One of the saddest things for me, personally, has been my almost complete erosion of trust in various institutions over the last couple of years. It would be a fair criticism to say I’ve been largely encapsulated in a bubble of misplaced innocence and naivety for too long. But the astonishing chasm between government, media and health messaging and the data has been too stark, too perplexing, to ignore. Perhaps saddest of all has been my erosion of trust in the medical profession overall.
Today I want to examine an open letter of rebuttal to three of the
famous (or infamous, depending on your point of view) figures at the
centre of things - Dr’s Malone, Kory and McCullough (I will abbreviate
this group as MKM). The letter is written by Dr Hooman Noorchashm and
can be read in full here.
The doctor used an off-label drug - so, by his own logic here, the doctor HAS harmed or killed people because he did so without proper clinical trials having been performed.
The doctor says that a large-scale promotion, or marketing, of these early-treatment protocols supported by MKM are not justified "Without reasonable evidence and real medical consensus".
The doctor then presents a chart from the CDC purporting to show that the vaccines reduce one's hazard from getting serious illness from covid by up to a factor of nearly 17 at the peak.
What the doctor fails to mention, despite his claim that he has "Carefully listened" to hours of the presentations from MKM, is that MKM have, until very recently as more data has emerged, been recommending that those in vulnerable categories be vaccinated.
MKM clearly do not rely on the "Trust me, I'm a doctor" approach.
The doctor admits that the vaccines have not been universally safe.
If the doctor is so worried that MKM are wrong, are persuading millions of people with their arguments, then he utterly fails in his duty to counter those arguments and persuade those millions of people otherwise.
