Oh, come now. These are upstanding professionals who care about granny and the children. They would never let money get in the way of good sound science. I wish we could all stop being so cynical.

That should be totally illegal. Anyone who can enlighten me as to why it's not? (Serious question).

Very serious question indeed (to mildly misread you).

It's not illegal because that would get in the way of profits. That is sadly the only logical option. I'm from Germany and things are pretty disheartening here as well, but as far as I'm aware, the U.S. governments over the decades have been the most effective in the world at legalizing and even institutionalizing corruption, especially when it comes to the health sector.

Indeed. I had no idea of the scale of corruption in these agencies, and now don't trust anything they say at all. Perhaps one upside of the covid scandal is the exposure of this evil.

Yes, many people of good heart, and, sadly, better long-term health prospects than those who've been had, have been stirred up and smelled the foul stench emanating from the establishment. Might just be a net positive in the long run. But our sacrifices as a human family are indescribable.

VRBPAC & ACIP are given waivers to slither by their conflicts of interest and it has been going on for decades. How do they get away with it? Biotech & pharma lobbyist in Washington have given millions of dollars to Congress & the Senate members (via pharma) who could stop this but they turn a blind eye to the conflict because they want the money to stay in office.

That's not correct. They are not waived. The rules are just not enforced.

This has crossed the line from good old "one hand washes the other" to straight up blood money.

I wonder what the nature of payment was for the $3,550.79 he got from Pfizer in 2018? Junkets with wining/dining and travel/lodging covered? Consulting? He seems to be quite popular with Pharma. Am looking forward to the day when your "Plan B" can be implemented....

Well, to be fair, this rot began when men calling themselves physicians began calling wise women "witches." Professional competition and the genius of branding.

This is Disgusting. How is this allowed??? It’s not! This guy should have his license revoked!!! Look up everyone on the FDA and AICP and Vaccine committe and publish all the names of people who voted for phizer and other vaccines who took bribes from phizer or other pharmaceutical companies. This must be published! These corrupt people must have their license removed!
