You know, doctors do make money off vaccines they give to patients. They not only get per-shot amounts, but they also get bonuses for how many they do. There’s incentives built-in to how many vaccines they do.

Why would this surprise anyone? They get money from drug companies for the prescriptions they write. There’s always money involved.

We are all to forget this and simply assume total confidence that the doctor is always doing what is best for our self-interest. That’s a real passive way to approach your own health and there’s enough anecdotal and recorded incidents (iatrogenic deaths and injuries statistics) to say the passive approach to your own health will get you dead a lot faster than being actively involved and YOU being the one in charge of your own health.

“doctors do make money”

Yes they do, and so do advisory panel members at FDA who stamp products safe and effective, and the research academics who submit test results to FDA to get them approved.

“Third, a federally funded study of 2914 academics
http://content.healthaffairs.org/content/28/6/1814.abstract

by Harvard University’s Eric Campbell finds that almost 50 percent of research academics have no ties to industry. That’s right, ZERO financial conflicts. Dr. Campbell published his data in the journal Health Affairs and discussed it last June at a Georgetown University conference.”

Ergo, LESS than HALF of the researchers here Weren’t on the take.
