Why should "we" trust the science when the elites running the NGOs, the politiciians, and even the scientists don't? To add to your list Alex:

They have banned Ivermectin and HCQ along with nearly every other alternate treatment

Have replaced them with the death drug remdesivir which they pay the hospitals 20% extra to forcefully push on their patients

Have destroyed the reputations and careers of anyone pointing out the massive fraud that is the plandemic

Have silenced, censored, or banned nearly everyone on the planet

And have changed the definitions of:

Herd Immunity: now only includes those vaccinated—They removed ‘natural immunity’ altogether (they reverted this back after an outcry from the medical community).

Vaccine: no longer grants immunity from disease. Now merely gives ‘protection’.

Pandemic: no longer requires mass sickness and death. Disease merely needs to be widespread.

So if they do not "trust the science" - which they clearly do not because they keep changing it - why should we?

From The Ethical Skeptic:

Two Medical Ethics to be tried:

First, 'Do no harm' (Delayed-treatment murders)

Second, 'Informed Consent' (Denial of human rights)

How does one give informed consent, if one is not informed? Propaganda is not information, no matter its awesome insistence.

I am a physician and I have to tell you as much as I despise the public health officials, govt, big tech, big media .... etc. ... I despise even more doctors. There is a sense that many are quiet because they fear for their jobs (most docs are employees in 2022)... and while that is true, it seems to me talking to them that a majority are under the spell of mass psychosis and are proud they don't treat or see unvaxxed people. It is absolutely sick and disgusting. So... many if not most agree with these totalitarian practices and the fearful ones are cowards because they are violating number 1 and 2. Don't forget people... the doctors were instrumental in the nazi machine. It wasn't just Mengele... there were 10s of thousands that committed or agreed with atrocities.

The parents believe the doctors. A very similar mindset is what allowed pedophile priests to operate in plain sight for DECADES—parents see doctors, like priests, as conduits to God.

More than 160 Belgian doctors filed a petition very early on, started a web site with REAL info and then got banned, everywhere, and lost their licence. They tried several more times, but finally had to give up. I don't know what happened to them, the last report I read there were already 23000 + signatures on the document.

Truckers do have a few advantages: 1) they really can shut down the every day economy. Doctors can't. 2) their rigs are almost impossible to move without the permission of the operator. 3) At least in Canada, they have the cooperation of tow truck operators. 4) while on the move, a truck convoy is much more impressive than a car convoy 5) truckers are traditionally very respectful on the highway and well-liked by the public.

In the very beginning , I remember someone asking me in the dining room about hydroxychloroquine after I had prescribed it for all my friends and family ( banned about 5 weeks later ) The arrogance of doctors interrupting me to say it didn’t work was upsetting . Ivermectin followed . The misrepresentation of the dead totally editing the 15 comorbidities was next , then the vaccine shaming. It’s been a well rehearsed script from the beginning . The initial lockdown , the classes in layers and layers of protective gear for a stat section you could never gear up fast enough for , the blind inoculating of everyone and the Facebook posts of people boosting themselves with glee , the vastly different home front reports ( anti vaxx doctors being critical and actually asking and actually reporting in fact it’s absolutely NOT a pandemic of the unvaccinated , now becoming the opposite as you still hear nurses report that” they are all unvaccinated “ ( untrue as the default in the EMR is unvaccinated and it’s a process to correct it ) and … they just quit asking . It’s more profitable to say it and push the vaxx . Meanwhile , reports from my nursing friends all over ( that are unvaxxed ) is that the vaxxed staff are out sick constantly creating a huge stress on staffing making hospitals with way more empty beds than full

“ on diversion “ and “ overwhelmed “ with patients waiting 36 hours in the ER to get a bed .. fueling the hysteria . It’s just too big and too many bought in and sold themselves out early on , blindly advising all patients to make a fatal mistake based on their advice. I don’t know how you would love with yourself when you look back on that carnage you caused …. So they won’t ever believe it . They can’t reconcile it .

It’s been an insane thing to watch .

It is amazing that so many physicians and hospitals have dismissed early treatments or any treatment. I am so embarrassed to be a physician. It is going to take many years for patients to trust the healthcare community again.

