1422760410676011016 | Joseph Mercola just announced that he is removing all his blogs from his website. We profiled him last week, as the WH and others have cited a report which names as a top spreader of Covid misinformation. https://t.co/PcvrDQs33t | 321 |

1464397891263352834 | I just bought a multi-pack of at-home Covid antigen tests I spotted as a Black Friday deal. This moment encapsulates everything that is wrong with this year, the American healthcare system, and Black Friday. | 1629 |
