Headlines saying CRISPR ends HIV permanently are misleading. Trials show promise but HIV still returns when treatment stops. Hope is real, but evidence matters. I unpack this in my new Substack.

Fraud doesn’t equal fact.
The “vaccines cause autism” claim was based on a debunked 1998 paper—and that lie has harmed countless families.
Science is clear: there is no link. Truth matters.
