well miss gabriella, i can certainly see how spending that kind of money on your education only to have you emerge unable to read a clinical study or assess outcomes data or in a meaningful fashion would upset your parents!
it must be even worse when they see you be unable to avoid making generalization fallacies from specific instances.
that’s a tough combo.
i mean, if someone told me i was “anti medicine” because i maybe did not want to take fentanyl to cure a sore throat, i’d feel pretty bad about putting them through med school too!
A THOUGHT……..Maybe States should pass a Medical Transparency Law.
It would require all Hospitals and Doctors to place in clear view in their reception area a listing of any and all payments that they have received from Big Pharma. Included are grants, reimbursements, product bonuses, speaker fees, endowments, etc, etc,etc. Showing who received it, how much, and when from which Big Pharma.
Exactly. The last time I reluctantly went to the doctor the first thing they did was pull out the prescription pad after doing a search online for the "best drug" for my ailment. I couldn't believe it. Almost 400$ for the visit and a prescription and later I found a home remedy that cost me literally 10 cents. NEVER AGAIN.
I had a similar experience a few years ago. I’m 68 and I hurt my back breaking up ice on the driveway. Went to see a doc and he opens his laptop and googles my symptoms and says I have DDD. Degenerative disc disease and there is nothing hew can do about it. Went home and did some research and I lost 50 lbs. started exercising and complicatedly changed my diet. And in 2 months the pain is gone and never came back. And I paid this Dr. 375.00 to tell me he couldn’t do anything. Never again. Stay away from Dr.s
There's no home remedy for cancer. There are also few good RX remedies for most cancers (testicular cancer, leukemia are notable exceptions) Best to do everything possible to keep your body in tip top shape to keep any rogue cancer cells in check. As for cancer screening scans/xrays in the absence of symptoms, I wonder if they might increase cancer risk over time.
Sometimes I can't help but see the correlation between $$ and stupidity; the more of one the more of the other. It blinds people to reality and removes them from it.

Good idea. Getting rid of all such affirmative action for MDs, and bringing chiropractors, naturopaths, and acupuncturists - 3 words you'll never hear on MSM - into the public discussions of human health would have vastly better results, as people would then make better choices in a more free, fair marketplace. We're living proof.
https://projects.propublica.org/docdollars/ might show the $'s the #HarmaceuticalIndustry has kindly assisted your local #Quack with, but it doesn't show the costs & suffering associated with medicine as a pill box.
Our acute care system is great for trauma, since it's evolved as part of the 1st ½ of our warfare/welfare state. However, the 2nd ½, the chronic or welfare part, is abysmal. Last year the US had >100,000 preventable diabetes deaths!
Making #lifespan = #healthspan should be the core principle of medicine. But, that prescription requires lifestyle changes, not pills.

Getting past the " pill for every ill" mentality: #deprescription
Pharmaceutical companies write the textbooks and course material for medical schools.
Ever since big Pharma changed the philosophy from Osteopath to Allopath, the industry has been sick care. The only answer to health in Allopathy is "take this pill" - Qui bono?
An example of this is antibiotics. Antibiotics are the wrong approach if you want to cure someone but delaying the cure sure is profitable! Instead, bacteriophage technology (viruses that only attack bacteria that cause infection) is probably the most effective way to cure huge populations cheaply and easily. Big Pharma set us on a course long ago to chase profit at the expense of health.
Thank you for this comment. I majored in French (Hey, you in the back -- no laughing!) and yet I felt compelled to write a stern reprimand to the chief medical officer of Mass General Brigham last night after reading the drivel he shotgunned out to everyone on the hospital's e-mail list, two years after a mismanaged respiratory virus outbreak.
I should not be having to think about things like this. Most of us should not even know a name for SARS2, let alone a marketing name assigned to the symptoms it can provoke in a small percentage of people. Medicine is in trouble if Gabriella represents its next generation of providers.
Please. They are learning "Evidence Based Medicine." We choose the "evidence" from the drug companies' trials.
There have been no "acceptable" trials on Ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, or early treatment in North America, and of course studies from LDC's are not acceptable in the first world.
If there were any indications of integrity in our political or medical overlords, advice on Vitamin D supplementation would have been prominent over the past two years.
