Johns Hopkins University Professor Names the 'Greatest Perpetrator of Misinformation' During Pandemic
Townhall ^ | 03/02/2023 | Leah Barkoukis

Johns Hopkins University professor Dr. Marty Makary blasted the federal government during the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic’s first hearing on Tuesday, accusing it of being “the greatest perpetrator of misinformation.”

In a powerful opening statement, Makary rattled off multiple examples to support his claim.

Misinformation that Covid was spread through surface transmission; that vaccinated immunity was far greater than natural immunity; That masks were effective.

Now we have the definitive Cochrane review. What do you do with that review? Cochrane is the most authoritative evidence body in all of medicine and has been for decades. Do you just ignore it and not talk about it?
 
That myocarditis was more common after the infection than [after] the vaccine. Not true, it is 4-28 times more common after the vaccine.
 
That young people benefit from a booster, misinformation. Our two top experts on vaccines quit the FDA in protest over this particular issue, pushing boosters in young, healthy people. The data was never there. That's why the CDC never disclosed hospitalization rates among boosted Americans under age 50.
 
That vaccine mandates would increase vaccination rates. The George Mason University study shows that it didn't. It did one thing, it created "Never-Vaxxers" who are now not getting the childhood vaccines they need to get.
 
Over and over again, we've seen something that goes far beyond using your best judgment with the information at hand. We've seen something that is unforgivable, and that is the weaponization of medical research itself. The CDC putting out their own shoddy studies, like their own study on natural immunity looking at one state for two months, when they had data for years on all 50 states. Why did they only report that one sliver of data? Why did the salami slice the giant database? Because it gave them the result they wanted.
 
The same with the masking studies. The data has now caught up in giant systematic reviews, and public health officials were intellectually dishonest. They lied to the American people.

Ok covidiot vaxxers, let’s here again how this is all debunked, he is a crackpot, this is not real science?

Once again, an actual credentialed expert with some of the best studies from the highest standards in the industry show all the covid lies for what they are.

Why? My guess is follow the money. How many pushing the never ending vaccines, for which the government was shoveling billions of our tax dollars to the pharmaceuticals, are now multimillionaires? Inquiring minds would like to know.

And, then what?

For those of us that were not fooled, or even not fooled for long, yes there is some validation for being correct in our assessments. Now what?

This does not turn back the clock. There is no mulligan oops. The stupid self righteous Karens among us are still stupid self righteous Karens. And are still wearing masks and getting dangerous booster injections.

This is a big deal. The Cochran Report is well-respected and usually has the last word on data interpretation.

"The vaccine is one of the greatest achievements of mankind," Donald Trump.

"I came up with a vaccine, with three vaccines all are very, very good," Trump said in an interview, referring to the Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson shots.

Never forgive, never forget.

To be fair to Trump, what would you do in 2020 when the pandemic was raging worldwide?

Would you push Operation Warp Speed?

BTW, I ended up on Vinay Prasad’s YT channel. Watch his take-down of masks.

When these creeps were planning their psyop they discussed shutting down dissent in 2019.

One million plus is still a lot. I took care of some dying COVID patients. It was pretty ugly.

To be clear: I defending mask use in 2021, back when I was under the delusion that ‘medical experts’, wrong as they often are, at least have the public’s welfare in mind.

At the inception of Operation Warp Speed there were two unassailable facts:

1-In the history of mankind, there has never been an effective vaccine against any coronavirus.

2-There has never been a safe and successful mRNA vaccine.

It was pure arrogance, hubris, and stupidity on the part of Trump to believe that during Operation Warp Speed, these two seemingly insurmountable obstacles would be overcome…in record time…by several different pharmaceutical companies.

We should all think back to Rahm Emmanuel saying that Osama Obama would never let a crisis go to waste. I'd bet the clothes on my back that Rat Party Headquarters planned,from the *very* start,to bring this country's economy...and social structure...to its knees to get rid of Orange Man Bad.

Sadist consideration about the CDC and FDA is the lives lost because they impaired the use of Ivermectin; they could have saved millions of lives by encouraging its use.
