#149 When the tough get going…

One of our staff retirees, now on Medicare, dropped by recently to tell us that they had just gotten a government email with the headline: Stay healthy with Dr. Oz. “As if” was their succinct response. 

At the same time, those of us still on the payroll have been enjoying the contretemps over the recommendations against vaccines from Professor Bobby’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention—or Tinfoil Hat Central, as they are also known. The American Academy of Pediatrics, which actually know what they’re talking about,  released its own recommendations in favor of vaccines, including Covid-19 shots for infants and young children. In other words, it’s the anti-science conspiracy theorists versus the doctors, and all we can wonder is, Who you gonna call?
