TUESDAY, Dec. 2, 2014 (HealthDay News) — A nationwide trial of an experimental vaccine using school children as virtual guinea pigs would be unthinkable in the United States today.

But that’s exactly what happened in 1954 when frantic American parents — looking for anything that could beat back the horror of polio — offered up more than 1.8 million children to serve as test subjects. They included 600,000 kids who would be injected with either a new polio vaccine or a placebo. Continue reading “The Salk Polio Vaccine: ‘Greatest Public Health Experiment in History’”

As the Biden administration settles in and begins to formulate its agenda, progressive pundits, politicians, and activists point to California as a role model for national policy. If the administration listens to them, it would prove a disaster for America’s already-beleaguered middle and working classes.

Biden, suggests an ecstatic account in the Los Angeles Times, seeks to “make America California again,” and he will have plenty of help. Californians will run Health and Human Services, the Treasury, Homeland Security, and Energy. Former California senator Kamala Harris is vice president, and San Francisco’s Nancy Pelosi rules the House of Representatives. Progressives like Laura Tyson and Lenny Mendonca see the shift as embracing “California’s distinctive approach to market capitalism.” The Golden State, they insist, can “show the way forward” toward a more socially just future.

Bill and Melinda Gates warn there is the potential for “immunity inequality” if only the wealthiest people across the globe have access to the COVID-19 vaccine.

“Already, wealthy nations have spent months prepurchasing doses of vaccine to start immunizing their people the moment those vaccines are approved,” Melinda Gates wrote in the philanthropists’ annual letter published Wednesday. “But as things stand now, low and middle-income countries will only be able to cover about one out of five people who live there over the next year.” Continue reading “Bill And Melinda Gates Warn Of ‘Immunity Inequality’ As COVID-19 Vaccines Roll Out”

While the executive orders aren’t extended to the whole country, they do count as far more action than President Trump did.
