Robert Redfield, the former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), says he's unpersuaded by recent reporting that raccoon dogs at a wet market in Wuhan, China, may have launched the COVID-19 pandemic.

"I think it's important, first, they didn't show the raccoon dogs were actually infected," said Redfield in an interview on Rising, the YouTube show I host for The Hill. "What they showed is they could have DNA from raccoon dogs on swabs that also had the COVID-19 virus. It's not unusual for animals to be infected as opposed to being the intermediate reservoir."     MORE AT Former CDC Director Robert Redfield: 'NIH Leadership Was Antithetical to Science' (reason.com)

EDUCATION ISSUES---TEXAS MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS ASKED TO ROLE-PLAY AS SEDUCING HOOKER IN BIZARRE CLASSROOM GAME

Texas middle school kids asked to role-play as ‘seducing hooker’ in bizarre classroom game: mom

Texas mom Laura Maria Gruber always considered herself a “woke” liberal in favor of progressive causes, even sending her young daughter to a charter school that celebrates “diversity, equity and inclusion,” according to the school’s web site.

But she never thought her 13-year-old would be asked to play a “seducing hooker” in a bizarre classroom game.

“I picked my daughter and her best friend up from school and my daughter said ‘We played this game at school, Mom, and you’re going to be upset,'” Gruber told The Post Saturday from her home in San Antonio.

“When she told me about kids getting up in class and posing as hookers, I almost crashed the car.”  MORE AT Texas mom says her daughter played 'seducing hooker' during school game (nypost.com)

DAVID BELL, YOUR DAUGHTER FOR A RAT?

Your Daughter for a Rat?  BY DAVID BELL MARCH 20, 2023 PUBLIC HEALTH 

There are various degrees of acceptable insanity, but in general you would not want a person who thought a toad had the same intrinsic value as your mother to manage her Alzheimer’s disease. You would not want a person who equated the value of your daughter with that of a rat to decide whether she should be injected with medicine still under trial, such as an mRNA vaccine. Or perhaps you would, as you may agree with the Lancet editorial in January 2023 that equates these, insisting;

“All life is equal, and of equal concern.”
