The "systemic corruption" in Big-Pharma Business
Growing mistrust vis-à-vis the official discourse on health is sustained by the arrogance of the WHO, of governments and also by the "systemic corruption” increasingly obvious in pharmaceutical companies.
This reality, recognized by many scientists and often by the political authorities themselves, such as the United Nations rapporteur, the European Commission, the ethics study centers of Harvard and Oxford.
The denunciation of general corruption in the medical business has been the subject of much literature for the past 20 years already:
- Dr. Arnold Relman, director of the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) said in 2002:
“The medical profession is bought up by the pharmaceutical industry, not only in terms of the practice of medicine, but also in terms of teaching and research. The academic institutions of this country allow themselves to be the paid agents of the pharmaceutical industry. It is shameful."
- Dr Marcia Angeli, who succeeded him at the NEJM, confirmed in 2009:
“It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, nor to rely on the judgment of trusted doctors or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I have come to admit slowly and reluctantly over the course of my two decades as an editor. "
- Dr Richard Smith editor of the British Medical Journal (BMJ) wrote in 2013:
“The results of most scientific studies are incorrect, and they are so simply because scientists are more interested in funding and their careers than the truth."
- Dr Richard Horton, director of The Lancet was also indignant in an editorial in 2015:
“Science has taken a turn towards oblivion… The ostensible inaccuracy and the poor conduct regarding medical research is alarming."
- Dr Kamran Abassi, editor-in-chief of BMJ recently explained:
“Science is currently being stifled for political and financial reasons. Covid-19 has unleashed widespread state corruption and it is harmful to public health… When honesty in scientific truth is suppressed, people die. "
In 2005, the House of Commons of the United Kingdom had already issued a frank "verdict" in a famous report, unfortunately still relevant 15 years later:
"The pharmaceutical industry is systematically betraying its responsibility to persons and institutions ... It has infiltrated the whole system, at all levels ... It is now out of control."
The Harvard Ethics Center also makes a forthright comment about all of this:
“Over the past 35 years, the pharmaceutical industry has corrupted the practice of medicine through its influence on the development of drugs, the way they are tested and the creation of medical knowledge. "
The book "Deadly Cures and Organized Crime: How the Pharmaceutical Industry Corrupted Health Services", written by Prof. Peter Goetzsche, received the 2014 British Medical Association Award.
It is promoted by Richard Smith, former editor-in-chief of the BMJ:
“Some people might be put off by Peter's insistence on comparing the pharmaceutical industry to the Mafia, but those who turn away from the book will miss an important opportunity to understand something significant about the world at present… It is indeed frightening to see how many similarities there are between this (Big-Pharma) industry and the mafia: the mafia earns obscene sums of money, just like this industry; the side effects of organized crime are murders and deaths, and the side effects are the same in this industry; the mafia corrupts politicians and others, as does the drug industry… Peter describes the top ten cases in detail, but there are many more. "
Hardly a month goes by without a new survey or a new book that sheds light on the drug industry's shenanigans, cronyism and other tricks and collusion with policymakers.
Three documentaries produced by ARTE are a good introduction to this serious problem:
"The drug-liars", "Disease for sale", "Big Pharma - the almighty labs".
But there are, in fact, hundreds of books and articles on the subject!
All this is therefore clearly known and all the more scandalous. At a time when they want to impose the health pass on us, Pfizer and Moderna are talking about a 3rd dose and are announcing an expected increase in their record profits, while also deciding to increase their prices!
How can we trust these people?
