Walking in NYT's shoes for as long as I can stomach it, it's understandable. I'd be pretty embarrassed to if I kept getting dunked on by a super dank meme lord who still managed to prove himself smarter, more honest, and better with data than I was.

It's because they're scared!

The AMERICAN DENTAL ASSOCIATION came out with a post similar to this yesterday about misinformation from "people who don't understand science" on the internet. I could use help growing our effort to involve more dentists to be part of the movement. We are writing a white paper to deliver to the ADA because like the AMA, they are totally captured!! Here's my story:

I am a dentist in Chapel Hill, NC who was censored on our statewide dental forum for discussing natural immunity.  I have been extremely active in research and educating people about our missed opportunity to encourage prevention and early treatment for COVID.  I am also seriously concerned about the current push by our profession to promote vaccination to our staff and patient population.  Based on how these vaccines were designed, choosing to be vaccinated is an individual's choice because there only benefit to the recipient is to at best to mitigate symptoms.  Since they cannot stop contraction or spread, there is no public benefit to mass vaccination with a novel therapeutic that has no long term safety data.

Like many dentists, we returned to full operation and treatment of patients in the midst of the pandemic.  We had no other option, we had to choose faith over fear because unlike all of the telemedicine visits doctors were offering, dentistry is hands on, with masks off.  Our profession is highly educated on sterilization and PPE and returning to patient care was not very different considering pandemic implications.  I spent a lot of time studying how to keep my staff, my patients and my family safe but became frustrated by the lack of dialogue amongst our profession about prevention and early treatment of COVID.  Especially since dentistry prides itself on these regular discussions with our patients about their oral care.

When I was censored on our statewide forum for promoting natural immunity while citing The Lancet, I challenged the other dentists about how we could be an OPEN Forum if we can't discuss emerging science.  Eventually my post was restored and I took to task the topic of vaccine efficacy and safety.  The ADA for months had been suggesting it is our moral obligation to be vaccinated and to educate our patients.  In a field that encourages adequate informed consent before any procedure, I was disappointed to learn that vaccine recipients are not warned of possible SERIOUS adverse effects.  Those willing to speak on the Forum called me tin foil hat wearing and suggested that I should have my credentials stripped for promoting anything other than the vaccines are 100% safe and effective.

Several brave souls reached out to me privately and we have formed a group to work on an open letter/white paper to the ADA and other downstream dental organizations that are in lockstep with the mask up and give everyone a vaccine narrative.  Recently the ADA came out with an update to their ethical standards of practice, in which they made the suggestion that denying treatment to an unvaccinated patient is not considered unethical and perhaps is a responsibility in some cases, for the safety of the community.

Our small group of dentists is appalled at the position of the ADA on masks, vaccines and the ethical denial of treatment.  We are hoping by reaching out to individuals with a broad population base, we can find other dentists outside of NC to join our effort and have our voices heard.

Dang, if only I lived in NC. I live in PR and just last Monday, two days ago, I went for my semiannual cleaning, and my dentist said I need to be vaxxed.

I mean, my *now-former* dentist said that.

I'm afraid I'm going to hear that

Expand full comment

I started with a new dentist last week. As I slowly cracked the front door and crept in without my mask, just waiting to get yelled at, I slowly looked around to find that nobody at the desk or in the waiting room was masked. Phew! I asked the receptionist, "No masks?" and she replied, "No, you have individual rights here!" They did not mention the jab at all. I left feeling pretty good about the place!

Expand full comment

I just made a tentative appointment with a new dentist in Virginia Beach. It's outside my insurance coverage, so I'll have to pay OOP. First appointment is 2 hours and nearly $500. Ouch. But less ouch than getting jabbed with experimental drugs.

I'll "interview" one more in VA Beach on Monday, and then I'll give my current dentist one last chance to get his head out of his arse.

My holistic dentist still double masks despite his vaccination. I've realized he was holistic in name only. He just wants to cash in on the holistic crowd. I'm back to driving to the big city for holistic dental care.

That is absolutely stunning. But, I suppose I've seen enough these past two years that I shouldn't be shocked.

Wow. Nothing like that at my dentist. Just had my 6 month checkup last week. This time: I came in with a hygienist coming back from break both of us w/out mask. No questions at all or temp check on entering, I sat in waiting area maskless, until woman came in half-masked with nose out, then I put on one to be polite. No peroxide gargle & they're cleaning/polishing again.

Wow. Awful. Thank you for speaking out.

ugh! I went to my Dentist's partner for a check up last year and told him I had had Covid months previous. He said I should get the Jab. I began to doubt his medical knowledge.

My regular dentist retired early and now I wonder who I'll see...know any good dentists in Southern New York

I am hoping to create a movement within dentistry and create a network of dentists that can think critically.

"I was disappointed to learn that vaccine recipients are not warned of possible SERIOUS adverse effects"

I made this point elsewhere, and many times:

When you're watching TV and a drug commercial comes on, at least HALF of the commercial time is spent warning us of the actual and potential side effects.

When you're watching TV and a WuFlu drug commercial comes on...they spend literally ZERO time warning us of the actual and potential side effects.

I wonder why the Chinese virus experimental drugs are exempt from having to warn us of the downsides of the jabs...(no, I don't actually wonder).

Expand full comment

I have yet to see a pharma commercial for any of the vaxxes, but we don't have paid TV service, we stream.

