While this may have been many years ago (it would have to be greater than 25), that would be an illegal kickback today and the physician and drug rep would both go to jail. With the quite sophisticated surveillance of CMS, I am confident this would not happen today. So I am hoping this is not just another cheap shot at the medical profession that is so eagerly ordained by many on this forum who have nothing better to do than post half truths from bloggers and crap websites and try to convince themselves and others that they actually know what they are talking about.
You are correct. I am a currently practicing physician, and this article is a complete an utter big pile of steaming doc feces.
I would trust zero what a vaxx doc has to say. I seem to recall hospitals getting extra money if they put people on ventilators.

I lived in that house from ‘94-’05. I am almost certain this conversation took place around ‘96-’97. I certainly hope you’re right. The way bribes take place now is a book contract or a “donation” to a “charity” fund. In the Democratic party, you go see a part official and make a donation to the party. That person then sees to it that a portion of the donation goes to the designated person. (Know that one for a fact. My uncle did it to get a waiver to avoid a new law, the intent of which was to solicit bribes. This was in Medina, Ohio circa ‘75.)
