Scott Horton @robertscotthorton.bsky.social

The Emory shooter was a regular visitor to right-wing social media accounts which persuaded him that the Covid-19 vaccine was to blame for all his personal medical problems. So he took his gun to shoot up the CDC, killing a policeman in the process.

There's a whole world outside the US where publicly funded research is ongoing. Profit motives means priorities can be skewed (ED getting more research funding than malaria, say), but there's nothing to indicate the medical industry is hiding cures to keep profiting from chronic illness.
