Nah man, the "science" changed, again... Aspirin is just too cheap for anyone to make anything off of...


But the science of climate change is “settled”.

How many people have bled out, like a hemophiliac, from daily aspirin?

If you are having a hemorrhagic stroke ( brain bleed in the brain stem) the last thing you want is something that is thinning the blood.

I have chronically low platelets. Really, really low. My liver doc is constantly worried I'm going to bleed out.

I would say, yes they were, but that doesn't mean there wasn't still frickery afoot here with this timing.

Just a week ago it was revealed daily low dose Aspirin may prevent Covid infection


To be fair this could be because people who care about their health enough to take low dose aspirin are healthier than your average person

More useless gov't.


imagine how many of these 'task force' groups we are funding at this point.

"The initial USPSTF was created in 1984 as a 5 year appointment to "develop recommendations for primary care clinicians on the appropriate content of periodic health examinations." This initial 5 year project concluded in 1989 with the release of their report, the Guide to Clinical Preventive Services. In July 1990, the Department of Health and Human Services reconstituted the Task Force to continue and update these scientific assessments of preventive services." wikipedia

Weird. Last statistics I saw claimed to reduce the heart attack rate by up to %40.

Look at any government recommendation on food consumption in the past 60 years.

It is to the point where Woody Allen was making jokes about it in Sleeper, in 1970, about how technology in the future will declare that bacon, chocolate fudge, etc, are now considered health food as opposed to wheat germ, tiger’s milk, etc.