This one intentional "oversight" on the part of the medical providers is enough to condemn them in my book. If we had even had one PSA about checking vit. D levels and addressing deficiencies, then I'd be willing to consider them merely incompetent instead of the malicious, compliant, authoritarians they have revealed themselves to be.
it has been in trouble for 100 years, since big names like Rockefeller started to mix into med. They wanted all med to be chemical (read profitable). It is forbidden in the US to treat cancer only with natural methods. You must include chemo and radiation or you can not do a therapy as a doctor. You go to the doc, or even a vet, with an indigestion they don't even ask what you or your animal ate, they just prescribe something, mostly antibiotics and cortisone. For an upset stomach. I found a vet who does not (yet) but no doc so far
The vet schools are also heavily funded by the pet food companies, so many vets prescribe Rx pet foods which are crap. I, too, found a vet who is more naturopathic. She was the only vet who knew what to correctly feed a diabetic cat.
Yep, see my comment above. Didn't see yours til after writing it.
It's a total mystery why our pets have such awful health, with cancers and auto-immune disease, diabetes run rampant, etc. ad nauseum. Total mystery. Vets are horrible, in general. I'm glad you found a good one, I wish we had one nearby.
Pets get shot up with more frequent and nastier vaccines than even we people do now. When I was a kid, pets were all just normal looking and healthy until they got eaten by something wild or run over. Now pretty much every adult cat or dog I know of is obese, lazy, arthritic, with kidney disease and tumors and all manner of other ailments. I know part of it is that people are so lonely now that they spend gazillions of dollars on their "fur babies" medical bills to keep them alive when they aren't well, but it doesn't explain why all pets are fat af nowadays
my cat, ivan, is diabetic (diagnosed three years ago). it was the crap modern catfood that did it, though i never fed them on dry food and i thought i was buying good brands of canned. since then, he and little mica get top end grain free food with lots of broth, and of course no dry food except for cat treats. but i do give ivan insulin shots. all of this, including diet recommendations, were from the vet.
is there anything else i ought to know? you sound very well informed.
Hi Sky- it’s been awhile, but I used to follow a website called Felinediabetes.com
On there, they had a list of all the cat foods and how many carbs etc each one contains.
It’s important to test the cats blood sugar before you shoot, as their blood sugar can go really low unexpectedly. It’s easy to learn and they don’t mind a little prick on ear edge. Uses a human glucometer.
Sounds like you are on the right path- NO dry food. The pate style canned tend to have the lowest carbs. The saucy ones are higher.
While changing kitty’s diet, back off on insulin dose to be safe, and ideally start home blood sugar testing.
Hope this helps! I agree the bad foods are causing it!
Yep. It must be emphasized that the exact same thing has been done to veterinary medicine as to human medicine. Pill and vaccine pushers, and woeful nutrition ignorance. They get their supposed nutrition education from the bloody pet food companies. They're horrified at the thought of feeding your cat/dog a species-appropriate diet (raw meat/bones/offal), and as a result have totally brainwashed the public.
But they make some good money cleaning the teeth of animals who eat the crap from bags, and pumping them with yearly vaxxes. Hmmm, almost like there's a conflict of interest or two there.
My local petco has a delicious assortment of cookies (sandwich-oreo-like) and ice cream treats for pets. My daughter begs me for them when we go there.
‘… marketing name assigned to the symptoms it can provoke…’ Wouldn’t you say it was a ‘rebrand’ - formerly the Common Cold? Of course no vaccine ($$$$$) for Common Cold. Who would not howl with laughter if Pfizer said it had a vaccine against the Common Cold, which after some dupes tried it, it turned out not to stop you getting or spreading it. Nobody in their right minds would make fools of themselves telling others, insisting even, they should have it. Oh wait!
Very perceptive,bad luck all the dickheads promulgating all this steaming pile of dog shit around covid were not as perceptive,instead of them being so perfidious.
Was that the email, sadly not spam, containing the rubbish about masking harder based on the CDC's latest N95/KN95 pseudoscience? I got it via Mass General Brigham's "Patient Gateway" emails. Thank god that I'm no longer a patient of those lunatics.
