NH Says Mask Up, It’s Now Mandatory! New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu announced Thursday afternoon that there will be a mandatory mask mandate throughout the state starting on Friday (today) and it will continue till January 15th.

Taking on Big Pharma. Today, President Trump held a press conference at the White House where he announced his administration issued new regulations that could lower the price of prescription drugs for many Americans. Early on when Trump came into office, he said that Big Pharma is: “getting away with murder”. This latest move by the Trump administration would accomplish two thing: 1) Tie what Medicare pays for medications administered in a doctor’s office to the lowest price paid among a group of other economically advanced countries. 2) Require drug-makers, for brand name pharmacy medications, to give Medicare enrollees rebates. How much are you currenting spending on prescription drugs? Would Trump’s latest regulations help you greatly?
NOT Traveling for Thanksgiving. The Centers for Disease Control held a briefing Thursday where they were very adamant that Americans should not travel for Thanksgiving this year.

Furthermore, the CDC says you should only have Thanksgiving dinner with people who live in the same household as you. What will you be doing this Thanksgiving; traveling or gathering with others outside your home?
