Anti-science activists have been in a war on food coloring for decades, and with one of their own having power in the new presidential administration, have even banned some, but artificial dyes have been used in many products for millennia.
The science and medical response to activists claims that drinking water, weedkillers, and food coloring are killing people is to ask, where are the dead bodies?

They were there because those don't cause cancer, any more than manufacturing a PM2.5 air quality standard 30 years ago saves any lives, because they were never causing deaths.
Telehealth, replies to messages or a quick video consulation with a health care provider, are designed to save time for everyone and reduce costs.
It may also be causing greater rates of physician burnout, according to a recent paper.

And then the first target for activists in a $3 billion industry devoted to scaring people about science solutions. 
In 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration an Alzheimer’s therapy shown in clinical trials to modestly slow disease progression but side effects, brain swelling and bleeding, occurred in some.

Though clinical trials have taken twice as long and cost twice as much due to government regulations, they can't  cover everything and a successful doesn't mean broader demographics won't show different effects. Lawyers are gleeful at the opportunity to sue but they will be disappointed in the latest results for lecanemab. Adverse events associated with lecanemab treatment in clinic patients were rare and manageable.
