More on Big Pharma’s decline into crime

We finished off the last post with Pfizer paying $116 billion for Warner Lambert to get its hands on Lipitor, one of the world’s biggest seeking blockbuster drugs. This was because the patent was due to expire in 2011 and they had no drug of their own. Read more here:

The SARS-CoV-2 injections scam has its roots in the 1980s. The Big Pharma companies handed over their supply chain assets, and the people working them, to third party companies.

Read full story

Pfizer did that because like all the other big pharma companies, their own pipelines had dried up. This was because they sold off all their supply chain assets in the 1980s. Imagine if Ford, Peugeot, BMW etc divested all their design and production capability to let third party companies do it for them. That’s exactly what happened in pharma.

It sparked a massive merger and acquisition extravaganza where the bigger fish ate the smaller fish. That didn’t solve the problem of the patent cliff, of course, but it gave them some breathing space from investor’s banging on CEOs doors.

Then, in 1998, a biologic drug known as a monoclonal antibody (mAb) was approved by US FDA. It was developed and marketed by a company named Genentech, and the drug was called Herceptin, a treatment for breast cancer. It was the first biologic blockbuster drug.

Bombshell Court Order: FDA Admits Graphene Oxide Found in Pfizer mRNA Vaccines – Confidential Docs Exposed!

The Covid-19 vaccines have been at the centre of a heated debate since their introduction, with many questions and concerns raised about their safety and effectiveness.

Speculation has also been rife that the Covid-19 injections may contain traces of Graphene Oxide, a highly toxic and conductive substance.

Medicine regulators, with the support of the Mainstream Media, have repeatedly denied these claims.

But they were lying to you.

Because recent evidence has emerged that confirms the presence of Graphene Oxide, a highly toxic and conductive substance, in the Pfizer vaccine. And it has come from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) which has been forced to publish the confidential Pfizer documents by order of the Federal Court in the USA.

The Great Ozempic Hustle

Most of the food in America comes from just a few crops like corn, wheat, soy, and canola, largely due to farming subsidies that force farmers to mass-produce these crops and sell them below cost. These cheap crops are then turned into the processed foods we eat every day. This is problematic because:

Health Issues: These foods are unhealthy and contribute to major health problems like diabetes and obesity.

Natural Aversion: Our bodies naturally resist these foods, making them hard to sell.

Addictive Additives: To make them more appealing, addictive substances are added. In the 1980s, Big Tobacco bought the processed food industry and, much like they did with cigarettes, focused on making these foods as addictive as possible.

Chronic Illness: The resulting health issues create lifelong customers for industries like Big Pharma.

For years, activists like Dr. Mercola have pushed for awareness of the importance of natural foods and the need to change farming subsidies to promote healthy eating. The current media climate, driven by skepticism of the COVID-19 response and the rise of independent media, has revealed the systematic failures in our food supply and allowed these long-cultivated ideas to begin bursting into public awareness.

For example, a few weeks ago, shortly after gaining the national spotlight and the need to make America Healthy Again by freeing us from pervasive regulatory corruption, RFK Jr. was invited onto Fox News to discuss the dangers of seed oils and artificial food colorings with a supportive newscaster—something I’d never before seen in the national media.

Walgreens Agrees to Pay $107 Million to Settle Allegations of Falsely Billing Medicare, Medicaid

Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc., one of the nation’s largest retail pharmacy chains, has agreed to pay $106.8 million to settle allegations of submitting false claims to federal health care programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said in a press release.

The allegations involve claims for prescriptions that were processed but never dispensed, spanning a period from 2009 to 2020. This settlement resolution falls under the False Claims Act, a tool for addressing fraud involving taxpayer-funded health care programs.

The DOJ alleged that Walgreens billed federal health care programs for prescriptions that beneficiaries never picked up, allowing the company to receive millions of dollars in payments for medications that were never provided.

Walgreens, which is based in Deerfield, Illinois, did not admit liability in agreeing to settle.

“Due to a software error, we inadvertently billed some government health care programs for a relatively small number of prescriptions our patients submitted but never picked up,” the company said in an emailed statement to The Epoch Times.