Expand full comment

Unfortunately, for some of us, it's never going to happen. It isn't just that physicians have pooped the bed over the last 24 months by trumpeting the narrative and vilifying "anti-vaxxers." It's the entire medical industrial complex over the last several decades that is the problem. From getting people hooked on heroin to treat chronic pain to the deliberate over-prescription of drugs to treat side effects of other drugs. Our society is dealing with a total collapse of trust in all establishments at a global scale. Governance, mainstream media, fiat money, and corporate greed. Healthcare is a very large part of that last one. As you said it's going to take years to repair for most. But for me, and others, there's no fixing it. I can't un-see it at this point.

I'm not a doctor. Still, as a layperson, I mean, for my family's own safety, I had to stockpile Ivermectin and Hydroxy from a very trusted source in India. My doctor (whom is an old friend from childhood days) wouldn't prescribe it, and said I wouldn't find a pharmacy to dispense it anyway. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? This is insane, and absolutely unforgiveable. I will never be able to unsee it either.

You have. Government health care. Medicare is the hammer. Hospitals are the nail. You get smashed between them and so do the doctors. Obamacare merely accelerated it but the financial carrots ($$ per covid case, remdesivir, ventilators, death) and sticks (fines for having unvexxed staff) all were possible before.

Obamacare is indeed the thing that made it possible for the healthcare cartel to implement this criminal enterprise.

I know I don't trust doctors anymore. I use to just go with whatever they suggested/prescribed but now I research everything. Ten years ago, I was prescribed an injection (every 6 months) because I had osteopenia. I hadn't broken any bones. After researching the drug and finally understanding all the potential side effects (not explained by my doctor), I stopped taking them but started eating healthier, exercising and walking several miles a day and taking natural calcium supplements. I am still in the osteopenia range and didn't progress to osteoporosis although my doctor told me I would fall, break a hip, and end up in a nursing home if I didn't take the drugs. Several months ago she asked if I had the covid injection and when I said NO, she looked up at me with wide eyes, and asked why I hadn't taken it. She then went on to tell me how safe it was and I needed to have it. I again said NO. Then she asked if I had the flu shot and I said NO, and she offered it right there in her office and I again said NO. She wrote on my chart in all caps "PATIENT HAS NOT HAD COVID VACCINE" so I guess I'm now labeled as anti-vax.

Next time a doctor (or anyone) asks you why you haven't had a vaccine, ask them if they know that the makers have immunity from liability. If they didn't know, well, there's your reason. If they did, and somehow manage to excuse this, remind them of the opiods and Vioxx, oh and arsenic in baby powder, and ask if pharma cos do this when they DO have liability, why would anyone trust them when they don't?

I did not take the clot shot. My primary care physician recommended the vaccine for shingles and the flu. Over my life time, it appears to me that natural immunity from the flu is about ten years and then if I get stressed and unhealthy I might get it. I don't take the shot. I asked the doctor for the papers discussing the shingles vaccine that she recommended. I had told her that I had a short case of shingles that I identified quickly and was successfully treated. Evidently SHE didn't read the package insert which indicated that the vaccine decreased the chances of a person having had the shingles before by 5%. I am thinking that there is a small margin of error here that may actually include 5%. I did not get the shingles shot.

Expand full comment

Good for you. I had a mild case of shingles too, but my doctor convinced me I could get it again and that I needed the shingles shot. Got it and broke out in hives. That was prior to covid when I still trusted everything my doctor said. She's now retired and I now know to research and learn as much as possible prior to agreeing to anything a doctor prescribes.

You're smarter than many. If not for marrying my ER physician assistant husband in 2011, I wonder what this pandemic would have looked like to me. I've always saw the best in people and thought the criminal were far and few in between. I doubt I would have saw through the medical establishment and likely would have been one of the Fauci followers (brings vomit to my throat to write that). My husband has been watching everything happen in shock since 2020. He didn't have much use for what the money-hungry system was evolving into prior to Covid but when he saw docs using ventilators preemptively, no steroids early on, no early treatments or recognition of natural immunity, he knew things would be forever changed. Since mandated vaccines became effective Nov 12, he hasnt had one shift (due to no vaccination). They won't fire him and he won't quit. He's working at an urgent care now and maybe until he can retire in 10 years. If he could work ANYWHERE else and keep the same income he'd go in a heartbeat. He never dreamed the medical field would have become so corrupt and untrustworthy and wants NOTHING to do with it.

