PBS Weekend NewsHour features members of the "disability community" who express fear of leaving their homes because mandatory masking and social distancing have ended. Individuals with conditions like POTS and scleroderma claim they have been "erased" from public spaces. The hosts characterize this as the result of long-term media "terrorism" that has left vulnerable people unnecessarily terrified.

### Ozempic Weight Loss, Telemedicine Data Privacy

Telemedicine platforms like Cerebral are under fire for sharing sensitive patient data with advertisers, including names, phone numbers, and mental health assessments. Meanwhile, the rise of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy (semaglutide) has led to acquisitions by companies like Weight Watchers to facilitate prescriptions. Users report significant weight loss but express concerns over the high monthly costs and the necessity of long-term use to maintain results.

Telehealth company Cerebral faces scrutiny over its "prescriber" model, which allegedly prioritizes rapid medication distribution over patient care. A specific case is highlighted where a patient was prescribed five medications in 30 minutes and subsequently attempted suicide after being told the prescriber had no more time for her.

### Amygdala Measurements and Mainstream Media Consumption

- **Episode:** [938: Humalgo](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/938-humalgo.md)

- **Time:** 2:00
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/938-humalgo/chapter/amygdala-measurements-and-mainstream-media-consumption.md

The discussion opens with a focus on the biological effects of consuming mainstream media, specifically how it reportedly causes the amygdala to enlarge while shrinking the cerebral cortex. This "reptilian brain" expansion is linked to increased hostility and cognitive dissonance. Reference is made to the mental state of the gunman involved in the recent congressional baseball shooting.