“We corrected the error, reported the issue to the government, and voluntarily refunded all overpayments. We appreciate the government acknowledged our compliance efforts as part of resolving this matter.”

The Escape from Managerialist Medicine

Whether the influence of Big Pharma that profits from sickness, compromised public health agencies controlled by the very industries they are supposed to regulate, a biosecurity state that tends to jump from one declared health emergency to the next, medicine is now in danger of causing more sickness than it heals.

The year I was born, 1976, saw the publication of Ivan Illich’s prophetic book, Medical Nemesis, which opens with the startling claim, “The medical establishment has become a major threat to health.”[i] The book explores the epidemic of iatrogenic disease—that is, illnesses caused by medical interventions—which has only worsened in the nearly half-century since this book was published. Most of the current research literature on iatrogenesis focuses on the problem of medical errors, and how to institute systems that can minimize errors. This is obviously important to address, but medical errors are only part of the story of how medicine is harming us.

Illich’s basic thesis was that some systems, including our healthcare system, improve outcomes only until they expand to a certain industrialized size, monopolized scope, and level of technological power. Once this threshold is reached, without intending to do so, these systems paradoxically cannot help but inflict harm and undermine their stated aims. Illich diagnosed “the disease of medical progress” in its early stages; I believe this disease has now reached its advanced stage.

The problem is political and not merely professional: he argued that “the layman and not the physician has the potential perspective and effective power to stop the current iatrogenic epidemic.”[ii] Indeed, “among all our contemporary experts, physicians are those trained to the highest level of specialized incompetence for this urgently needed pursuit.”

Organized medicine has always carefully guarded its membership and monopoly on professional privileges, from ordering tests to prescribing medications. “The medical monopoly over health care has expanded without checks and has encroached on our liberty with regard to our own bodies.”[iii] In my previous book, The New Abnormal: The Rise of the Biomedical Security State, I explore how this tendency manifested during our disastrous response to Covid. But the problem is not limited to that period of recent medical history, and the disastrous public health response was only a symptom of more widespread problems in our healthcare system.

Pharma, Big Ag Lobbyists Help U.S. Scuttle Global Plan to Cut Antibiotic Use in Industrial Meat Production

Targets to cut the use of antimicrobials in animal agriculture were dropped from a key United Nations (U.N.) political declaration following pushback from the agriculture and veterinary drug industry and meat-producing nations comprising the U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

The declaration is meant to commit countries to address surging resistance to antimicrobial medicines — a problem that kills nearly 1.3 million people globally in a single year, topping deaths from HIV and malaria combined.

On Sept. 26, global leaders will meet at the U.N. where they are expected to adopt the declaration. But without concrete targets, scientists, global leaders and politicians are concerned that governments won’t effectively address the problem.

In particular, they will fail to curb the use of antimicrobials in farm animals, which is spurring the development of resistance to critical medicines, they warn.

Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), who is campaigning for improved control of antibiotics in food-producing animals in the U.S., said in a statement, “The massive overuse of antibiotics on factory farms in the United States is a serious threat to public health.”

“Federal agencies have a troubling history of deferring to corporate interests on this issue, and I am very concerned about any role that the United States played in weakening international commitments to reduce antibiotic use in farm animals,” he adds.

‘We Get Paid to Vaccinate Your Children’: Pediatrician Reveals Details of Big Pharma Payola Scheme

Can pediatricians afford to run their medical practices without the generous kickbacks they receive for vaccinating every child?

Dr. Paul Thomas, a Dartmouth-trained pediatrician, discussed this dilemma during an April 16 interview with Polly Tommey on Children’s Health Defense’s “Vax-Unvax: The People’s Study” bus tour.

“You cannot stay in business if you’re not giving pretty close to the CDC [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] [childhood vaccine] schedule,” said Thomas, who ran a general pediatrics practice with 15,000 patients and 33 staff members.

Thomas also addressed the risks and harms of vaccines — including COVID-19 mRNA vaccines — and the importance of boosting our immune systems naturally.

