Nineteen states—California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Washington, and Wisconsin—announced they will not adopt the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s revised, slimmer childhood vaccine schedule issued on January 5. The states cited concerns over what they described as potential coercion in vaccination policies. State officials emphasized maintaining broader protection against diseases like rotavirus and hepatitis A to prevent outbreaks.

In another development, the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear Bayer’s appeal in cases alleging that its Roundup weedkiller causes cancer, focusing on whether federal pesticide law preempts state failure-to-warn claims. The case arises from a Missouri verdict awarding $1.25 million to a plaintiff diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, amid approximately 65,000 similar suits. Bayer argues that the Environmental Protection Agency’s approval of labels without cancer warnings bars additional state requirements. Bayer states that decades of studies deem glyphosate safe despite the following report as covered in December 5, 2025’s Daily Digest:

A 2000 study, which the Environmental Protection Agency had cited to conclude that glyphosate does not cause cancer, has been retracted following evidence of fraud, including ghostwriting by Monsanto.

Bayer has settled prior cases for $10 billion but continues to face litigation, with mixed trial outcomes including a $2.1 billion award in Georgia in 2025. Plaintiffs contend that Bayer’s marketing failed to disclose cancer risks supported by international studies classifying glyphosate as probably carcinogenic.

Lastly, the Food and Drug Administration removed web content stating that cellphone radio frequency energy poses no health risks. The Department of Health and Human Services, under Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has launched a study on the effects of electromagnetic radiation. Kennedy has cited potential harms such as tumors and neurological damage and has advocated precautions including the use of speakerphone. He previously litigated against phone companies and supported restrictions on cellphones in schools. The Federal Communications Commission maintains its position that there is no link to cancer, consistent with the National Cancer Institute. Mainstream reports claim scientific consensus from large epidemiological studies has found no conclusive link between cellphone use and health issues like cancer.

I don't think my Doctor knew. SHe took the clot shot and the boosters. Gave them to her kids. She thought I was crazy for refusing the shot. When I went to her to get stitches in a cut as couple of years later she told me not to mention Covid! Kek
