for those with high cardiovascular risk. Accuracy: Exaggerated. The "customers" framing implies a profit-driven motive, which is not supported by evidence; the change was based on clinical data.

History of the Statement and Guidelines

The statement likely originated as a viral social media meme around mid-2025, frequently shared in wellness, anti-Big Pharma, or alternative health communities on platforms like Instagram, X, and Facebook. Variations include phrases like "31 million healthy Americans became 'patients'" or "'customers,'" often tied to distrust in medical institutions (e.g., "Trust the science?"). Earlier versions appeared around 2018 but gained traction in 2025 amid discussions on healthcare costs and chronic disease management.

The underlying event is the 2017 ACC/AHA Guideline for the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Management of High Blood Pressure in Adults, issued on November 13, 2017, by the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and American Heart Association (AHA), with endorsements from nine other organizations. This was the first major U.S. update since the 2003 JNC 7 guidelines. Key historical context:

• Pre-2017: Hypertension was defined as ≥140/90; 120-139/80-89 was "prehypertension" (monitor but no automatic treatment).
• The 2017 Update:
  • Eliminated "prehypertension," creating:
  • Elevated: 120-129/<80 (lifestyle focus).
  • Stage 1 Hypertension: 130-139 or 80-89 (lifestyle; meds if high CVD risk).
  • Stage 2 Hypertension: ≥140 or ≥90 (lifestyle + meds).
• By 2018, the change sparked debate, with some critics (e.g., in editorials) calling it "overdiagnosis" due to the population impact. Adoption was widespread in clinical practice by 2019.

Reason Behind the Guideline Change

The update was driven by accumulating scientific evidence showing that even modest elevations in blood pressure (e.g., 130/80) significantly increase cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, and that treating to lower targets saves lives—not to expand markets, as the meme implies. Primary rationales include:

• SPRINT Trial (2015): A landmark NIH-funded study of over 9,000 adults showed that targeting systolic BP <120 mm Hg (vs. <140) reduced heart attacks, strokes, heart failure, and death by 25% in high-risk patients, with benefits outweighing risks like low BP.
• Risk Gradient Data: Meta-analyses confirmed a continuous risk increase starting at 115/75, justifying earlier intervention to prevent the ~93% lifetime hypertension risk for many U.S. adults (e.g., 93% for African Americans by age 45).
• Improved Monitoring: Emphasis on accurate measurement (e.g., averaging multiple readings, using home/ambulatory monitors) to avoid overdiagnosis.
• Public Health Goal: Hypertension affects ~1 in 3 U.S. adults and is the leading preventable CVD cause; the guidelines aim to reduce the 410,000 annual U.S. deaths by promoting prevention and early management, especially in high-risk groups like Black Americans and older adults.

Critics argue it pathologizes normal aging or creates unnecessary anxiety, but major bodies (e.g., AMA, WHO) endorse it, with follow-up studies showing no widespread overprescribing. The "customers" narrative lacks substantiation and echoes similar claims about cholesterol guidelines, often amplified in wellness influencer content.

Trump at UNITED:

His escalator “broke” and his teleprompter “failed.”

He’s socking it to them and outlining all his successes.

Melania had to traipse through stairwells!

United Nations. Ugh!

Wow! Thank you for correcting and clarifying, Foldy!

Soundz like during Obajoemalas time in the white hut every tenured employee got to invite all their close friends/relatives to the FedRes for a “name plate” job.

Fire at least 50% of them.

Better yet, end the Fed (because I know someone wanted to post that)

I’ve used coltsfoot with great success for coughing that won’t stop. Make a very strong tea with loose coltsfoot, simmer for a few minutes with lid on the pot. Drink a few cups a day, hot, with honey if you like.
