A respected network of hospitals and cancer centers is halting enrollment in clinical trials for children with brain cancer after the federal government said it would no longer provide funding to the group. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/w...

Don’t you know that cancer treatment is woke? Real Americans just suck it up and let their kids die. Whether from cancer, or measles, or guns.

Fed medical experts, Trump and RFK, don't believe in germ theory of disease or molecular biology. 1) Germ theory of disease gave the world penicillin and polio vaccines. 2) Molecular biology gave the world mRNA. Saved millions from Covid.

In Samuel Butler's satire Erewhon (1872), illness is a crime. Get sick, go to jail. Crime is an illness. Defraud people of their money, and you have to see a psychiatrist. Butler isn't usually thought of as a futurist, but we're headed for something similar to his satire.
