A new Orwellian bill is being proposed in California that will make it illegal for parents to make medical decisions for their own children.  The new SB-18 bill will allow the State to seize children away from their parents and their homes if parents make medical decisions that the State deems not to be in the child’s best interests. Dr. Richard Pan, the man behind the current mandatory vaccination law (SB-277) is behind this new bill which will takes away yet more power from parents.

Scientists have discovered a “new organ” that has been hiding in plain sight inside the human body — just don’t ask them to tell you what purpose it serves. Known as the mesentery, it was previously thought to be just a few fragmented structures. But scientists have now realized it is in fact one, continuous organ. Although its function is still unclear, the discovery opens up “a whole new area of science,” according to J Calvin Coffey, a researcher at the University Hospital Limerick, who first discovered it.

Highlighting what may well be his legislative priority when he takes office in 17 days, Trump tweeted out a pair of one-liners this morning taking aim at Obamacare.  In what appears to be an attempt to set the stage for a repeal, Trump said that "Obamacare just doesn't work, and it is not affordable."

The austerity freezing of hiring (1:7) ended up in severe shortages in medical and paramedical personnel. The sharp expenditure cuts deprive hospitals of spare parts and essential material.
