It is thought that the increased rate of mutation of mpox is related to something called
“host (us) APOBEC3”.
Inflammation activates APOBEC3.
COVID-19 induces inflammation.
Severe C19 is associated with increased APOBEC levels.
Needs more investigation of course…

The treatment of Jasmine Crockett vs. Graham Platner reminds me of the line from the movie A Bronx Tale: “They want you to do well, just never better than them.” Remember that.

This new Politico poll should stop us all in our tracks!
50% of Americans are struggling to afford groceries, let’s start there. Then add the fact that we have a president who thinks we’re lying about it.
I’m just waiting for the next poll that asks, “Does the president care about people like me?”

Some things, believe it or not, shouldn’t be commodified by the free market.
Did you know that before Nixon and Reagan, health insurance companies in America were non-profit? Yep, they screamed about "socialized medicine" and gradually shifted the focus of our entire healthcare system from public welfare to... making bucks off illness.
