EXCLUSIVEDoctors weigh in on mystery illnesses plaguing attendees at Donald Trump rally
At least six people who sat stage right behind the former President in Tucson, Arizona , last Thursday have reported suffering from eyes that felt like they were 'burning' or had turned 'red like hell' in the hours after the political gathering. Others say they are now 'blinded' by any bright lights, requiring them to hide indoors with a towel over their head. The pain is 'unbearable', they say. The illnesses only affected people sitting stage right from Trump , with those seated stage left - and Trump himself - unharmed, according to reports. Two doctors told DailyMail.com they believed this may be an issue with the air-conditioning system, with it either blowing too strongly and drying out attendees eyes or blowing a fine dust into their eyes that caused irritation and damage.

It WASN'T a lab leak! Scientists say they've finally discovered the truth about the origins of Covid
Scientists reveal the true origin of the Covid pandemic, silencing the theory that it was leaked from a laboratory. The major international study published today in Cell, insists that the virus did spread from a 'wet market' in Wuhan, China, and they have identified the animals behind the transmission to humans. The research found that the genetic sequence of Covid was likely to be present at the market from 2019 at stalls that sold live animals. 'This adds another layer to the accumulating evidence that all points to the same scenario: that infected animals were introduced into the market in mid- to late November 2019, which sparked the pandemic,' says author of the study Kristian Andersen from Scripps Research.

How doctors dismissed a 11-year-old boy's stage 4 CANCER as 'growing pains'
At age 11 and entering his final years at middle school, Landon Motter was due a growth spurt. So when, in the summer of 2023, he began suffering an ache in his hip, doctors dismissed it as growing pains. The family, from Maryland , had originally linked the pain to go-karting, which they had done plenty of on the trip. But as summer wore on and Landon started school, the pain became so excruciating that he would wake up crying in the middle of the night. During soccer practice, his parents noticed he was limping. A bone biopsy revealed stage four blood cancer that had spread to his hip bones.