My dad was a surgeon who practiced from around 1950 to the early 90s. I remember how furious he was when the pharmaceutical companies were allowed to start advertising their products on TV and in print.
How? Getting research grants, sponsoring meetings, being invited out to lunch/dinner, having travel expense and enrolment fees paid to attend conventions, invites to a new drug launch in an exotic location - do bring wife/husband, offering the opportunity to be part of a clinical trial enrolling patients into it and administering the drug/placebo for a per capita fee, paid to do lectures organised by the company, being paid to speak favourably about a product, jobs in research, donation to buy a nice new piece of equipment for your department/practice. Is that enough for you? I used to be in the business - 25 years. Doctors are a venal lot.
Because they are out of sync with their inner wisdom.. it doesn't take a thousand hours of research to 'know' that injecting exotic gene modifiers and heavy metals directly into your body is beyond ludicrous.
My sister in law got the two Moderna shots but had become a little reluctant to get the booster. Later she said she got the booster after all simply because she went to her new doctor and was told she should get the booster. So she did, no further questions asked because the doctor had spoken.
Doc, I’m with you. People forget how essential pharmaceuticals are. I for one would be dead by now if it were not for advances made in pharmaceuticals, being Diabetic
I have been a physician for 40+ years. I have felt totally ashamed of the medical profession over these past 2.5 years. The lies that have been propagated over this time have been astonishing. Nothing, I repeat nothing, is 100% safe and effective. Natural immunity is not recognized. It’s ok to vaccinate pregnant women despite not being included in the trials. I could go on and on.
I am right with you. 50 years in medicine and shocked and ashamed of my colleagues. I did drug development. I read the Pfizer trial and limited data available - this "vaccine" should NEVER and I mean NEVER have been approved. What scares me so much Judy is that the adverse events are mechanistic - inherent in the spike protein and its wide distribution in the body. I believe everyone is getting some mico-clotting and inflammation but most are able to clear it. Others not so lucky.
Thank you. It gives us hope knowing that you and Judy are out there, when the profession seems to be just a monolithic machine feeding the serial felons in the pharmaceutical lobby.
Eric, there are thousands of doctors with us and even more nurses. When the tribunals reveal what has been done, people will be very angry. I hope we will form a Committee of those who did not Consent. I want every public health official and academic physician who visited this on our people to resign. I believe Pfizer like Enron will collapse as a company. Fraud vitiates any liability protection. Lincoln: "so still it must be said 'the judgments of the Lord, are true and righteous altogether'"
As an attorney who has been practicing more than 25 years, I am equally ashamed of the number of attorneys who have apparently forgotten the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights. Vaccine mandates. mask mandates, censorship, etc. The limited number of lawsuits and numerous bad decisions is very disappointing, although thankfully the Supreme Court got the OSHA rule right.
Boy, I sure hope you are right. I fear the perpetrators might escape justice, and enjoy lucrative speaking engagements and kickbacks à la Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld in the wake of Dick 'n' Don's Excellent Adventure in Iraq. By now the psychopaths currently at work have surpassed even their count of harm done to individual lives.
If you haven't caught it yet and would like something to show those on the fence, I find one of the top five presentations that could wake up reasonable people who are trying to comply their way out (the largest demographic?) is the recent five-hour panel of medical professionals convened by Sen Ron Johnson. You'll be familiar with most or all of the material, but I'll wager it would be news to most viewers, and quite alarming:
Recently watched The Big Short. I think big corps know that they can get away with murder. At least the execs can. I am skeptical that there will be a proper reckoning for this.
Since several doctors DO see this, how come all the rest just blindly follows the piper? Can they all be in bigharma's pocket? How can we ever trust a doc who went along?
I also see the expansion of "Big Hospital" gobbling up private practices and smaller hospitals contributing to this problem. License loss is a real threat as is professional/career reputation smearing, but so is losing their jobs. When you consider that the average medical school debt is $250,000, it puts them in quite a bind. Not excusing it or defending it, but I understand why people might take the easy road and keep their heads down:(
That is yet another problem to be dealt with. Schools. No school should cost more than a medium house. That would solve a lot of problems to begin with !
More than that, their licenses to practice medicine at all are at risk of being revoked!!! This is what happens when politics intervenes in medicine. Dr. Aaron Kheriaty and I think maybe Dr. Pierre Kory spoke about this at Senator Ron Johnson's Covid-19: A Second Opinion panel.
