🚀Na over-correction (Na📈) as THE (only) cause of ODS/CPM: An absurd over-simplification. Since 1980s, Na📈 has been portrayed as the main cause of CPM (so far as now the terms ODS and CPM are used synonymously). However, finding the truth (if it exists) is more complicated.

Can somebody please explain why hospital credentialing is the most painful, time consuming, inefficient thing of all time? How can it take almost a year to get credentialed at a hospital? It’s actually comical.

BREAKING: Kamala Harris just released this devastating ad slamming Donald Trump for having a problem with the truth. All Donald Trump does is lie, and when he’s not lying, he’s rambling incoherently. Retweet so all Americans see this.
