A Common Sense Look at 20 million Saved Lives 

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The Imperial College authors want us to believe that without the COVID vaccines the world’s total death toll would have risen by at least a third in 2021 (had they included China, their result would have come close to an increase of 50%), and that this rise would have been entirely due to COVID-19. How does this not seem completely ludicrous to anybody with a remnant of common and clinical sense?

How To Model Fallacy, According to the Lancet

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

There is supposed to be a clear line between medical publishing and propaganda. No less so than in the pages of the Lancet, previously considered a relative bastion of integrity in publishing. Honesty in medical publishing, meaning publication on the basis of transparent rigorous review and impartiality, is of particular importance to medicine and public health. The outcomes of such publications contribute to saving or killing people.

What Happened to Don’t Be Evil?

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Big Tech platforms openly collude with governments to suppress the speech of their own people, while overtly abusing the legal system and paying massive settlements to conceal the evidence of their collusion. They craft the false illusion of consensus on political issues of their own choosing, a power unprecedented in our democracy and historically held only by the most despotic regimes, promising in every instance to wield it for good, but falling short every time.

Stop Blaming Workers for the Labor Shortage

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

It’s useful to think about in terms of what happened in March of 2020. It was then that politicians aggressively took away freedom. The very humans who drive all progress had become a lethal menace to one another, according to politicians and experts. Suddenly eating in a restaurant, trying on clothes in a clothing store, flying on a plane, or merely touching one’s face had life or death qualities.

Dr Vladimir Zev Zelenko

In Memory of Dr. Vladimir Zev Zelenko

In his four years of struggle with what was a terminal cancer, Dr. Zelenko looked death in the eye numerous times.  He said that these experiences made him unafraid of the opinions of men.  But I think that he had a strength of character that enabled him to get to that point, separate from his own illness, that surely made him unique.

The End of Political and Ideological Allegiances

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Tribalism and polarization have made our political and medical discourse nasty and divisive. Doctors must be kept above the partisan fray, not forced to take sides and pick a jersey. Our jobs are too important, and we need to be apolitical to maintain credibility with everyone who comes to us seeking treatment. Progress and innovative medical breakthroughs in the future depend on freedom and medical choice now.

The Insufferable Arrogance of the Constantly Wrong 

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The saddest thing is that these media outlets and their flag bearers really think their readers are all morons. The New York Times believes that, in the midst of the Omicron wave as boosted person after boosted person was getting COVID, they could tell you these particular vaccines are still the way to eradicate this thing, and expect you to deny reality and nod your head.

The Cure Was Vastly Worse than the Disease 

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

If we don’t keep speaking out about the horrors that the “public health” mafia, liberal elite, and mainstream scientific narrative has wrought upon us, we will continue down a path toward tyranny of a tiny coterie of “experts” who have perhaps intentionally led us into a miasma of destroyed human lives and societies.
