Analyzing pandemic and vaccine data is a highly specialized expertise, a pursuit where amateurs can easily find themselves looking stupid. I learned this lesson the hard way.

The Appalling Censorship of Dr. Katrin Kuhn
. . . and then they came for the infectious disease epidemiologists.
How Censorship Fuels Vaccine Skepticism
Social media censors think they are doing God’s work removing content at odds with the Biden Administration’s vaccine narrative. In fact, they are fueling growing vaccine resistance and heightening the anger of many people who are a lot smarter than the media would have you believe.
FDA’s Unsung Heroes: Marion Gruber and Phil Krause
The public’s ignorance of the heroism of outgoing FDA vaccine experts Marion Gruber and Phil Krause is yet another example of how the corporate media refuses to hold the Biden Administration and Dr. Fauci accountable for their ineptitude managing the pandemic.
The CDC’s and NIH’s Conflicted Research
ProPublica in December 2019, when Dr. Fauci wasn’t yet a household name, published its “Dollars for Profs” investigation that revealed widespread financial and other conflicts in studies financed by the National Institutes of Health. ProPublica’s findings have taken on increased significance, particularly the funding of a vaccine research nonprofit whose executive vice president had a lucrative financial stake in a biotech company with exclusive rights to his research.
The company has partnered with a Chinese biotech to launch a Covid-19 vaccine in greater China. The vaccine was approved under President Trump’s warp speed initiative.
FDA’s Alarming Brain Drain
Wake up, people! Something is very amiss at the FDA. The only science required to understand what’s going on is the political kind.
CDC, A.A., ESG and America’s PC Epidemic
Political correctness has claimed the CDC, an agency supposedly driven by science. In the process, the agency undermined one of the fundamental tenets of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Meanwhile, an initial and once prominent advocate of socially responsible investing has admitted to the error of his ways. I’m proud that he lives in Toronto, where I was born and raised.
The Political Defiance of Dr. Marty Makary
I typically avoid predictions, but I’m confident in saying that if America gets through this very dark period, history will judge Dr. Marty Makary very kindly.
Outsource the FDA to Private Equity
Although not by design, the Wall Street Journal’s FDA approval coverage of Pfizer’s Covid vaccine made a compelling argument as to why the food and drug watchdog should be outsourced to private equity.
The Incompetence of Covid Czar Jeffrey Zients
Does the name Jeffrey Zients mean anything to you? It should, and if the corporate media was doing an even half-assed job covering the Biden Administration’s response to the pandemic, the public would be clamoring for his resignation.
