Same Doctor Visit, Double the Cost / WSJ
Just another example of the crazy billing environment for medicine in the US. From the WSJ: “After David Hubbard underwent a routine echocardiogram at his cardiologist’s office last year, he was surprised to learn that the heart scan cost his insurer $1,605. That was more than four times the $373 it paid when the 61-year-old…
FBI lab reports on anthrax attacks suggest another miscue/ McClatchy
McClatchy’s Greg Gordon has written another excellent piece on the anthrax letters. The focus this time is on the silicon and tin added to the spore prep, and how the FBI resolutely failed to investigate them as a means of solving the case: The existence of the silicon-tin chemical signature offered investigators the possibility of…
David Kelly, ten years on: A spectacular failure of accountability / New Statesman
I have reprinted in full a piece from today’s New Statesman about the death of David Kelly and the surprising calls from prominent liberal members of the media to “let it be”–denying the many questions regarding cause of death and how Kelly’s death related to the (false) justification for the Iraq war. The ten year…
Medical Research: An Ethical Breakdown / NYT Editorial
From today’s NY Times on yet another medical research project (performed at 23 top academic medical centers) that was done sloppily, missing a standard-care arm, and failed to provide truly informed consent… performed on unconsenting very low birthweight newborns, who were at extremely high risk of a bad outcome, but who might also lead a normal…

Pertussis (whooping cough) epidemics continue to increase in the US, with 50,000 recorded cases this year. Most people who got pertussis have been fully vaccinated.

Jordan Grumet: I Have to Admit It: I Don’t Love Being a Doctor Any More
Here is a short article, by a doctor I don’t know, which explains how the medical ‘system’, which changed during the Obama administration with a bucketload of new demands, has ruined the profession of medicine for doctors, and brought it to its knees for patients.–Meryl I’ll never leave, but the joy is gone, says Jordan…

I watched it live.
A few take aways:
0] USA and other said the WHO has found no problems and is not aware of any; meaning WHO is the referee, from this perspective.
1] Mexico pointed out [as did China] there is no "multi-lateral" regime in place to fairly and justly: investigate and adjudicate weapons of mass destruction issues, period. [Of which bio weapons secretly via US and military proliferating in Ukraine is latest problem, they said.]
2]Russia said they told UNSC March 7,days before alleged "hospital bombing" in Mariupol that building was evacuated and being used by Ukraine forces; and said a landmine exploded in vicinity of the building, and the building was not blown up, there was no dead and interior in many places untouched.
3] Ukraine said it was bombed and the hospital was destroyed.
4] China: biological weapons and weapons of mass destruction in Ukraine should trigger great concern.
5] US denied everything and refused to engage any substance. And the WHO said nothing to see here according to US.
6] Ireland "deeply regrets" "baseless claims against United States"
7] US repeatedly used word "Disinformation" — China "too has been spreading misinformation" and US said Russia called UNSC meeting for "sole purpose of spreading lies and misinformation"
8]Russia: "there was no international control" of WMDs in Ukraine
9] Mexico: "WHO has no knowledge of anything" viz. "biological weapons" in Ukraine. "There is no external mechanism in place" to verify anything.
10] China: if US believes information is fake, then provide us with relevant data so international community can make determination.
11] Russia: US did not address the substance, indicating a "guilty mind. . . we hit the nail on the head when we were talking about nefarious activity"
The UNSC meeting 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., March 11 2022