Here in MI I have seen many 'PSA' type spots paid for by our state. No warnings or disclaimers, as so far they have all been snippets of 'average' people, proclaiming their 'reasons' for being vaxxed.

Expand full comment

Me neither, it's only been PSAs.

And yeah, as if I'm going to take health and medical advice from TOTAL strangers in a TV PSA/commercial.

Expand full comment

My dentist informed me at my last visit that I would have to have a Covid test before my next six monthly cleaning, since I declined the experimental biologicals. The only thing this told me was he did not understand the science which says vaxxed patients can contract and transmit Covid. But oh well, it isn’t my job to educate my dentist. Will find a new dentist. I have zero faith in the present one🥰

Expand full comment

It would be interesting to ask your dentist, "Do you require vaxxed patients to submit Covid test results, too? Because the vaxxed can and do catch and spread the virus, too. So I'm wondering whether you're being consistent, or discriminatory?"

Expand full comment

Oh, I know this is flat out discrimination. But I also know the sheeple won’t budge💕💕

Expand full comment

You wouldn't have access to resources to be able to refer a dentist in Puerto Rico who *doesn't* require patients to be vaxxed, would you? Or perhaps in the Virginia Beach area, or in southern Maine/seacoast New Hampshire?

I suspect dentists in those to areas of the mainland aren't as scared or as ignorant as Puerto Rico's dentists, so I may have ok luck finding one on my own in the States. But, it won't be covered by my insurance, so if there's a dentist in Puerto Rico you can refer, that would be terrific.

And my apologies for using this Substack as a personal bulletin-board.

Expand full comment

I hope it was not bad to make this post?? I am so frustrated and I don't do social media other than Substack. Not sure how to 'spread the word'? I do not have connections for you yet but I am working to create a parallel dental society that supports medical freedom and ethical practice.

I always found it interesting that one of the most comprehensive explanations of the ineffectiveness of masks was from 2016 on an oral health site…that incidentally was taken down *on purpose* as soon as masking became polarized.

Interestingly, they now also link to this disclaimer:

"If you are looking for “Why Face Masks Don’t Work: A Revealing Review” by John Hardie, BDS, MSc, PhD, FRCDC, it has been removed. The content was published in 2016 and is no longer relevant in our current climate."

In fact, the content is MORE RELEVANT THAN EVER in our current climate. As if the validity of scientific content is subject to political winds.

If it was relevant in 2016, it remains relevant until AND UNLESS it is rebutted persuasively by newer credible science.

Expand full comment

Do they rent cats out for photo-ops?

Expand full comment

I for one am grateful to the crack investigative reporting team over at the NYT for uncovering what will undoubtedly prove to be one of the stories of the century: Catgate. Who knew that the real propagandists were not those purveying so-called information about various virus variants (aka "scariants") that we're hearing so much of these days, but the "other people and organizations that are peddling misinformation," the cat propagandists who are responsible for all manner of fake news and misinformation. Assigning responsibility will be hard because there's so much blame to go around these days: Covid19, Inflation, Murder, Theft, Illegal Immigration, and the infamous Misinformation! Probably all of these irritating issues have been exacerbated by cats. Or at least looking at pictures of cats.

Even though the NYT article states: "The posts with the animals do not directly spread false information," the article infers that just looking at cats will do a person in and convince them to believe, well, anything! Where do you think that Obi-Wan learned his Jedi Mind Trick? You got it, meow friend.

Fortunately, when the NYT uses animals as clickbait, they use a special spray that inoculates their readers from being sucked in by the photos and cute animal stories. Here are some examples: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/12/learning/lesson-plans/lesson-of-the-day-2021-has-been-a-bad-year-for-manatees.html and https://www.nytimes.com/topic/subject/cats and https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/26/us/zoo-animals-twitter.html. Don't worry, you can click on and read those NYT stories without any fear that you might be persuaded by the propaganda from nearby articles on the NYT website.

I’m tempted to send all writers at the NYT a large box filled with of cat turds for the holiday season - to show them how much I love their commitment to excellence and good journalism. Nothing says “New York Times, I appreciate you” like a big fat case of toxoplasmosis. LONG LIVE EL GATO!

On a different note, I’ve been dreaming of something special for the holiday. What if we take all the Red states and people who believe in freedom, civil liberty, The constitution, free speech and secede from the union. I’m so tired of progressives and lockdowns and fake Fauci scientists. Let’s just leave them behind and form a new country. We can even build a wall to keep the New Yorkers and Californians out. We can leave Fauci, Pelosi, AOC, the squad, The FDA the CDC, the NIH, the NYT and the rest of the dirty corrupt swamp behind. The government should build roads and bridges but stay the hell out of everything else. A New Republic full of hard working capitalists. A new country with an army of Bad Cats. And the baddest cat of all, our new kick A$$ president El GATO. Let’s GO Brandon! VIVA EL GATO!!!!!!!

No vaccine mandates. Seriously. What better way to say F YOU BRANDON! Let’s just leave. We need a new country. We need some lawyers to draw up the papers and draw up a new border

The time is now. This is what El GATO has been talking about. It’s time to leave the sheep alone. It’s time to WAKE UP AND MOBILIZE THE OTHER LIONS. Let freedom ring baby! Let’s blow outta this mess.
