Just, wow!
The bad news for the nascent COVID-19 industry just keep piling on. Just a a few hours ago I posted about the J&J vaccine trial put on hold, and this was the second (out of 4 total) human trials put on hold.
Another COVID-19 Vaccine Trial Halted Due To Serious Side Effects
Now, we...
At this point, two out of the four Phase III human clinical trials for COVID-19 vaccine have been halted due to safety concerns as a result of serious adverse events (SAE) in the active group(s). Here is the thread about the other one being halted.

As many forum users may have noticed, there has been a dramatic increase in celebrities announcing they or a loved one have been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). The condition affects the central and peripheral nervous system and can lead to profound muscle weakness requiring the use of...
...targeting the genitals, of all places. The warning FDA issued is for drugs used to artificially lower blood glucose levels in patients with type II diabetes. The list includes blockbuster drugs like Invokana, Jardiance, etc. The drugs works by forcing the kidneys to excrete glucose extracted...
While the study is nothing new for the forum users here, what makes it important is that it is the largest study ever and includes reviewing all the available literature on the topic to date. The conclusion - not only are SSRI drugs ineffective but their risks far outweigh even the (mostly)...
Not that this is anything new, but one of the shocking findings of the study is that officially prescribed, approved drugs are the 3rd leading cause of death in UK, after cancer and CVD. But given that many of the cancer and CVD cases may very well be caused by these same drugs, the scary truth...

The FDA just released a statement requiring the insanely expensive hepatitis C drug to carry a blackbox warning or potentially deadly side effect - initiation or recurrence of hepatitis B infection. I always knew something was not right about this drug. The company was very hush-hush on the...
There has been a great deal of controversy in regards to the effects of aspirin on the GI tract. Most sources of "common" medical knowledge claim that aspirin is very bad for the GI tract, while Ray has claimed that is not true and sometimes even the opposite.
This study claims that aspirin...
The study said that vitamin D levels above 100nmol/L were associated with higher risk from CVD and stroke. I don't have access to the study so I don't know what the mortality was from in the low ranges. Presumably, the higher than optimal vitamin D levels probably caused arterial calcification...
This database was put together by the group that published the study on how anti-psychotic drugs are mostly useless for the symptoms of the disease they are prescribed for and also create a state of learned hopelessness. For a horror-story, do a search for any of the SSRI drugs and look at the...
Some people have trouble taking aspirin even in small doses. Most often they get symptoms like tinnitus, GI discomfort, nervous system overexcitement, etc. It just happens that glycine (and also taurine) happen to help with all of these symptoms. So, I did some digging and it looks like aspirin...
