Wow I didn’t know Wes was medically qualified

I live in Liverpool and I’m not buying him so much as a glass of tap water. He can afford to pay for a blue tick on X.

Will nobody think of the vulnerable people? Is it “wait for a drug” or is it “find the biological anomalies before trying to address them” Paul?
