Trust in vaccines is collapsing, fuelled by political failures, corporate greed, and scientific conflicts of interest. If we don’t act now, preventable diseases will continue their deadly comeback.
Very true, trust needs to be regained - meaning there's a heck of lot of work to be done in that department - worldwide. By the way they both behave governments and pharma companies do not do themselves any favours there.
On that note perhaps look at fellow substack science writer Maryanne Demasi, PhD - an investigative journalist writing for online media and medical journals. Maryanne is a former medical scientist who completed her PhD in Medicine at the University of Adelaide. Her research focused on the pathology of Rheumatoid arthritis and potential therapies.
She moved to medical journalism and was a TV presenter for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) for over a decade until in 2013 when she investigated, researched and produced 2 episodes of the science show 'Catalyst' entitled, "Heart of the Matter: The Cholesterol & Statin Myth". This profiled and called into question the benefits of statins. After complaints from the pharmaceutical industry she and others were quickly fired and the episode subsequently taken down, in fact it was expunged from the internet at the time.
Her work now mainly focuses on looking into shoddy science, the stacked and manipulated peer review system alongside Australian and overseas government department stonewalling.
While recognizing the value and positive effects of many vaccines some of her current work also looks into the real dangers of more modern vaccines (a topic mostly taboo), such as how DNA contamination in mRNA vaccines is a potential time bomb.
Some of what she finds is promising but most is depressing I have to say. Due to my own severe heart and vascular issues I conducted my own research over many years, looking into the issues via the literature from medical trials published in official, peer reviewed scientific papers and journal publications (alongside talking to my contacts within the medical and scientific fields), leaves me to much the same conclusions as Maryanne.
Maryanne and countless others, myself included want truth, transparency and accountability in the industry. Only this and this alone will help to rebuild trust, acceptance and compliance with all drugs and especially vaccines, current and future. However I do not think for one minute that the government or industry want that in any shape or form. Always follow the money.
Thank you, Henri, for taking the time and trouble to write this comment. There is a lot of work on all sides to rebuild trust. The job is made even more difficult by lax publishers and editors who allow poorly conducted research to appear in their journals. The seminal article in this field was published by John Ionnades 20 years ago. It is called "Why Most Published Research Findings Are False". He's not referring to fake results, a whole other problem, but to weak studies that are impossible to replicate. Why are these appearing in print? Well, you already know the answer--follow the money!
Thank you for accepting my request. I read what you wrote regarding the scientific literature and journals you have read and I appreciate your candid response in that we need more transparency and clarity in research by the scientific community, peer review and government agencies regarding clear, concise information about medicine and their effectiveness without fear of big pharmaceutical companies and others trying to silence scientists in their first amendment rights. - Joseph DeSanto Jr.
Have you considered fruitination? To be fruitinated all that needs to happen is you see a fruit avatar. It has a powerful psychological effect making people feel safe and secure in a healthy paradigm. You can help fruitinate people by adding fruit to your avatars and asking your subscribers to help boost each other.
