How Pharmaceutical Companies Control the Narrative with Sharyl Attkisson

In this conversation with Sharyl Attkisson, I, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, delve into how pharmaceutical companies manipulate media narratives through their advertising power, causing journalists to self-censor. We also examine how regulatory agencies like the FDA and CDC are influenced by pharmaceutical funding, which undermines public trust in their decisions. This episode highlights the pressing need for critical, independent thinking in healthcare to protect public interests.

There was a hospital in Colorado still in existence in the 1970s which cared for people who had reactions to the smallpox vaccines. I worked for a nurse who left this hospital because she could no longer bear to watch children die slowly as their skin sluffed off and their bodies disintegrated internally.

Thank you so much for this interview. I am anxiously awaiting my copy of Sharyl's book. I use Sharyl's TED talk on astroturfing to help my students identify valid sources of information.

If tests were undergone on the Amish it would probably be found that they who practice their lifestyle have good well functioning immunological systems.

Let’s be clear: unions aren’t evil. The teachers were just as misled as everyone else because of the inaccuracies pushed by public health authorities. I agree that the CDC Director should not be making decisions based entirely on the wishes of members of any particular union, but Rochelle Walensky may have wanted to know what their concerns were. She made lots of bad decisions, however she arrived at them.

[@dominicfilanowski7911]

Also a lot of conflating small-time teachers unions like UTLA with national teachers unions (NEA and AFT) that are not affiliated.
To the best of my knowledge, the two big national teachers unions (NEA and AFT) were not involved with the coercion, masking and keeping schools closed.

Doctors are doing a classic demonstration being the clever people they undoubtedly are are expressing classic compartilisation willfull blindness...to this .
This is the most traumatising and shocking revrlation to me of all.
They no longer take or have forgotton the first compass northstar orientation balance of compassion and professional dispassion titled the Hippocratic Oath...

I think BMJ's Peter Doshi said that much literature in his journal must be considered unreliable. Was the mentioned Lancet editor named?
