  The NIH plans to defund the WHI, the largest clinical trial ever for women that was meant to catch up on missed research. This study has been a fountain of knowledge. The hatred of women from this administration is really from cradle to grave.

  Dear Misogynists, stop pretending to be doctors

  If covid isn’t a big deal — according to the current White House — why are they getting vaccinated first?
