I've had three older patients in the last few months fall for the deep fake videos of Dr Gupta hawking memory supplements. Two I only caught during a more in depth med Rec and got them to bring it up. Are other people seeing this?

A mother and her 15 year old autistic son are reunited after nearly 50 days apart. Emmanuel Garcia went missing, and rather than check missing person’s reports, Houston PD called ICE. ICE sent him to the Office of Refugee Resettlement and his mom has been fighting to get him back ever since.

Home invasions. Child sex crimes. Homicide. Just a couple things that some of the 1500+ January 6 defendants have been convicted of since Trump released them back onto our streets. The GOP isn't the party of law and order. They're the party of lawlessness and violence.

Is health insurance a matter of life and death? Scientists may have an answer.
The surprisingly tricky question stumped researchers for decades. But they think they finally have an answer.

What is the best way to get a patient with no insurance (but eligible for part d) basal/bolus insulin at an affordable price? They can't afford the penalty with d, don't qualify for medicaid or extra help and they don't qualify for PAP It seems like the $35 programs don't apply?
