Let’s get real: Assumed med school COA = ~$350,000. New federal limit = $200,000. So where’s the extra $150,000 coming from? PRIVATE LOANS. With rates that’ll make you nauseous.

Great new result: Across a period of 24 years, in a sample of 1.2 million kids, cumulative aluminum exposure from vaccines had no significant, positive relationships with any chronic disease. There's not even an association to worry about!
