Nothing is a greater threat to "community wellness" than the commie Democrats and their woke agenda.
Just curious, not a scientific pol. Would you rate that threat higher or lower than Islam? I have previously voted but I would be interested to know your stance?
There is plenty of food they sell that us bad for your health.
The youth are vapping by a huge amount. They don’t seem interested in smoking cigarettes. People will find other avenues to smoke. Marajuana is going up and will continue.

I read all these horror stories and statistics about smoking. You’d think that people are dropping like flies with piles of corpses everywhere with black tar oozing from their mouths. In my 75 years I have personally known only maybe 3 people to die of lung cancer. One never smoked once in her life. I find this interesting.
No one I know died of covid either. Most people who died that I know of died of old age. And cars. Cars may be the greatest danger of all. Certainly they top cigarettes. Maybe Walmart should shut down it’s gas stations.
