Bari Weiss' decision to be 'done' with Covid is a slap in the face to health care workers
https://edition.cnn.com/2022/01/28/opinions/bari-weiss-bill-maher-done-with-covid-horton/index.html
In all fairness, Weiss is hardly the first person I have heard say they are done with the pandemic. I hear it almost every day from colleagues, resident doctors, nurses and medical students. Some of them are weeping when they say it. Some seem like shadows of themselves and are now under the care of psychiatrists and therapists. Many more are suffering without treatment. They have not had time to watch "Tiger King," or to listen to Spotify. They too would like to change the channel. But they have been too busy intubating, palliating, showing up day after day to do the hard things people do for one another in health care. They are anxious and depressed, without a way to "end it." It is awful. They are done. But many politicians and health care systems exploited the good, decent instincts of health care workers before the pandemic, and that phenomenon will probably never end.

Fact Check-No reliable evidence that Rife machines cure cancer
https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-rife-cancer-idUSL1N2OZ166
An American scientist did not create a machine that cures all cancers, Cancer Research UK told Reuters.
Rumours that Doctor Raymond Rife created a device in the early 20th century that could cure “over 5,000 diseases including all cancers” popped up online this month via a meme that asked: “WHY AREN’T WE USING THIS?” (here).
Similar statements appeared on Twitter (here) and the same image can be found on Instagram as far back as 2019 (here).