‘We were losing … over a million dollars’

Thomas, author of “The Vaccine-Friendly Plan: Dr. Paul’s Safe and Effective Approach to Immunity and Health-from Pregnancy Through Your Child’s Teen Year,” gave parents in his practice a choice: vaccinate their children on the CDC schedule, vaccinate more slowly by waiting for the child’s immune system to develop or not vaccinate at all.

As more patients refused vaccines, Thomas began to notice the financial impact on his practice.

He and his staff conducted a thorough analysis of their billing records, examining the income generated from vaccine administration fees, markups and quality bonuses tied to vaccination rates.

7 Cover Stories Big Pharma Forced on MSM to Hide Disastrous Health Consequences of mRNA Clot Shots

If you are wondering why mainstream media is finally publishing some science-based facts about the health detriment caused by commonly used products, that is because MSM is engaged in multi-faceted cover stories while they continue to pretend the Covid-19 mRNA jabs aren’t so bad. Remember, Covid-19 did not kill any more folks than the seasonal flu ever did, it’s just that hospitals across the globe reported anyone and everyone that died during the plandemic as “died with Covid.” This was for the money.

Plus, it was all about co-morbidity “factors,” meaning people with cancer, dementia, diabetes, heart disease and who had heart attacks and strokes were all chalked up to have died from Fauci Flu, while millions of those same folks died from the Covid clot shots.

Though the mad vaccination rush for Covid-19 is fizzling out some, billions of vaxxed people around the globe are suffering and dying from Spike Protein Syndrome, where the billions (trillions with boosters) of spike prion nanoparticles clog and clot their vascular system, causing nearly every system to malfunction, collapse and quit working, including the heart, liver, kidneys, pancreas and ovaries.

So now, as real news of the Clot Shot Pandemic spreads to the naïve naysayers and pro-vax zealots and their loved ones, mainstream media must run cover to protect the vaccine industrial complex, the “holy grail” of medicine and for the next plandemic where Big Pharma and Big Government will certainly push just as hard, if not harder, for every human to commit suicide via vaccination.

They lied: Canadian government contract with Pfizer states that the long-term efficacy and safety of covid injections was unknown

The Pfizer covid-19 vaccine contract between the Canadian government obtained by The Canadian Independent shows the “long-term effects, efficacy, and adverse effects” of the vaccine were not known at the time the contract was signed and the population was mass vaccinated.

This is the original covid-19 vaccine contract between the Canadian government and Pfizer, dated 26 October 2020. It was obtained exclusively by The Canadian Independent through an access to information request.

Two months later, after the contract was signed, Canada began the process of mass vaccinating its citizens while politicians, public health officials, the CEO of Pfizer, and the mainstream media preached about the Pfizer covid-19 vaccine being “safe and effective.”

What the population was not aware of was what was in the contract. Section 5.5 of the contract, under “Purchaser Acknowledgement,” clearly states: “Purchaser further acknowledges that the long-term effects and efficacy of the Vaccine are not currently known and that there may be adverse effects of the Vaccine that are not currently known.”

People Who Take Ozempic, Wegovy 45% More Likely to Have Suicidal Thoughts

People who take the popular weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy are 45% more likely to have suicidal thoughts than people taking other drugs, according to a study published Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).

Researchers from the Zucker School of Medicine in New York reviewed a World Health Organization global database of adverse drug effects between November 2000 and August 2023.

They compared reporting rates for semaglutide — the active ingredient in the blockbuster drugs — to other similar weight-loss drugs and all drugs in the database. They found that semaglutide was associated with “disproportionately increased reporting of suicidality.”

“Authorities should consider issuing a warning to inform about this risk,” the authors concluded, particularly given the increasing off-label use of the drug. They said in half of the cases where suicidal thoughts occurred, the drug was being taken off-label.

The signal “warrants urgent clarification,” they added.

The researchers also found a higher risk for suicidal thoughts among people on antidepressants or benzodiazepines, likely prescribed for depression or anxiety, who were also taking semaglutide.

They recommended that physicians who prescribe semaglutide inform patients of the risk and assess their psychiatric history and mental state before prescribing the drug.
