Appeal Filed in Physicians' Ongoing Lawsuit Against ABIM
"ABIM has created a lucrative new revenue source by forcing internists to buy MOC. The new MOC revenue has not been used in the interests of the internist community, but to serve the economic interests of ABIM management, including overly generous compensation, ABIM ’s lavish pension plan, and purchase of a $2.3 million condominium used by ABIM management."

Two ER Physicians Lend Their Opinion on Reopening the Economy
"Typically you quarantine the sick. When someone has measles you quarantine them. We ’ve never seen where we quarantine the healthy."
"We’ve tested over 4 million… which gives us a 19.6% positive out of those who are tested for COVID-19. So if this is a typical extrapolation 328 million people times 19.6 is 64 million. That’s a significant amount of people with COVID; it’ s similar to the flu. If (Source: Dr. Wes)

Rethinking the COVID-19 "Pandemic"
The front page headline of the Wall Street Journal this morning read: "Stocks Rally in Face of Downturn."
Why?
Perhaps they know something we don't? Or have we been too manipulated by fear to look critically at what has just happened thanks to a little-known RNA virus?
