    The more melanin a person has the less D their skin makes per same time of exposure. That explains the minority differences. My wife's son is a doctor. He specifically told us to t…

    Only if you're a fascist. Yes, fascists have logic, it's just predicated upon poor foundations. So long as the person does not intentionally go out WHILE BEING CONTAGIOUS they have…

    But when the consensus is based upon for-profit goal-seeking corps that have engaged in successful regulatory capture, it is your duty to question it. Why, pray tell, are the US's …

    Depends on the doctor, depends on the situation. I did, you should note, get told not to come back to a doctor's group -- after a single visit to establish a PCP -- for quote "aski…

    Your biases are so ingrained you don't even realize them. Yes, I am biased against for-profit corps. Which one, especially among the pharmas, do you trust? No, this is not my gut, …
