It feels like a lifetime since the COVID-19 pandemic first started. I currently look after my parents here in University Place—both of whom are in their 80s. Taking care of my parents during a pandemic had been stressful and frightening. The COVID experience has given me a newfound appreciation for innovation for medicines and pharmaceutical work that my dad did for years. Even though these vaccines may have been developed in less than a year’s time, they are really a result of decades of investment and work by my dad and companies where he worked. My family was able to get vaccinated and also receive all of the boosters available and they have offered us protection against the virus and subsequent variants.
Congress is working to lower drug prices, which is very important to all of us but, we need to appreciate and support innovation in the biotech and pharmaceutical industry. My dad was a chemist and the research and development for new drugs and treatments for events like a multi-years long pandemic(!) seems to be lost in the messaging by leaders. Thanks.

It is unwise to ignore the data that is emerging, regarding the ill effects of these experimental injections.
Many who received them are no longer anything but a statistic.
Many of these “statistics” would have recovered with proven theraputics, which were denied by the government experts.
That these experts got it so wrong on so many levels, with such catastrophic consequence, is astonishing given the trust we placed in them and the financing to be prepared.
The medical and scientific community has irreparably destroyed its credibility.
Only time will show how this reckless experiment on humanity plays out, while secret labs play with the next mutation.

What exactly did they get wrong?
