The ‘whoa’ was for the way the tv doc slipped in the cause of heart disease as diet, exercise, and ‘covid jabs’ in the interview. The newsreader almost had a stroke and tried to get him to back off the position. He did not and discussed the evidence. Delicious.
Yes statins have been pushed for years. As I recall, in the mid-2000s, Eric Topol, a leading cardiologist suggested they be put in the drinking water because of their safety and efficacy, for the betterment of society.
I was put on statins a while back - worst 10 days of my life. No sleep but when I could sneak in a little sleep I had nasty nightmares. I was crabby, brain fog, etc. I told my doctor “no way”. So now my record shows an allergy to statins. Now on Zetia and Cholestoff and numbers are great. Say NO to statins. Besides, at my age, to start up now shows no positive effects in the literature, so why bother?
