A fine article by two fine scientists. In my home Province of British Columbia the entire COIVD period was marked by a complete suppression of scientific discussion in the mainstream press. An endless series of televised lectures from our Provincial Health Officer, filled with COVID misinformation (e.g. "we are getting more and more serious cases in younger people", "the vaccine will stop the spread of COVID". etc etc.) went completely unexamined by the press. Literally no critical questions were asked. It is not just the science establishment, but the whole apparatus of informed public discussion failed. This is correctly identified by the authors of this piece as the central most critical failure: if we cannot publicly discuss the science and the medical options freely, our policy responses will be sub-optimal, almost by definition. Go team freedom!

The BigT, same here in Ontario. As you know we get the American stations too. It was the same one sidedness. We were surrounded. We weren’t allowed to hear from any doctor or scientists with opposing views without them being belittled, discredited and demonized. It was total propaganda.

World law enforcement agencies must .... Arrest Bill Gates, Walensky, Birx, Fauci, Daszak and all DOD, CIA, CDC, NIH, WHO, FDA, HHS and big pharma and big tech. executives involved.

Fraud and homicide are ...not included in the total immunity from legal liability agreement under the PREP Act for the big Pharma criminals!

Nuremberg Code and RICO laws apply now! The DOJ better wake the Fk Up and get busy!

It would be extremely interesting to actually see Peter Hotez stand up for his views on Covid take a real stage and debate some of the people he so easily attacks from afar, from the safety and leisure of his home or office. This way he can confront people without having to argue against a walking, talking human being that can easily expose him for the bought and paid for charlatan that he is.

Just my 2 cents...

He was initially speaking actual science about the jabs. Until President dementia was sworn in. Then everything magically changed.

I couldn't agree more! Freedom of speech, discussion, debate and the ability to point out flaws in existing theories and ideas is the very lifeblood of science. Without it, 'science' becomes dogma.

Do you see the propaganda in this?

Annals Graphic Medicine - Socially Determined

Annals of Internal Medicine, American College of Physicians

The perpetuation of Covid theater, "social distancing" as beneficial (no doubt includes masking) when it's completely ineffective. Stay home if you're coughing and contagious. That's your social distancing. Anything else is theater of the absurd.

"Take your meds! ALL of them! Do as you're told to do by your DOCTOR(s)!!" Obey!

Or you can choose to be selfishly and dangerously "non compliant" and cross streets without looking both ways for traffic and sit in your home in misery, sickly, pathetic, alone and worthless. Obey! For your own good!

This cartoon graphic is dangerous propaganda. It gets medical professionals to view their patients as complete idiots or dangerously antisocial. Setting the stage for mandatory reporting, quarantine orders, confinement, 5150 psych holds, etc for the disobedient.

Medical tyranny doesn't just happen overnight. It's built up over time on top of propaganda like this that psychologically primes medical professionals to look upon the disobedient as less-than human, dangerous and selfish "others" who recklessly endanger everyone else while they harm themselves. This is how the dogmatic tools of oppression become widely adopted. Insidious propaganda like this sets into the minds of the medical professionals. And becomes their actionable truth.

Is it possible to get the names of the actual people in the government who pressured Zuckerberg? ?

To say “The Biden-Harris Administration” suggests that it it sound some sort of massif devoid of humans.

Even though they got a pass from the New York Times and the Washington Post - they mos def do not deserve anonymity.

It is a Marxist genocidal conspiracy.

In the US RICO Laws allow all to be arrested for the same crime..

On small problem. The DOJ/FBI and the Feral Courts are complicit!

The insert on this substack about benzodiazepines makes me so angry. In 2001 at the age of 16 my daughter got her first part time job working as a cashier at Bulk Barn. She was so nervous which gave her the shakes. She decided to make a doctor’s appointment for help. Our family doctor, Dr. Norma Wright put her on high doses of lorazepam and propranolol. I started seeing changes in my daughter. She’d cry at the drop of a hat. I concluded it was drug related. I told her the drugs were effecting her. She made another appointment but the doctor just reduced her dosage much to my dismay. I continued to see changes in my daughter and begged her to get off the drugs. My husband intervened and told me to leave her alone as the doctor knew what she was doing. I was so upset. I started researching for papers on the drug. There was an excellent paper out of the U.k which totally alarmed me. I wanted my daughter to read it but she had no interest, she was well addicted. I worried so much and talked to a few doctors including our family doctor who all told me there was nothing to worry about. Nobody would listen to me. My daughter was on lorazepam for almost 13 years. She also in that time was drinking along with the lorazepam. We paid to get her in to rehab at Homewood. The councillor told us that benzodiazepines are highly addictive and has set her up for addiction for the rest of her life. Also, I read that paper from the U.K and fear for her future.

Use of the word "misinformation" is often a technique to turn information into "missinformation," important information that goes "missing."

It was middle school or high school when I first heard about Galileo and science suppression/punishment. So, this has been going on for centuries/millenia and will likely continue indefinitely. Y'all just need to get better at combatting it. It is not going away.

The fake religions of the world must stay in their lane. Telling the masses how to go to heaven, not telling us how the heavens go!

We are deeply grateful for your courageous, superbly credentialed voices.

Suppression of peer reviewed medical information is the most unconscionable. Just go to pubmed.gov , type in a search string, and see what has NOT been published in the main stream media. This information is easily found. See https://www.saveusnow.org.uk/covid-vaccine-scientific-proof-lethal/

Cutting edge physical science is a victim too. See

I'm surprise "they" don't rein Hotez in, his arguments are so infantile.

Physicians of differing opinions have always been encouraged to discuss their viewpoints. That’s how innovation & new treatments are discovered. That’s how medicine progresses. It’s insane that Hotez thinks discussion is a problem.