“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.” Upton Sinclair
Gotta keep patients struggling so they are dependent on the goods behind the curtain (prescriptions, surgeries, other "therapies").
When it comes to dentists, the insistence that root canals are safe, and the complete ignorance of vitamin K2 is a dead giveaway that patient health is thrown under the income bus.
YES. I remember that too--it happened shortly after I started my current career and gave me a chill. It was the revival of a thing I now realize that conventional medicine has done many times before. There was the branding of female healers and midwives as "witches" in order to relegate those domains to men who belonged to the pharma guild. Later even male healers who practiced with diet and herbs were castigated in order to further empower those who were all-in for pharma, literally poisoning patients with mercury, lead, arsenic, and petroleum and also bleeding their patients, sometimes to death. My grandfather's doctor liked to pull his patients' teeth. Like...all of their teeth. Isn't it funny WHO is called crazy sometimes? Often, I believe it is narcissistic scapegoating. Where I live, home birth is practically illegal. And the covid situation, with masks and isolation and impoverishment and weird injections...It is getting to the point again now where, if a health strategy or intervention is NOT extremely dangerous, it is called "quackery". Hopefully people get to a breaking point and start calling BS on it at some point.
I mentioned another movie in another comment here but I'll also recommend The Constant Gardener, which is relevant to this topic. I am busy watching movies recommended on Healther Heying's Substack. I think the last one, which I haven't gotten to yet, is Dallas Buyer's Club.
I think you are right. Lots of medical people were afraid to loose their livelihood. I wonder how many would have refused abs if not for that. And how many regret knowing what is now unremovable in their bodies
Talked to an old High School friend last evening. She developed clotting in her left leg soon after the vaccines. She is just now getting back to walking (months of rest and therapy)- she bad mouthed relatives who chose to not get the shot(s). I kept my mouth shut, but she has NO idea of any of the possible correlations of the shot/clotting- and would poo-poo it if I actually brought it up, I believe.
The other day I told a patient I would be reporting the fact that she suddenly developed two very serious autoimmune diseases after her 3 covid vaccines to VAERS. The next visit, she told me she looked into that idea on the internet, and she believes she may have caught covid-19 without knowing it, and that a wild infection rather than the vaccines might more likely be the cause. It's not out of the question, but I found the situation really revealing with regard to both of our biases. My bias tells me that our immune systems are better equipped to handle pathogens and toxins introduced via mucus membranes rather than injection. The mainstream view, it seems, is that if authority figures want you to do it, it's probably not dangerous, but if it is wild, it is more likely to be dangerous.
She has to rationalize getting the shots somehow I guess! And yikes to that way of thinking. But I think that's how most are "thinking"- thanks for reporting to VAERS. I don't think many are!
The real ER DOC. I like that 'real' part of your name tag.!
I also like what you said. And you have no idea how high my heart jumped when you said: I believe everyone is getting some mico-clotting and inflammation but most are able to clear it. Others not so lucky. Well at least that gave me a momentary heart jump. My son took the vax to keep his job. Now, in my retirement, when I'm supposed to have no worries, I have many worries.
Yes we are real not fake. Please don't worry. Fortunately in great majority there is no problem (except it's not effective). My son got t 2 jabs early 21 before we had the 'real' data'. . I got 2 jabs same time. I have had 2 pericarditis/myocarditis cases in my clinic - both were very soon after 2nd dose or booster. And both were mild. I see no evidence of long term damage from the vaccine except more susceptibility to variant infections. Others may disagree but our bodies are miracles of creation (yes, not random products of chemical evolution) and are designed to heal from insults.
Me again. I see the words...Give Gift under your comment. Do you have a substack page? If not what does that mean? And thanks for your additional positive message.
Gee, I don't see that and don't know what it means. No substack page. I follow Steve Kirsch and bad cattitude. Both are very bright and I find them to be accurate.
We need to speak out as Docs. I am a Triple boarded DeBakey trained heart surgeon, just retired after 20,000 operations or so. Real ER dic, do a substack page! You are wise. Share it please. Substack is easy. If I can figure it out at 75 without my grandkids helping - it is easy! Blessings sir!
