The New York State Department of Health released an interim report on the Le Roy neurological cluster, officially blaming "conversion disorder." The report dismisses environmental toxins like TCE, but the hosts note that the department's own literature acknowledges mercury can cause identical tic symptoms. Dr. Laszlo Mechtler of the Dent Neurological Institute is criticized for dismissing vaccine links.

A conflict of interest is alleged involving CNN's Sanjay Gupta, who is listed as a doctor at the Dent Neurological Institute, the same facility investigating the Le Roy tics. The health department's report claims there is no "temporal relationship" between the Gardasil vaccine and the onset of symptoms, a phrasing the hosts interpret as a linguistic loophole to ignore long-term adverse effects.
