No Coverage on Arguably the Biggest Crisis Faced by the United States

Imagine a highly regarded and credentialed doctor like Casey Mean giving an impassioned talk before Congress last week warning that we are being systematically poisoned by Big Pharma and Big Ag. And see my post on her talk.

Then imagine that there has been absolutely no coverage of this important talk by NYT, MSNBC, CNN, NPR or WaPo.  How could that possibly be?

Who is the Real Anthony Fauci?

I had been reading RFK, Jr's long book, The Real Anthony Fauci, when I noticed that a three-hour documentary has been released based on this same book. The documentary is both riveting and demoralizing, filling in dozens of holes avoided by corporate media. They want to keep you ignorant.

I highly recommend watching this so that you can knock the scales from your eyes. It's not merely about Anthony Fauci. It's about our out-of-control corrupt medical system. Rather than getting frustrated by the system, this documentary names names and offers specifics about the cash-infused misguided ideology that now substitutes for what should be free-ranging endlessly-curious and self-critical science. You will learn why your doctors' hands are often tied.

You will learn many reasons for why the existence of the COVID vax is massive scandal and that there were many better alternatives. What makes me sad is that the people who need to watch this the most will refuse to watch it because they insist that Fauci should forever remain on a pedestal no matter how many people he has killed over the decades (including the AIDS scandal) through his corruption and ignorance.

Peter McCullough: The Current Corruption and Dysfunction of the “House of Medicine.”

Dr. Peter McCullough's summary of the current corruption and dysfunction of the "House of Medicine." Shocking and horrifying account of what really ails us.

In the first half of this talk, McCullough tells the sordid tale of power and corruption. How we got into this mess. Then he addresses some of the damage:

The vaccines didn't work. They didn't stop anybody from getting COVID. They didn't stop transmission. Our CDC director came out and said that early. And they didn't reduce the severity of disease. They're not going to prevent a recurrence right now. There's a fear media campaign right now saying everyone should take more shots because more COVID is coming.

They failed on all four counts. They failed on all four counts and I think America would have accepted an apology. America would have been very forgiving. The world would have been okay with that if they were safe, but it turns out the vaccines, as many of you know, aren't safe.

As we sit here today, we have 3,400 peer-reviewed papers describing fatal and non-fatal vaccine injury symptoms in the National Library of Medicine. It is not controversial It's not a theory. It is real. These vaccines cause very real side effects and they're in four major categories. One is cardiovascular and cardio--heart inflammation myocarditis, cardiac arrest. Number two is neurologic, all forms of stroke, Guillain-Barre Syndrome, neuropathy. Number three: blood clotting like we've never seen in medicine before. Blood clots that don't respond to typical blood thinners that are just a disaster. And number four: immune system abnormalities.

In the final segment, McCullough discusses the link between excess vaccinations (he has had 67 over his life), autism and transgender ideology.

Disrupting the Healthcare System

This morning I attended a conference titled “Disruption and Innovation in Healthcare 2.0“ at Washington University in St. Louis. I was humbled at how well informed and nuanced the speakers were. They included Alex Gorsky (CEO of Johnson and Johnson), I certainly learned a lot. My main concern is that the ability to understand the complexity of the health care system is well beyond the ability of most people. The simplistic positions of our politicians are a great disservice to our country. For example, it is absolutely clear that our health care system is NOT a functional market, meaning that the Ayn Rand/Free-Market conservatives are deceiving us when they claim that all we need to do is “get government off our backs” to fix healthcare. I admire that progressive politicians are calling for universal access (something that almost all developed countries have, but not the U.S.). That said, how do we square that universal access with the need to incentivize future innovations, in addition to ongoing care? Any big changes to the current system could have disasterous ramifications.

The stakes could not be higher. To the extent we are tempted to implement broad new changes, we need to keep in mind (as one of today’s speakers said), “This is not a dress rehearsal. It’s the real deal.”

The speakers somberly delivered the following shocking information: There is currently no payment model for many current (and anticipated) extremely expensive curative therapies. Thus, people who can be CURED of horrific diseases will languish under the status quo because we can’t figure out how to give them more than palliative treatment, even when palliative treatment is sometimes more expensive in the long run. I dare you to read previous sentence a few times and then shrug and try to convince yourself that we, as a country cannot do better.

Here’s another fact was mentioned several times today: 75% of our health care budget is the result of bad choices made in early life by individual Americans. Preaching at people to get their act together shouldn’t offend reasonable people. For instance, urging that children should eat healthier food should be applauded, even though some conservatives ridicule Michelle Obama’s urgings in that direction. But what about more? To what extent should we, must we, put some skin in the game for people who are actively self-destructing their bodies? I think we need to seriously look at some low-hanging fruit and make some people uncomfortable for their own well being and for the greater good of the United States. The overall health of the United States is most definitely a public good. The ill-health of any of us affects all of us.

These issues are ultra-complex, highly nuanced, in addition to being critical important. Anyone pretending otherwise should be promptly yanked off the political stage.

Here’s more information about this event. It was being video-recorded and hope that it will be made available to anyone interested in these issues. “2nd Annual Olin Business School Healthcare Symposium: 'Disruption and Innovation in Healthcare 2.0'

Resisting Wars of Discretion Could Save Lives at Home

Our belief in war as a solution to our foreign policy issues, despite the lack of clear objectives and confirmatory metric of "success," is hemorrhaging the U.S. budget. Where are the voices of politicians demanding that we justify this annual military spending by pointing to real life successes?

In the meantime, many Americans are going bankrupt in an effort to get the necessary medical care to stay alive (2/3 of all bankruptcies). Others simply give up and die.