Thanks so much Dr Burke. I often try and use the "nothing is 100% safe and effective" argument. Especially when it comes to mandating. If someone is allergic to peanuts for instance, are we going to mandate they eat peanuts for the "safety" of others? It's absolute looney tunes.
going to keep your statement in mind. I am not comfortable with PEGs and when I saw that as an ingredient, I immediately decide not to get the jabs. But got ridiculed and called a stupid cow by family and friends. well former friends LOL
Clearly the world is full of good, honest workers and shitty liars. It’s just so upending when the good are vilified and to see how easily people are manipulated…
that for me is the truly scary part, how people totally without any knowledge judge you because you looked into things. When I told a biologist I know what I had read about the jabs, she said they were her colleagues and we should trust them. For me, that put her on the same shelf as them
I KNOW! My daughter was studying Neuroscience so all her friends at Uni were in the sciences, trying to get into med school. They ALL jabbed. My kid was like “WTF!? Did you not listen to ANY of the lectures!? It’s all contradicting itself!” Needless to say she didn’t jab and is taking her $ to open an icecream shoppe🤣🤣🤣🤣(don’t worry we didn’t pay SHIT for her education, it was all scholarships..we’re poor😬)
And the teacher's unions are despicable. My daughter was an elementary teacher for 10 years before she got disgusted and left to go into nursing. She refused to be a member of the union, but she was constantly being pressured to join.
Yes I quit the union early on- they did NOTHING for me. I only joined for lawsuit purposes as I was in the Spec. Ed. realm. I had 70 kids on my caseload at one point and they did NOTHING to help out with other speech paths who were in the same boat! Bunch of do-nothings looking for "easy" in a profession that was once considered honorable.
Maybe Medical School should now be called Advanced Pharmaceutical School
This should make everyone feel better..

I said the same thing to my husband. It’s not med school, it’s how to prescribe pills school.
Exactly. The last time I reluctantly went to the doctor the first thing they did was pull out the prescription pad after doing a search online for the "best drug" for my ailment.

Also make sure you forgo cancer screening. I’m sure you have a home remedy for that.
There's no home remedy for cancer.

That’s appalling.
To be fair, they do like to cut on people too. Oh, and run tests, lots and lots of tests and screenings.
Why don’t you stay home and make more room for those of us who might like to take care of ourselves without relying a crystal ball or snake medicine

They get their supposed nutrition education from the bloody pet food companies. They're horrified at the thought of feeding your cat/dog a species-appropriate diet (raw meat/bones/offal), and as a result have totally brainwashed the public.
But they make some good money cleaning the teeth of animals who eat the crap from bags, and pumping them with yearly vaxxes. Hmmm, almost like there's a conflict of interest or two there.
My local petco has a delicious assortment of cookies (sandwich-oreo-like) and ice cream treats for pets. My daughter begs me for them when we go there.
Ugh
RFK's book The Real Anthony Fauci talks about this.
‘… marketing name assigned to the symptoms it can provoke…’ Wouldn’t you say it was a ‘rebrand’ - formerly the Common Cold? Of course no vaccine ($$$$$) for Common Cold. Who would not howl with laughter if Pfizer said it had a vaccine against the Common Cold, which after some dupes tried it, it turned out not to stop you getting or spreading it. Nobody in their right minds would make fools of themselves telling others, insisting even, they should have it. Oh wait!
Very perceptive,bad luck all the dickheads promulgating all this steaming pile of dog shit around covid were not as perceptive,instead of them being so perfidious.
Davo 😊.
Yes, well said!
Was that the email, sadly not spam, containing the rubbish about masking harder based on the CDC's latest N95/KN95 pseudoscience? I got it via Mass General Brigham's "Patient Gateway" emails. Thank god that I'm no longer a patient of those lunatics.
No, the subject line was "Masking and COVID-19 Updates", sent out last evening (Feb 1).
Its mask psalm began with "Masks are a critical tool for preventing the spread of COVID-19".
And the traditional reading from the Book of Mengele started with "Getting vaccinated and boosted is the best way to protect against COVID-19".
Indeed, I was honored to receive the very same recital of catechisms!
