Because I think quality of presentation is not being factored into the assessments you're seeing on that wiki.

I tend to recommend Healthline to the public because it clearly targets a lay audience, and chooses to meet that audience where they live. It's written the way I talk to my patients, and the information is accurate and accessibly easier to read.

Just look at the difference between the pages on hypertension from Healthline and MedlinePlus:

https://www.healthline.com/health/high-blood-pressure-hypertension

https://medlineplus.gov/highbloodpressure.html

The details and accuracy of the information is not different. But the way Healthline presents it is so much more accessible.

The best thing to happen from WebMD is we got a bunch of actual medical providers like Mayo Clinic, University of Maryland, Merck Manual that went, "GAH! No!!" and made actually informative, updated medical websites.

Healthline, kids. Healthline is where we go for our medical information.

That was during wartime and it was a court martial. Courts martial are still notoriously harsher than civil courts today.

This is exactly why the billionaires are dismantling the current social media platforms. Organizing is the only threat they truly fear.

"Worrell suffers from a rare form of lymphoma and said he was afraid the cancer treatment he’d get during a long prison sentence could allow the disease to kill him. He said he did take a number of pills just before he was recaptured and had opioids in his system.

“I acted out of severe mental anguish and very genuine fear for my life,” he said. “I am truly sorry and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.”"

Had opioids in his system, suffers from an actual other medical condition, also probably a psych eval. That could easily take five days.
