The United States Preventive Services Task Force plays an important role in protecting access to low-cost or free cancer screenings and tests for chronic diseases.
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering removing all 16 members of a highly influential advisory committee that offers guidance about preventive health services, such as cancer screenings, HIV prevention medications or tests for osteoporosis, according to two people familiar with the plan.
The United States Preventive Services Task Force is a group of independent doctors, nurses and public health experts who volunteer to regularly review volumes of the latest scientific research about diseases, such as diabetes, obesity, heart disease and mental health, as well as mammograms for breast cancer.
Don’t worry, I’m sure he’s going to immediately replace them with 16 highly qualified influencers who think you can cure cancer with apple cider vinegar and an all fruit diet.
Apple cider vinegar in woo, that made me think of those chemtrail idiots who think that you can combat contrails by pouring apple cider vinegar on their driveway…
Apple cider vinegar isn’t woo by default, it’s just part of a long list of materials used in folk and home remedies that dipshits latch onto. You can use fishing line and a sewing needle to patch someone up in a pinch, but that doesn’t mean it’s better than just getting stitched up at the ER or urgent care.
Also doesn’t help that vinegar has a broad but limited number of applications, everything from nausea to sunburns but well thats because of its chemical properties not some stupid woo magic BS. Also a good chunk of time any vinegar will do fine doesn’t matter if it’s from cider, potato, or rice, I don’t get the obsession with apple cider vinegar.