The book of Mengele! That sums it all up
Medicine is in even more trouble if Gabriella decides to practice woke medicine. https://americanmind.org/salvo/woke-medicines-critical-harm/
Government meddling is driving out all but the Gabriellas.
My dad was a surgeon who practiced from around 1950 to the early 90s. I remember how furious he was when the pharmaceutical companies were allowed to start advertising their products on TV and in print.
Forgotten or enjoying being on Big Pharma’s payroll?
They do make it nice.
How? Getting research grants, sponsoring meetings, being invited out to lunch/dinner, having travel expense and enrolment fees paid to attend conventions, invites to a new drug launch in an exotic location - do bring wife/husband, offering the opportunity to be part of a clinical trial enrolling patients into it and administering the drug/placebo for a per capita fee, paid to do lectures organised by the company, being paid to speak favourably about a product, jobs in research, donation to buy a nice new piece of equipment for your department/practice. Is that enough for you? I used to be in the business - 25 years. Doctors are a venal lot.
But that's just their due as demi-gods!!
Oh, so you were the one giving the docs the freebies? And now you have religion?
It's baked into the cake in a hundred different ways. Here's a covid example: https://www.healthcarefinancenews.com/news/providers-get-greater-reimbursement-covid-19-vaccine
And people tell you they got the jab because they checked with their doctor who recommended it, said you’d be a fool not to. Why wouldn’t he/she?
Because they are out of sync with their inner wisdom.. it doesn't take a thousand hours of research to 'know' that injecting exotic gene modifiers and heavy metals directly into your body is beyond ludicrous.
My sister in law got the two Moderna shots but had become a little reluctant to get the booster. Later she said she got the booster after all simply because she went to her new doctor and was told she should get the booster. So she did, no further questions asked because the doctor had spoken.
Doc, I’m with you. People forget how essential pharmaceuticals are. I for one would be dead by now if it were not for advances made in pharmaceuticals, being Diabetic
I am not a fan of MDs but I would have a higher opinion of them if there were more like you. Thanks Dr. Matt.
I have been a physician for 40+ years. I have felt totally ashamed of the medical profession over these past 2.5 years. The lies that have been propagated over this time have been astonishing. Nothing, I repeat nothing, is 100% safe and effective. Natural immunity is not recognized. It’s ok to vaccinate pregnant women despite not being included in the trials. I could go on and on.
I am right with you. 50 years in medicine and shocked and ashamed of my colleagues. I did drug development. I read the Pfizer trial and limited data available - this "vaccine" should NEVER and I mean NEVER have been approved. What scares me so much Judy is that the adverse events are mechanistic - inherent in the spike protein and its wide distribution in the body. I believe everyone is getting some mico-clotting and inflammation but most are able to clear it. Others not so lucky.
Thank you. It gives us hope knowing that you and Judy are out there, when the profession seems to be just a monolithic machine feeding the serial felons in the pharmaceutical lobby.
Eric, there are thousands of doctors with us and even more nurses. When the tribunals reveal what has been done, people will be very angry. I hope we will form a Committee of those who did not Consent. I want every public health official and academic physician who visited this on our people to resign. I believe Pfizer like Enron will collapse as a company. Fraud vitiates any liability protection. Lincoln: "so still it must be said 'the judgments of the Lord, are true and righteous altogether'"
As an attorney who has been practicing more than 25 years, I am equally ashamed of the number of attorneys who have apparently forgotten the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights. Vaccine mandates. mask mandates, censorship, etc. The limited number of lawsuits and numerous bad decisions is very disappointing, although thankfully the Supreme Court got the OSHA rule right.
Boy, I sure hope you are right. I fear the perpetrators might escape justice, and enjoy lucrative speaking engagements and kickbacks à la Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld in the wake of Dick 'n' Don's Excellent Adventure in Iraq. By now the psychopaths currently at work have surpassed even their count of harm done to individual lives.
If you haven't caught it yet and would like something to show those on the fence, I find one of the top five presentations that could wake up reasonable people who are trying to comply their way out (the largest demographic?) is the recent five-hour panel of medical professionals convened by Sen Ron Johnson. You'll be familiar with most or all of the material, but I'll wager it would be news to most viewers, and quite alarming:

Or, for if/when YouTube cleanses it:
https://rumble.com/vt62y6-covid-19-a-second-opinion.html
Thanks, Eric
Excellent. So true
Recently watched The Big Short. I think big corps know that they can get away with murder. At least the execs can. I am skeptical that there will be a proper reckoning for this.
