I am thrilled to announce Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). For too long, Americans have been crushed by the industrial food complex and drug companies who have engaged in deception, misinformation, and disinformation when it comes to Public Health. The Safety and Health of all Americans is the most important role of any Administration, and HHS will play a big role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming Health Crisis in this Country. Mr. Kennedy will restore these Agencies to the traditions of Gold Standard Scientific Research, and beacons of Transparency, to end the Chronic Disease epidemic, and to Make America Great and Healthy Again!

Notice at what point the graph starts to curve upwards…the post-2008 credit crunch and austerity era, so let’s not put the chicken before the egg. An unhealthy environment made disability and sickness worse, not the people themselves.
So @gmcuk was asked to investigate medical malpractice at Harrods during the sex scandal but chose not to - deciding it wasn’t in the public interest to do so.
Clearly my profession’s regulator takes sexual harassment & abuse immensely seriously.

Despite decades of research & huge financial investment, "not a single gene has been found that can be causally linked to schizophrenia". Furthermore, "the research has produced no improvements in treatments." Have we reached an ideological dead end?
