Pet vaccine revolt

Over half of dog owners now believe vaccines are unsafe for their pets, which is likely fallout from vaccine hesitancy bred during the pandemic. In addition, almost 40% of dog owners worry vaccines could lead to “canine autism.” The study was conducted by researchers at Boston University. The full study can be found here.

Unclaimed bodies in Texas medical schools

An increasing number of dead bodies are used in Texas medical schools, according to a recent survey. From 2017 to 2021 totals jumped from 64 bodies to 446 bodies. The practice is legal in most counties and states with New York being the exception.

The Food and Drug Administration has approved multiple generic forms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) medication Vyvanse. It is approved for patients six years and older and for adults with binge eating disorder (BED). The medication will be available in chewable tablets and capsules.