Since several doctors DO see this, how come all the rest just blindly follows the piper? Can they all be in bigharma's pocket? How can we ever trust a doc who went along?
They don’t question it when most of their colleagues accept it. Also, if somehow they do question it, they are derided.
I also see the expansion of "Big Hospital" gobbling up private practices and smaller hospitals contributing to this problem. License loss is a real threat as is professional/career reputation smearing, but so is losing their jobs. When you consider that the average medical school debt is $250,000, it puts them in quite a bind. Not excusing it or defending it, but I understand why people might take the easy road and keep their heads down:(
If you buy into the cult from the get go, there's no need to keep one's head down because you are golden.
That is yet another problem to be dealt with. Schools. No school should cost more than a medium house. That would solve a lot of problems to begin with !
You hit the nail on the head.
They're afraid of being cancelled
More than that, their licenses to practice medicine at all are at risk of being revoked!!! This is what happens when politics intervenes in medicine. Dr. Aaron Kheriaty and I think maybe Dr. Pierre Kory spoke about this at Senator Ron Johnson's Covid-19: A Second Opinion panel.
Spot on. Docs have been de-licensed for speaking truth to power. Jeopardizing one’s career and livelihood is scary.
“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.” Upton Sinclair
Gotta keep patients struggling so they are dependent on the goods behind the curtain (prescriptions, surgeries, other "therapies").
When it comes to dentists, the insistence that root canals are safe, and the complete ignorance of vitamin K2 is a dead giveaway that patient health is thrown under the income bus.
I realized Big Pharma was corrupt when they came down so hard on the use of vitamins and alternative therapies, herbs and the like.
YES. I remember that too--it happened shortly after I started my current career and gave me a chill. It was the revival of a thing I now realize that conventional medicine has done many times before. There was the branding of female healers and midwives as "witches" in order to relegate those domains to men who belonged to the pharma guild. Later even male healers who practiced with diet and herbs were castigated in order to further empower those who were all-in for pharma, literally poisoning patients with mercury, lead, arsenic, and petroleum and also bleeding their patients, sometimes to death. My grandfather's doctor liked to pull his patients' teeth. Like...all of their teeth. Isn't it funny WHO is called crazy sometimes? Often, I believe it is narcissistic scapegoating. Where I live, home birth is practically illegal. And the covid situation, with masks and isolation and impoverishment and weird injections...It is getting to the point again now where, if a health strategy or intervention is NOT extremely dangerous, it is called "quackery". Hopefully people get to a breaking point and start calling BS on it at some point.
I mentioned another movie in another comment here but I'll also recommend The Constant Gardener, which is relevant to this topic. I am busy watching movies recommended on Healther Heying's Substack. I think the last one, which I haven't gotten to yet, is Dallas Buyer's Club.
There has to be a certain critical mass of dissenting doctors and scientists and then the others will dare join in. Safety in numbers.
I think you are right. Lots of medical people were afraid to loose their livelihood. I wonder how many would have refused abs if not for that. And how many regret knowing what is now unremovable in their bodies
Talked to an old High School friend last evening. She developed clotting in her left leg soon after the vaccines. She is just now getting back to walking (months of rest and therapy)- she bad mouthed relatives who chose to not get the shot(s). I kept my mouth shut, but she has NO idea of any of the possible correlations of the shot/clotting- and would poo-poo it if I actually brought it up, I believe.
Which means she will get in line for any booster
The other day I told a patient I would be reporting the fact that she suddenly developed two very serious autoimmune diseases after her 3 covid vaccines to VAERS. The next visit, she told me she looked into that idea on the internet, and she believes she may have caught covid-19 without knowing it, and that a wild infection rather than the vaccines might more likely be the cause. It's not out of the question, but I found the situation really revealing with regard to both of our biases. My bias tells me that our immune systems are better equipped to handle pathogens and toxins introduced via mucus membranes rather than injection. The mainstream view, it seems, is that if authority figures want you to do it, it's probably not dangerous, but if it is wild, it is more likely to be dangerous.
