Genuinely, how much can we trust a US government website on anything claimed to be health information given who their health secretary is?

This study has been running since 1961 in Japan.
Long before both countries became openly fascist.
And like all good articles it has appropriate sources and references

Japan was openly fascist before the article was written too, but you might mean not including the period before US occupation?

[–] MaxLemminist@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

Yes that is exactly what I mean.
Even if they technically didn't have a fascist party the first time

Wouldn't put it past them to fabricate sources, they're routine liars after all.
