Mortality Claims About Covid-19 Vaccinations
Volume 1, No 3
Paul Zarembka
In this letter to the editor, the author critiques claims that COVID‑19 vaccines increased all‑cause mortality. Using English public health data from the Delta variant period, he shows that mortality rates per 100 000 were lower among fully vaccinated older adults than among unvaccinated peers and urges skeptics to engage with these data before questioning vaccine efficacy.

Multiple Sclerosis Remission Is Possible
Volume 1, No 3
Bob Sblendorio, Christina Kiening
This letter describes a patient’s experience achieving multiple sclerosis remission after adopting the Coimbra Protocol, a regimen of high‑dose vitamin D supervised by trained physicians. The authors explain the protocol’s requirements, discuss genetic polymorphisms affecting vitamin D metabolism, and encourage the Independent Medical Alliance to train clinicians so more patients can access this life‑changing therapy.

From Coverage to Care: Unpacking Patient Perceptions in Healthcare Access
Volume 1, No 1
Yara Hamdi, Niki Jarrett, Mohamed Ziad-M. Said
Socioeconomic status, health literacy, and insurance types significantly impact U.S. healthcare access. Insurance coverage acts as the primary gateway to services. Restrictions vary among plans; HMOs are affordable but restrictive, PPOs offer flexibility at higher costs. A pilot study found PPO holders generally more satisfied than HMO or POS holders.

Translational Issues: Should we care?
Volume 1, No 1
Matt Halma, Joseph Varon
Studies on N1-methyl-pseudouridylated (m1Ψ) RNA reveal context-dependent changes in translational fidelity. Initial experiments showed no significant difference, but recent research highlights frameshifting and sequence-dependent effects, emphasizing the need for more basic science research before widespread use in mRNA vaccines.
