Maybe not young, but too young to die of a treatable cancer.

Christ, he's so young to die of a treatable cancer.

Fascists deliberately create chaos so they can try to sell you the idea that they're the only ones who can end the chaos.

That is already illegal. Prior auth was not a necessary intervention for this problem.

What a beautiful thing

Oh man, there's a name I haven't heard in almost two decades. Back in the day when I was home shopping in Ohio, I had the misfortune of witnessing multiple Arbor Homes with basement floor joists 22" on center instead of 16. Funny how many of them had the identical hole in the first story floor in the identical spot right at the bottom of the stairs leading to the second story.

This is not something I had ever thought about before and I am also fascinated.

Because I think quality of presentation is not being factored into the assessments you're seeing on that wiki.

I tend to recommend Healthline to the public because it clearly targets a lay audience, and chooses to meet that audience where they live. It's written the way I talk to my patients, and the information is accurate and accessibly easier to read.

Just look at the difference between the pages on hypertension from Healthline and MedlinePlus:

https://www.healthline.com/health/high-blood-pressure-hypertension

https://medlineplus.gov/highbloodpressure.html

The details and accuracy of the information is not different. But the way Healthline presents it is so much more accessible.

The best thing to happen from WebMD is we got a bunch of actual medical providers like Mayo Clinic, University of Maryland, Merck Manual that went, "GAH! No!!" and made actually informative, updated medical websites.

Healthline, kids. Healthline is where we go for our medical information.

no illicit drugs were present

I'm deeply afraid that this might have turned out differently if she had even something as simple as cannabis in her system.

That was during wartime and it was a court martial. Courts martial are still notoriously harsher than civil courts today.
