    who would have guessed that getting into an mri machine for an hour is “just like getting an mri”.

    A normal mri machine also doesn’t give off harmful radiation. An mri uses radio waves and a strong magnetic field, which are harmless. And so does this. because it’s an mri machine.

    It was like getting an MRI scan for an hour with no radiation

    MRIs don’t use radiation

    Google “Prenuvo”

    It’s just an MRI

    Anyway, death to Kim Kardashian and death to amerikkka.

    Could careless anything related to Kardashian bullshit, but given the machine is focused on detecting illness in the earlier stage, which is exactly every healthcare and insurance is trying to get people to do (it is much cheaper to treat early rather than late); why is this being referred to as “for fun”?

    If you had the ability to access this machine, would you not?

      I took the “for fun” stuff directly from trauma chief’s tweet…

      Being trauma chief has illuminated more than ever how the current healthcare system fails those who need it most. I can’t get polytrauma patients to rehab for insurance reasons… but the rich & famous can get scans for fun bc they’ve got cash. We need universal healthcare.

      And Kardashian said this - emphasis mine…

      It has really saved some of my friends lives

      Everything she does is shameless self promotion even if it doesn’t seem so superficially. She lives in a world of absolutely extreme wealth and she couldn’t care less about the average person much less the poor. If she ever mentions the words “universal healthcare” - it’s not because she grew a heart or a soul. It’s because she’s got some kind of scam going where she hopes to make millions. And - of course - she’ll never go to jail. She might pay a fine though.

      That’s what happened to her crypto scam…

      Why Kim Kardashian was charged by the SEC for crypto advertisement

      Kardashian paid over $1.2 million to the SEC after she promoted a cryptocurrency token called EthereumMax.
