MAHA News [5.22] Bioengineered Ticks & Alpha Gal, Ebola/Hanta, Forever Chemicals

from Badlands Media · host Badlands Media

Jordan Sather and Nate Prince dig into a week that felt like a nature documentary gone wrong. Ticks are surging across the Northeast and Midwest, alpha gal syndrome is quietly making red meat allergies a real and growing problem, and a peer reviewed bioethics paper from Western Michigan University actually argues scientists are morally obligated to gene-edit lone star ticks to spread alpha gal and push people away from meat. No, that is not satire. Meanwhile, the WHO and media are still flogging hantavirus and Ebola, and the Trump administration is still not biting. PFAS contamination sits in over 95% of Americans' bloodstreams, and Jordan breaks down where it comes from and how zeolite may help pull it out. RFK scores the largest autism fraud bust in US history, Dr. Oz keeps hammering Medicare and hospice fraud, and TrumpRx quietly adds 600 more generic drugs. Big pharma is apparently starting to sweat, with mass layoffs hitting Pfizer, Merck, Novo Nordisk, and more.