She has to rationalize getting the shots somehow I guess! And yikes to that way of thinking. But I think that's how most are "thinking"- thanks for reporting to VAERS. I don't think many are!
The real ER DOC. I like that 'real' part of your name tag.!
I also like what you said. And you have no idea how high my heart jumped when you said: I believe everyone is getting some mico-clotting and inflammation but most are able to clear it. Others not so lucky. Well at least that gave me a momentary heart jump. My son took the vax to keep his job. Now, in my retirement, when I'm supposed to have no worries, I have many worries.
Yes we are real not fake. Please don't worry. Fortunately in great majority there is no problem (except it's not effective). My son got t 2 jabs early 21 before we had the 'real' data'. . I got 2 jabs same time. I have had 2 pericarditis/myocarditis cases in my clinic - both were very soon after 2nd dose or booster. And both were mild. I see no evidence of long term damage from the vaccine except more susceptibility to variant infections. Others may disagree but our bodies are miracles of creation (yes, not random products of chemical evolution) and are designed to heal from insults.
One can only hope.
Me again. I see the words...Give Gift under your comment. Do you have a substack page? If not what does that mean? And thanks for your additional positive message.
Gee, I don't see that and don't know what it means. No substack page. I follow Steve Kirsch and bad cattitude. Both are very bright and I find them to be accurate.
We need to speak out as Docs. I am a Triple boarded DeBakey trained heart surgeon, just retired after 20,000 operations or so. Real ER dic, do a substack page! You are wise. Share it please. Substack is easy. If I can figure it out at 75 without my grandkids helping - it is easy! Blessings sir!
Yours also has "give gift". Most of us do suddenly. Weird, huh?
Oh maybe substack is soliciting. I have a paid subscription to Steve Kirsch so I can log in.
I'm praying they can clear it and the damage is not just cumulative.
I know a health pro involved in researching and testing respiratory drugs. She said exactly the same thing about the vaccines
Thanks so much Dr Burke. I often try and use the "nothing is 100% safe and effective" argument. Especially when it comes to mandating. If someone is allergic to peanuts for instance, are we going to mandate they eat peanuts for the "safety" of others? It's absolute looney tunes.
going to keep your statement in mind. I am not comfortable with PEGs and when I saw that as an ingredient, I immediately decide not to get the jabs. But got ridiculed and called a stupid cow by family and friends. well former friends LOL
Yes and we're all different.
Would love to have you for my Primary Care Physician! I feel the same way about the teaching profession. Full of non-thinkers and lazy people!
Clearly the world is full of good, honest workers and shitty liars. It’s just so upending when the good are vilified and to see how easily people are manipulated…
that for me is the truly scary part, how people totally without any knowledge judge you because you looked into things. When I told a biologist I know what I had read about the jabs, she said they were her colleagues and we should trust them. For me, that put her on the same shelf as them
I KNOW! My daughter was studying Neuroscience so all her friends at Uni were in the sciences, trying to get into med school. They ALL jabbed. My kid was like “WTF!? Did you not listen to ANY of the lectures!? It’s all contradicting itself!” Needless to say she didn’t jab and is taking her $ to open an icecream shoppe🤣🤣🤣🤣(don’t worry we didn’t pay SHIT for her education, it was all scholarships..we’re poor😬)
That is awesome, I love it!
Smart girl ! I wish you all the best and lots of customers ! An icecream shop is another form of antidepressant and much better than pills !
And the teacher's unions are despicable. My daughter was an elementary teacher for 10 years before she got disgusted and left to go into nursing. She refused to be a member of the union, but she was constantly being pressured to join.
Yes I quit the union early on- they did NOTHING for me. I only joined for lawsuit purposes as I was in the Spec. Ed. realm. I had 70 kids on my caseload at one point and they did NOTHING to help out with other speech paths who were in the same boat! Bunch of do-nothings looking for "easy" in a profession that was once considered honorable.
Are you taking new patients? I need a new doctor after all this.
My husband is a doctor with 35 years of experience. He says the same thing.
thank you for being one of those with eyes and brains. I think so many docs are paid off by bigharma it is a real shame.
