STUDY 329:
In 2001, @JAACAP published a paper declaring that the antidepressant paroxetine (Paxil) was “generally well tolerated and effective” for adolescent depression.
That conclusion was false. @GSK knew from its own data that the drug failed to outperform placebo and carried a serious risk of suicidal behaviour.
Instead of telling the truth, @GSK hired a public-relations firm to ghostwrite the paper, enlisted academic co-authors who never saw the raw data, and used the publication to promote Paxil to doctors treating children.
The record shows that @Merck and the regulator had access to the data—but nothing changed.

🩺Are we over-medicalising menopause?
At @US_FDA recent roundtable, menopause was reframed as a disease of “oestrogen deficiency”—and hormone therapy as the cure. But was this science or salesmanship? LINK below 👇👇

Why are the leaked documents on the "plot" to take down RFK Jr so important? Because they reveal the machinery at work behind the narratives of "breaktrough", "innovation" and other "game changers" in health and medicine. https://brownstone.org/articles/the-plot-to-get-rfk/ 1/
It's hard to focus on Israel's airstrikes in Lebanon due to Israel's invasion of Syria, which is hard to focus on due to Israel's atrocities in the West Bank, which are hard to focus on due to Israel's genocide in Gaza, which is hard to focus on due to Israel's war on Iran.

🚨BREAKING: A spike in foetal loss after Covid-19 vaccination in early pregnancy
Women who received an mRNA vaccine between 8 and 13 weeks gestation experienced a significantly higher rate of foetal loss—around 13 losses per 100 pregnancies—compared to an expected rate of just 9.

Israel spends 19 months deliberately targeting and destroying every hospital in Gaza with precision weapons, justifying it by claiming Hamas guys were nearby.
Now, Iran lobs missiles at an IDF base deliberately built near a hospital, and Israel demands unique victim status:👇

1) After @SecKennedy removes physicians for financial conflicts of interest from CDC vaccine panel, NY Times Apoorva Mandavilli quotes American Academy of Paediatrics (APA) critic.
Irony moment! 🤡
Guess who funds APA: Moderna, Merck, GSK, Sanofi, Genentech.... (see next post)
Oggi #31maggio a Torino si presenta “Critica della ragione pandemica”, cui ho avuto l’onore di contribuire.
La fotografia di una gestione che ha abolito raziocinio e giustizia, snaturato la scienza, segnato i rapporti umani e introdotto un metodo di controllo delle popolazioni.
The European Union has banned three journalists — two Germans, Alina Lipp and Thomas Röper, and a Turkish national living in Germany, Hüseyin Doğru — from entering the EU, and frozen their bank accounts. The EU accuses them of “spreading pro-Russian propaganda”, “undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine”, and “destabilising” EU countries through their reporting.
In fact, they are being punished solely for engaging in critical reporting about Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Gaza.
The fact that challenging the EU-NATO narrative on the war in Ukraine or on the genocide in Gaza is now effectively treated as a quasi-criminal, de facto act of treason justifying extra-judicial punishment in the form of travel bans and asset freezes is nothing short of terrifying.
The ethical and legal implications are staggering: two EU citizens have effectively been stripped of their basic civil liberties — exiled from virtually the entire European continent and subjected to financial strangulation — through a simple act of bureaucratic fiat, without trial or court ruling. This is punishment without process, imposed by an unaccountable, out-of-control elite, in defiance of the most basic principles of the rule of law.
Making the ruling even more chilling is the fact that the decision is legally binding on all member states. That means that anyone who provides funds or resources to the accused journalists would also be in violation of the sanctions and could themselves be sanctioned as a result.
With the snap of a finger, EU officials have swept aside centuries of legal development. Core principles such as the separation of powers (whereby punishment should be the exclusive domain of independent courts), proportionality and the foundational concept of nulla poena sine lege — no punishment without law — have effectively been discarded.
In effect, EU elites have discovered a way to bypass all legal and constitutional safeguards against the repression of dissent, by weaponising a mechanism originally designed to target foreign entities, not domestic citizens.
The geographic scope of the ruling is also entirely without precedent: while in the past there have been isolated cases of individual states denying re-entry to their own nationals for political reasons, typically by revoking their citizenship, a practice broadly condemned under international law, there is no historical precedent for a supranational body imposing a travel ban on a citizen of a member state across almost thirty countries simultaneously.
This exposes the dangerous flipside of the EU’s supranational legal framework: rights that apply uniformly across all member states can just as easily be revoked across the entire bloc through mere bureaucratic fiat.
In the past, individuals facing political persecution in one European country could seek refuge or political asylum in another. That is no longer possible, especially when the persecution is orchestrated by the supranational and international authorities of the Union itself.
All Europeans who believe in democracy and the rule of law — whether on the left, the right or anywhere in between — must push back against this monstrosity, regardless of what they think of Röper, Lipp, or Doğru’s views. If we don’t stand up for them now, any one of us could be next.

Concentration camp 2025
Starving people forced to walk miles
under scorching heat.
Lined up like animals,
only a few are fed.
Some are arrested,
Some are shot at.
New Israel US joint venture.
The worst humanity is capable of from the bastions of Power.
We.
Must.
Stop.
This.
Day after day, for 19 months and with no end in sight:
Entire families extinguished, small children blown to bits by the thousands, this one from an air strike on the home of two married physicians who work at one of Gaza's last functional hospitals: all paid for by the US.
This is a story about institutional culture, regulatory failure, and the consequences of silence.
Those who spoke up were punished. Those who stayed silent kept their jobs & reputations. And those who were forced to comply were often left to deal with the collateral damage. SEE FULL STORY 👇👇

For years, Ulrike Guérot was one of Germany’s most respected political scientists. But after she criticised the pandemic response and the proxy war in Ukraine, she was subjected to a Stasi-like campaign of persecution.
I wrote about her incredible story:

Two of the best in the evidence-based medicine community, @VPrasadMDMPH and @NIHDirector_Jay, are now in charge of things that do matter. That's wonderful news. Wishing them success. We should all celebrate now, and be thrilled for what they'll be hopefully able to achieve🤞
