After US health secretary and hardline anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired all 17 highly respected vaccine experts from the federal Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) last month, he vetted their replacements not by medical and scientific expertise, but by their political leanings, according to a lawsuit filed by medical organizations Monday.

The Absolute was able to remove 68.3% of sand from low-pile and 52% from mid-pile carpets, falling short of many competitors, including the Levoit LVAC-200 and Shar

They’re usually for some very specific messes, so it’s understandable if you don’t have one on hand. Head t
