From the article: "Every year, my colleagues and I put together a list of what we think are the top 10 breakthrough technologies of that year. When it came to innovations in biotech, there was a clear winner: lenacapavir, a drug that was found to prevent HIV infections in 100% of the women and girls who received it in a clinical trial.

You never hear “100%” in medicine. The trial was the most successful we’ve ever seen for HIV prevention. The drug was safe, too (it’s already approved to treat HIV infections). And it only needed to be injected twice a year to offer full protection."

From the article: "A bill that would require Medicaid to cover all FDA-approved HIV antivirals has seen early success in the Washington state legislature, most recently being unanimously passed by the Senate's Health & Long-Term Care Committee meeting on February 13. But with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s recent confirmation as the Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary, primary bill sponsor Sen. Marko Liias (D-21) is ready to fight like hell to ensure that Washingtonians have access to this life-saving medication."

Just curious what people here are thinking.

Are you stockpiling food and household goods in anticipation of future political and supply chain problems?

If it's just food or just goods but not food, tell me in the comments. Or if you don't want to say it's you, just say you know someone who is.

Boosts appreciated!
