      Basically the richer you are and the better the healthcare available, the less you trust vaccines.

      People are illogical by nature. Doesn't surprise me one bit.

                      'Climate apartheid' between rich and poor looms, UN expert warns

                      A UN expert has warned of a possible "climate apartheid", where the rich pay to escape from hunger, "while the rest of the world is left to suffer".

                      Even if current targets are met, "millions will be impoverished", said Philip Alston, the UN's special rapporteur on extreme poverty.

                        North Korea reveals explosive HIV outbreak—after claiming to be disease-free

                        The case estimate stands in stark contrast to a celebration in Pyongyang last year on December 1—annual World AIDS Day—in which government officials declared that North Korea is an “AIDS-free zone” and that there is “not a single AIDS patient” in the country.

                        Well in all honesty, there likely are ZERO AIDS patients in all of North Korea because NK doesn't treat anyone for anything.

                                European heatwave: France hits record temperature of 45.1C

                                France has hit its highest recorded temperature - 45.1C (113.2F) - amid a heatwave in Europe that has claimed several lives.

                                The new record was measured in the southern town of Villevieille. The previous record was 44.1C during a heatwave in 2003 that killed thousands.

                                        Renewable electricity beat out coal for the first time in April

                                        Seasonal shifts helped, but long-term changes underlie the record.
                                        A remarkable thing happened in the US in April. For the first time ever, renewable electricity generation beat out coal-fired electricity generation on a national level, according to the Energy Information Agency (EIA).
