In this episode, we chat about the relentless click bait that is out there confusing the masses about sudden deaths, vaccines and hospitalizations. We remind you to stay the course, ask good questions, if its scary or invokes emotion that is a signal to take a pause, and reach out for help if you are confused by intentionally manipulated information in order to get clicks.
