This probably means Canada too and New Brunswick next door in particular.

Something else the antivaxxers will whine about, now if they could just come up with a vaccine against stupidity... I can see future judges ordering vaccines, in red states.

The jab or jail, this is drugs, not covid and there will be no religious objections, most likely to happen in red states though. Realistically speaking, if it works, it will save a lot of lives by removing the monkey on their backs. I dunno what the stats are, but for say every 100 addicts with fentanyl around, how many will survive 5 years, or even two?

Oh. I was thinking about the stupid vaccine.

Canadian news. Here this will become real news when the two parties start blaming each other. I hope it's a short-term problem but it can't be ignored. I couldn't read the article.

Astute and the hypcorisy easily covered by pol non-vaxxers because they can give data to prove it saves money and lives as if pandemic restrictions didn't. They will proclaim themselves economic and health saving heroes, not at all like the evil party.
But I don't care how it's done or who gets credit, get it done ASAP if this is true.
Also who do you think should pay for this?

Society already pays, so it's a no brainer, it doesn't cure opioid addiction, but it does protect people from the worst consequences of it somewhat. If most of the shit on the street is fentanyl, they will get no joy from it. Not the kind of vaccines you want to give to school kids or even to the public, it's more like a treatment, as are some anti-cancer vaccines being developed. Unless they want to be free, it will probably do little good, as they will seek out natural alternatives, but they are rare in many places and fentanyl is plentiful and cheap to make.
I agreed to an interview with a reporter from The Coloradan regarding my experience with a .org program. They are a Rightie newspaper here; when she told me where she was from I laughed and she quickly said 'no they're changing and not what you think'.
I spent 90 minutes over the phone, the bulk of which centered on 'how you came to need the service?'..I in no uncertain terms gave her the story; she couldn't type fast enough peppered with a few 'OMGs I can't believe you went through that'.
She was happy..struck gold with my story..then came her Editor who schooled her on Rightiedom.
She texted me that she was sorry but would not be able to print what I told her; they wanted a few pieces but not the whole. She therefore declined to submit any contribution from me based on their cherry picking.

These are the most overweight states in the US
West Virginia is the most overweight and obese state in the country, according to a new report from WalletHub.
It’s followed by Mississippi, Kentucky, Arkansas and Alabama, respectively.
CDC data show that nearly three quarters of U.S. adults aged 20 or older are overweight, while 42 percent are obese. Rates have also been rising in recent years, putting a strain on the country’s health system.
Researchers at WalletHub compiled the list based on 31 metrics grouped into three categories: obesity and overweight prevalence; health consequences; and food and fitness. These categories included factors like rates of sugary beverage consumption among adolescents and obesity-related health care costs.
Tennessee, Louisiana, Delaware, Oklahoma and South Carolina rounded out the top 10 most overweight and obese states. In contrast, Colorado ranked as the least overweight and obese state, along with Utah, the District of Columbia, Massachusetts, and Hawaii.
Findings are similar to a previous WalletHub analysis, ranking the most and least healthy states in the country. That list ranked Washington, Massachusetts, Utah and Vermont at the top and found states concentrated in the southeast were the least healthy overall.
The CDC defines being overweight as having a body mass index (BMI) between 25 and 30. A BMI of 30 or higher is considered obese. However, some experts argue BMI is not the best way to gauge body fat because it cannot differentiate between bone density, muscle mass, and body fat.
Based on the percentage of overweight adults alone, the top five states were Wyoming; New Jersey; Arizona; California; and Tennessee. The percentage of obese adults was highest in West Virginia; Alabama; Kentucky; Oklahoma; and Mississippi. New York and Ohio were tied for the highest percentage of overweight children.
Overweight and obesity are key risk factors for poor health outcomes including diabetes, heart disease, and chronic kidney disease, among other serious conditions. Overweight and obese individuals are also at an increased risk of all-cause mortality.
It’s estimated obesity costs the health care system around $173 billion each year, while the growing prevalence has led to a spike in profits for the weight loss and diet industries.
Both environmental and genetic factors contribute to being overweight and obese, while numerous social determinants of health have been linked with varying rates among different demographic groups.
But increasing consumption of healthy food can help reverse trends, as can boosting physical activity. According to data from the Physical Activity Council, over 70 million Americans aged 6 and older were entirely inactive in 2021.

I walk everywhere living downtown and enjoy exercise with fresh mountain air. I have a dog and he gets 3 walks a day. We socialize and make friends. Now that the midterms are over people are smiling and saying 'hi' again. It feels wonderful not to have that heaviness on you. You actually feel happy because others are. I also bike and have a little cart for my dog. The Fort is bike city with UCS..everyone bikes here. I love it! I eat keto that was developed by a hospital for my illness. There's a crew machine downstairs and I'm in great physical shape as a result. I do kettle bell in my apartment.These are the most overweight states in the US

I like to focus on solutions, and for this is one, meditation is the premier treatment for depression today, MBCT is the leading therapy and with most people it addresses the root causes. Stress levels in kids have been going through the roof these past decades and it tracks with the rise of technology, recently it has become acute. They actually lose touch with their bodies in a fundamental way, the online world causes us to live in our minds and disconnects us from our senses. This is very important for emotional health as it allows us to be in touch with the feelings that drive our higher social emotions and thoughts. Depression is a social/emotional disorder, it involves our relationship with ourselves and others.
There are other mindful school programs, but I like this one and it is the most professional IMHO. Have a look and promote mindful schools in your area or support those there.
