I don’t watch CNN unless there’s a Presidential Debate that I can’t watch anywhere else.

So that’s what? A couple of times every 4 years?

“ Berenson isn’t some random dude.”
———————————————————-

That’s excellent!

Please, list his qualifications.
Where did he go to college and what was his major?
What experience does he have?
Did he write any papers?

That’ll be super.

Sooooooo, if everything is a fraud except Twitter and Facebook, perhaps you’re wrong?

There was a day here on FreeRepublic when someone would be laughed out of a thread for posting “news” or even scientific information from unverified unknown unqualified sources from Twitter or Facebook.

My oh my……times sure have changed.

I left off a lot.

So, you do know true sources of information.
Very good.

Fauci has credentials.

Walensky has credentials.

Collins has credentials.

Murthy has credentials.

The eggheads at Big Pharma are credentialed.

So are the geeks at the FDA.

The docs who’ve been lying through their teeth to me about CoupFlu are all credentialed.

Do you see where I’m going with this...?

Yes……coming from the frighten man that roams anti-vaccine threads allllllllllll day long.

Afraid of Covid, but also afraid of the vaccine.
Goes to bed afraid……wakes up afraid,
What a sad situation.

Don’t be afraid anymore. Have faith, this will be over soon and you’ll still be standing. I’m confidant.

You’ll have zero credibility, but, you’ll still be able to troll threads and posters that say things you don’t like. See? Cheer up.

You obviously haven’t been keeping up with the insanity of modern medicine. How many of them are promoting genital mutilation? Still beating the cholesterol dead horse? Promoting the food pyramid?

Now with covid it has become apparent they have simply lost their minds altogether. The way they use the PCR test is simply fraudulent. “We detected a virus, therefore you are sick and must isolate.” Nevermind that viral shedding can take months, and some viruses are never eradicated from the body.

When politics and greed enter the picture, medical authorities have all the credibility and character of your average identity thief.

Yes I do.

Doesn’t matter what credentials or education anyone has or uses, as long as they fit the narrative you like to hear, you’ll follow any Tom, Dick, or Harry on Twitter.

But I already know that.

Evidence matters.

The scientific method matters.

Honesty matters.

Ethics matter.

Many of your revered credentialed don’t give a rat’s a$$ about any of the above.

Ok, I just can’t.

From genital mutilation to PCR test??
Ummmm…..naw.

Modern medicine has saved millions and millions of lives.

If you take medication, had surgery, or suffered from any affliction, modern medicine and “Big Pharma” has kept you alive and well.

If you have been super duper healthy and not needed modern medicine, don’t worry, at some point in your life you will.

Now, will you deny treatment in your desperate hour of need?
Will you refuse cardiac medication? Cancer treatment?
I doubt it.

You know, you might just be correct.
Many don’t care, but many do.

At least I can verify who they are or what they are and they’re not some dude on BitChute doing magical magnet tricks or on Twitter.

So really, we all have a job to do in order to get good information.

We need to sift through the B.S.

Random Twitter users make that nearly impossible.
They may not even be using their real names.
Or job titles.

There are likely several factors in place:

-Fewer medical procedures in 2020 due to COVID restrictions. While one might think that would have an uptick in deaths, many of those surgeries had higher risk of death from complications than from the underlying cause. (Infection after knee surgery for example). Medical malpractice is a common killer.

-Those who had medical procedures postponed, especially in the UK with its socialized medicine, had their health worsen due to the delays in treatment.

-The Jim Jones Jab is attacking their immune systems, either outright killing them or making them susceptible to other illnesses.

-The Jim Jones Jab is causing new strains of COVID that the weakened immune systems of the "vaccinated" can't fight off.

There is a pattern of dishonesty here. If someone is willing to participate in the destruction of sexual identity, particularly of children, do you really believe they won’t sell out to promote a bogus drug?

Most of the lives saved by modern medicine come from a handful of discoveries: antibiotics, vaccines, cleanliness, and sanitation. These were obvious “low hanging fruit” improvements with tremendous benefits. Now it is far harder to make a meaningful change in the health of people and far easier to just fake it. I have an advanced degree. I have done research. I know how hard it is to make a novel contribution.

In the last fifty years a tremendous amount of what has been promoted by the medical industry has been far less about health and very much more about promoting the medical industry. Because that is a far easier thing to accomplish than actually improving the health of people.

The AMA does not exist to make you healthy. It exists to make the AMA healthy. The same goes for all the organizations you listed.

This is a well known and demonstrable fact: organizations are run by those loyal to the organization, not the organization’s goals.

Until you grasp that fact you are nothing more than a rube, a mark for the unscrupulous.

Why the broad brush?

My primary doc is a Polish Catholic lad with teenage children and is very traditional. It would be beyond his ability to even address sexual issues like transgenderism. He goes to Church and is a well known contributor to our community.

My Cardiologist whom I just recently saw, enters the room wearing and polo shirt with “Wounded Warrior Project” emblem on the left breast.
We talk about our dogs (one of his hunting dogs injured his knee), and we chat about guns.

Both Doctors are conservative and believe in traditional morals and values.

The sexual deviancy you point out as if it has contaminated all professionals in the medical fields just isn’t there.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The Low Hanging fruit you speak of tells me you dont really grasp what advancements have been made since the discovery of Penicillin.

Almost all forms of cancer was a death sentence.
Diabetics wouldn’t make it to 30 years of age.
Prenatal child care and even surgery in the womb to repair a heart defect.
Premature babies now live.
Quality of life would include knee, hip, replacements.
Transplant surgeries are achieved.
Polio, Small Pox, Measles, Mumps (making young boys sterile) have all but been eradicated.

All in the last 50 years.

The Apostles were all sinners. Yet Jesus still chose them to carry out good work. Doctors aren’t perfect. They’re sinners too, just like the rest of us. But for the most part, they carry out good work.

I hope you live a very healthy life. I truly do.

But if old age or things catch up with you, and you’re down in cardiac arrest, when EMS arrives and if they’re Advance Life Support, they’ll intubate you, then start shooting Epi, and Atropine down the endo tube. If you come back, remember, everything they did began less than 50 years ago.

I’m not sure how your beliefs tie into your anti-Covid-vaccine stance.
You can skip the vaccine without condemning the entire medical community.

I never said anything about your doctors. Bringing up what great guys your personal doctors are is a red herring and you know it.

None of the things you mention have anywhere near the impact of the low hanging fruit I mentioned, except that you basically repeated my point about vaccines.

My basic point is that over the last fifty years the medical industry has lost its way, and the COVID response is a result of that. It isn’t just the vaccine, for that matter it isn’t even the vaccine itself. It is how they want to use it, sell it and the tremendous dishonesty and incompetence surrounding everything COVID related. It is part of a pattern that I brought up of fake research, fake data, and fake treatments.

That doesn’t mean all progress has stopped or that every medical professional is compromised. It does mean that as a medical consumer you need to be a lot more educated and think a lot more critically about what your doctor is telling you. Like everyone else he is trusting entirely compromised authorities and experts who have figured out how lucrative dishonesty can be. His personal character is not the problem.

Yale graduate, former NY Times writer and now author, independent writer and commentator, with numerous appearearance on Tucker and Bannon shows.

In this case, he's simply reporting an elevation in the number of overall deaths in the UK.

The guy isn't some "random dude on Twitter".

You're welcome.