The prohibition by most Western nations of the many known, safe, proven therapeutic treatments for people diagnosed with this virus is one of the worse evils of the many failed healthcare policies. I don’t believe this has ever occurred before. “Sir, you have Cov-19” “What should I do?” “Isolate at home, when you get really sick, get to a hospital where we will quarantine you, not allowing any family to be with you. We will provide treatment that does not work, and when your immune system fails we will put you on a ventilator and then you die. Alone! The only thing worse is giving the experimental gene therapy shots to children. Evil!

The scenario you outline is precisely what happened to my 87 year old dad. After his symptoms got worse and his o2 levels dropped precipitously, he elected not to go to the hospital because he didn’t want to die alone. We called in hospice and he died with his kids surrounding his bedside. But I do believe he could have been saved had they done early intervention.

Also, he was one unfortunate enough to have been given the vaccine whilst infected by CoVid virus (he received positive results five days after being tested and was told he should get vaxxed while he was awaiting the results. He developed the real Issues about a week and a half after the shot and 2 weeks after being tested for virus ). I’m convinced that this caused a major cytokine storm and exacerbated everything. He was in so much pain everywhere. I’ll never know if the vax is what ultimately killed him.

My sincere condolences to you and your family. I believe it is conclusive that if the therapeutics had not been prohibited a lot of suffering, millions of deaths and hospitalization would have been avoided!

Hospitals are essentially abattoirs these days. They are literally being paid by the government to kill patients. The incentives for them to do this were put in place by the last administration and continue to this day.

In any other context this would be considered Murder One. Hospital administrators would be put on trial, convicted, and sent to the federal pen for life. Doctors and nurses injecting patients with Remdesivir and putting them on ventilators at the behest of the aforementioned hospital administrators would be charged with 2nd degree murder.

One of my doctors - an orthopedic surgeon (MD and PhD) - told me a couple of weeks ago that he will not be giving the jab to his kids, ages 3 and 4 1/2. He has had three shots and his mom died of covid a year ago, he is not anti vax. He has seen an influx of patients with weird symptoms like frozen shoulder. Things people don’t normally associate with a vaccine. Things people don’t think to report to VAERS. He’s a specialist, so people come to him after seeing their PCP. The PCPs aren’t asking about the timing of onset of symptoms related to the timing of their vaccine, so he has started asking. And finding that symptoms start almost always within a week or two of the jab. He told me he will likely pull his kids out of daycare and get a nanny instead since they require the vaccine at age 5. We live in a state where proof of vaccine is required for 12 and up to go almost anywhere. Not sure what I’ll do when my daughter turns 12 in 4 months.

My (now-ex) PCP told me during my last annual physical that I needed to get vaxxed because doctors were "just overworked treating Covid patients". I asked her why she didn't simply prescribe Ivermectin or other early treatments and she actually told me there were no early treatments.

Being Indian, she wasn't even aware of the success of IVM in Uttar Pradesh.

The EXACT same thing happened to me and my (now ex) PCP! She was in tears because of a 19 yr old that had just been in her office with Covid...I asked her what early treatment she offered her and got the same answer. She then said...and I quote...that she was F-ing sick and tired of telling patients like me why they need to get the vax. When I told her that I have done an exhaustive amount of research before I made my decision she said she would like to see it (she was calling me out, not sincerely interested). Last week I sent her Senator Johnson's recent roundtable and told her that it was HER responsibility as a doctor to do her own research, not just take the word of the FDA and CDC (like she told me she does that day in the office). I also told her that I have lost all faith in her and I'd rather live the rest of my life with no doctor than ever put my trust in someone like her again.

The irony with this is that it used to be that doctors told patients not to trust the internet - that they were trained and knew best.

But today, most doctors themselves rely on the internet, the problem is, that reliance is on one source of online information; the NIH protocols. They're like robots. They don't do broad-based research on their own and even if they did, apparently they can't process the information and apply it to their practice.

While the rest of the professional world tries to keep current in their disciplinary area, it seems like most docs (and nurses) are stuck on their training and the diktats handed down from government agencies. PAs may be the exception - not sure.

Now, trying to find a replacement for one of these NIH drones is nearly impossible.
