I’ve found the perfect vegan egg mayonnaise, thanks to Lupi, from Yellow Sunshine spinoff of New Roots yellowsunshine.ch/project/vega...

The texture of Lupi is the perfect substitute for hard-boiled eggs 🥚 - much better than tofu

Highly recommended

They are using this as an excuse to fire even more of our best, most dedicated scientists, researchers, and civil servants.
They do this because they do not believe in science, and they do not genuinely care about the health of America.

We have breaking news in Inside Medicine.

We had heard rumors of RIFs to CDC.

But this is the first visual confirmation that it has occurred tonight, and at high levels in the agency.

Stammt #Covid aus einem chinesischen Labor oder entstand das Coronavirus durch natürliche Übertragung vom Tier auf den Menschen? In den USA glauben zwei Drittel der Leute, dass Covid aus dem Labor kam. In Europa dürfte es ähnlich sein. Kein Wunder: Die Medien ...

Eine dunkle Vermutung über Corona grassiert – und ist so ansteckend wie das Virus

Zunehmend berichten auch seriöse Medien über die sogenannte Laborthese. Demnach wurde der Erreger künstlich hergestellt. Was ist an der These dran?

@peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social “argued that the call to split vaccines is part of a broader campaign to discredit vaccinations.”

The assault on #MMR continues the long reach of fraudulent piece, which the Lancet should never have published and took too long to retract
