Reaching out here because I haven't had any luck with search engines like google. I can no longer go to the free clinic thats near me to get my medications and the walkin clinics are ridiculously expensive. All I need is a doc to look at my medical history and medications and approve a refill. The meds are really cheap and I can handle the $15/mo cost but they want $165 just to acknowledge my existence at the walk-in clinic here. Appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.

Jill Biden is pounding the pavement in two different states this weekend to boost embattled Dems days before the crucial Nov. 8 midterm elections — while her husband, President Biden, takes it easy at their Delaware home. The first lady’s role as a campaign surrogate has grown this election season as some Democrats seek to keep the president, and his poor 43% approval rating, at arm’s length. On Saturday, the first lady was in New Hampshire, where she’s assisting Sen. Maggie Hassan, a first-term Democrat sweating out an increasingly competitive race against GOP challenger Don Bolduc. Hassan — who defeated...

One of Israel’s top vaccine advisers has revealed he and his colleagues were “surprised and disappointed” by one element of the jab rollout. Israel, with a population of just 9.4 million, led the world in vaccination against Covid-19 early, starting its rollout in December 2020. In April 2021, Pfizer chief executive Albert Bourla said early trial data showed its vaccine “was 100 per cent effective against severe Covid-19”. “Did you expect the vaccines to be better at preventing transmission than they were?” host Freddie Sayers asked Prof Cohen. “Yes … especially based on what we had seen in March, in...

A U.S. Army major doctor and his physician wife have been charged with a criminal plot to give confidential medical information related to members of the U.S. military and their spouses to the Russian government. The couple, Major Jamie Lee Henry and anaesthesiologist Anna Gabrielian, were named in a federal indictment unsealed Thursday in U.S. District Court in Baltimore, Maryland, charging them with conspiracy to disclose health information.

Elite medical schools are deliberately recruiting woke activists, jeopardizing their mission of training physicians. That’s what our organization found in a review of the application process for America’s top 50 medical schools. Nearly three-quarters of these institutions — and 80% of the top 10 — ask applicants about their views on diversity, equity, inclusion, anti-racism and other politicized concepts. The clear goal is to find the students who will best advance divisive ideology, not provide the best care to patients. We based our review on the 2023 “Best Medical Schools” rankings by US News and World Report. We then looked...

Does this seem normal to you? Have you ever heard of seven doctors dead in a 14-day period (from July 13 through July 28)? How about five dead doctors in a few days, in one city (Toronto)? How about 14 dead doctors in the past nine months? And these dead doctors were mostly YOUNG. Do these headlines catch your attention? Because they're all true. Confirmed. Fact. It all just happened in Canada, a small country of 30 million (one-tenth the size of America). In Canada they're obsessed with the COVID-19 vaccine. The government is ruthless to the point of appearing...

Physician, lawyer, mother, and founder of America’s Frontline Doctors (AFLDS) Simone Gold is serving a 60-day prison sentence for a nonviolent misdemeanor — unlawful entry to and remaining in a restricted area of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper also ordered her to pay a $9,500 fine, and she will remain on federally supervised release for one year following her prison term. She described her arrest days after the January 6 incident as a “violent assault,” saying that an “FBI SWAT team raided my home with assault rifles and a battering ram.” She...

Austrian President Alexander Van der Bellen praised the doctor as a great healer and called out those who had...

The fifth GTA doctor to die in July “radiated positivity” and “lived a vibrant and active life.” But what the world lost in the sudden and tragic death of Dr. Candace Nayman was a woman who had dedicated her life to the health of children. The 27-year-old, who was a resident doctor at McMaster Children Hospital in Hamilton, collapsed while swimming as she competed in a triathlon on Sunday. She subsequently died on Thursday. Friends kept an around-the-clock prayer vigil for the much-loved Nayman who lost her fight and, at her request, had her organs donated to help others. She...

**SNIP** "Biden was on TV again, making crazy statements and concerning mental gaffes; he didn’t know what state he was in or what office he was campaigning for," Jackson recalls of the 2020 campaign season. "He apparently thought at one point that he was running for the Senate and later couldn’t remember what state he was campaigning in. This had been going on for months and was getting worse." For years, the media had accused Trump of being mentally unwell, and in 2018 many commentators mocked Jackson for saying that a cognitive evaluation Trump had taken showed he was in...

CHICAGO (CBS) -- With the holiday weekend upon us along with a surge in COVID-19 cases, we're all asking the same questions: Should we gather? and if we do, should it be outside? and what about masks?

“Children have had no voice or vote, regarding their potential Covid vaccination. Children depend entirely on their parents to make a well-informed and wise decision. Ethically, experimental pharmaceutical products, particularly experimental vaccines that have been rushed into use before adequate testing for safety could be completed, must not be administered to anyone, particularly children, without adequate informed consent.” – Dr. Robert RennebohmIn March Dr. Robert Rennebohm, an American paediatrician with nearly 50 years of experience, penned an extensive open letter to parents and paediatricians regarding Covid “vaccinations” for children. At the end of his 119-page letter, he lists over 1,000...

Some lunatic MSNBC doctor wants everyone to carry around masks and badger others to wear them. This Dr. Patel also appears to advise mask bullies to use lies about elderly mothers and cancerous children as emotional blackmail. This is the latest “crazy” response (the doctor’s word, not mine) to a federal judge in Florida finally putting an end to the anti-science mask mandate demanded by the fascist, unelected bureaucrats at the CDC.

The White House on Monday said it was “disappointing” that a federal judge ruled against the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) mandate for all people to wear masks on public transportation. “This is obviously a disappointing decision,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said during the daily briefing on Monday in reaction to the ruling.
