Big Pharma Has Had a Net Negative Impact on Society in Recent Decades

“First and foremost, medical regulators shouldn’t be taking money from industry. Drug companies … over the last few decades, overall, have had a negative impact on society, because of the way that they exaggerate the safety and benefits of their pharmacological products,” argues cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra.

We discuss issues in the drug regulatory process, why many new drugs are simply duplicates of old ones or more harmful than beneficial, and growing evidence surrounding the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines and the harms they cause.

“In my whole career, analyzing and looking at all sorts of different drugs over 20 years, I’ve never seen something with such poor effectiveness [and] such significant, unprecedented harms that we have rolled out to the population. It is extraordinary. And to add more insult to injury, this is now one of the most lucrative products in the history of medicine,” Dr. Malhotra says.

We discuss extensive COVID-19 vaccine data released by the UK government comparing outcomes for vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals, and Malhotra’s concerns of accelerated coronary artery disease among vaccinated persons.

What has been the cost of speaking out for Malhotra? And what is his strategy for getting these products withdrawn?
