It serves no one when unwilling to read and hear and truly study the facts, some adamantly digging one\u2019s heels, blindly advocating personal freedom and unjust big pharmaceutical\u2019s profits etc. Those points &#8211; are just a distraction to the bigger problem and distracts from tending to the real and immediate threat to solve the huge public health challenge at hand. We need a United front against this public health menace and enemy that looms over us daily. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/wagayoga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_9673.jpg\" data-id=\"28865\" class=\"wp-image-28865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wagayoga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_9673.jpg 600w, https:\/\/wagayoga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/img_9673-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So it\u2019s my third appointment with an acupuncture doctor.
