Given how powerful groups - government, industry - are so intertwined with this debacle, it is a miracle of human events that we are getting an honest perspective out so soon

11:40 "They purchased billions of it [Paxlovid] without even knowing the results of the study. That's only something idiots would do." Rather than giving them a pass as idiots, I'd suggest looking at conflicts of interest and profits.
It is a cover for all of the greed and venality to dismiss 'them' as idiots. I do believe this man can think well enough to figure that out. So what is his game, besides walking a lucrative tightrope between our abused trust and a future windfall?
My eldest sister is a so-called "highly educated medical profesional". She has worked for years as a sort of go-between with Big Pharm and government agencies such as the FDA, essentially reviewing medical trials on new drugs and getting FDA approval (or, presumably, advising against approval). She has done rather well for herself in this career, owning two million dollar homes - one for the warm months in a wealthy suburb north of Chicago, the other in Arizona where she hides during winter. And no one i know (and I do mean NO ONE) fell harder for every single sliver of the official narrative. Whether this arose from sincere belief in that narrative, or just plain parroting of the BS, I simply cannot know. But what I do know is that there is no longer any excuse for a "highly educated medical profesional" to still be defending the official narrative from 4 years ago.... yet that is exactly what my sister is doing! Why is COVID still running wild? It's because people like me didn't get the jab! According to her, it is a "civic duty". A little over a year ago, she wrote the following in a group text conversation... "Just walked through the airport in Chicago. It is so disappointing to see only about 1 in 20 wearing masks!" My eyes rolled so hard they very nearly popped out of my skull. Just the other day in another group text message between Her, myself and four other siblings (four other siblings who took her advice, got the jabs and are now regretting that decision) she was urging everyone to stay up-to-date on their vaccinations. I ask a series of very simple questions concerning the jabs... questions a so-called "highly educated medical professional" ought to be able to shed some light on..... things like.... - Why did Pfizer ask a federal court to allow them 65 years before releasing all the raw data from the clinical trial? - How is it possible to judge the long-term risk vs benefit profile for a new intervention if the clinical trial participants are unblinded after two short months? - Given that healthy children are at essentially zero risk from a COVID infection, why has the FDA approved and encourage their use in children as young as 6 months old? And she answered not a single one in a direct way. Instead her answer sounded like it could have been penned by Pfizer's legal department. It has been a strange experience over the last 4 years. No one's intellect and integrity did I hold in higher respect and regard than my eldest sister, and now there is no one I hold in such outright disappointment and disregard. And she knows it, and acts as though the problem is with me and my lack of understanding.
Wow! Your cursing and scoffing at the policies/people/institutions many of have been cursing and scoffing at for 4 years give me great joy. Welcome! I had faith in you all along.
When the first trials of MRNA vaccines were done, the drug companies said they weren't checking to see if it prevented transmission. Given this, there was never any reason to believe that it would and thus never any justification for mandates.
I don't think Pfizer actually admitted that until 2022. Many people, including politicians, believed that the jab stopped the spread. There were people saying that if everyone took the jab, the virus would disappear.
You are absolutely correct. They intentionally designed the trials to omit testing for transmission because they knew ahead of time that the vaccines would fail in that regard. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9941884/ "Immunity from neutralizing antibodies generated by existing vaccines is relatively short-lived and does not confer sterilizing immunity, which allows for ongoing transmission. Furthermore, SARS-CoV-2 has continued to circulate and evolve, resulting in SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern that can evade immune protection from infection or vaccination."
@@johnnemeth6913 no justification for mandates no matter what obribthem said until office then of course mandates! My body my choice lol yeah right fn evil lying bit$$ches
@@laveraparato258 That’s a wild take. I hope u consider the public’s treatment of healthcare workers is one of the reasons no one wants to work in the hospitals anymore. It’s also really irrational to blame this stranger on the internet for anything to do with covid deaths..
The truth is if we had treated covid like any other respiratory illness many probably would be alive. Intubation is a last resort, not a first especially in the elderly. Stack those respiratory treatments bipap, cpap. This is coming from a nurse who worked in the ER. We could have done some of the treatments outside. It was a time to be brave and think outside the box.
@@laveraparato258Yea, the kids who committed suicide and the people who refused to think for themselves and say no to the jab - but these individuals are not responsible. The government and Universities with hospitals and research centers such as OSU are! Gov Dewine didn't think or listen to anyone outside of the democrat regime - and he is supposed to be a Republican!
@@user-xv1kp6qf7hhe means that Dr's should have just treated it normally and not be afraid to do so. My doctor did so, and I survived on zpac and prednisone. But only when he was done with his hands being tied. And I'm grateful for that. Doctors should NOT let government dictate treatment. Especially when it works. The only thing it did was sweeten the pot with money. And that kept many mouths shut or lose license, like some did early on. They were called quacks and discredited. I saw articles on the very Doctor that tried to do so early on. And every single one was blacklisted and slandered. So instead of standing up as one entire group, the rest went along with it. They cowered and took the incentives to make protocols that killed instead. So they could pass more government laws and scare people into submission. Some of them enjoyed that power. What a mess. It's their own fault. Not ours. They deserve it. And if I see someone with covid protocols, I know who not to trust.
I was shocked at what they fenced off, for regular urban parents/children. I am lucky I go out of town to family. 1000's of city people travelled out of town to enjoy the outdoors, in places the city could not touch and lock up. Same in a provincial park, again 1000's of people where you seldom see people. The people did not believe the government about their lockdowns and side stepped them.
Well, when you and your friends do nothing about it then less moral humans will do whatever they want to do. The shoulders that bear that responsibility are yours
@@nancybaumgartner6774 I don't know if that has been proved, but there has never been the data they claim there has. No baby needs Hep B, and definitely not 3 frikken C 19 shots by 9 months. I didn't have any of them except, I think I may have had MMR at 5 or 6, until I took tetanus at 17 or 18 to travel to Europe. No C 19 vaxxes, and never got C 19 that I know of.
Kids immune systems are ruined, so many allergic to everything, csnt have parties with nuts, etc anymore. Too dangerous. 1 in 33 have autism. Childhood obesity at all time highs. 60 percent of people in usa are chronically ill. And we are currently living through Un a living of many people. 😢
true. But he also believes in the existence of a new disease. And in his hospitals around him they enforce masks! Like putting up wire-mesh fences around people.
Dr. Prasad was all for the shots when they came out. But to his credit, he has now analyzed the shots and their inherent major problems especially for young people. Thus, I give him an enormous amount of respect, he will adjust his position based on facts. Sadly, we need many more Dr. Prasad's in the world instead of those who are trying to still justify their faulty and harmful positions.
That is exactly what happened. The AAP ( American Academy of Pediatrics), in summer of 2020 was recommending that kids return to school in the fall- but after push back from the teachers'union- they reversed their recommendation.
The snarky “There’s a better role for you…in public health” at the end had me dying! Thank you Dr. Prasad for being a continued voice of science, logic, and reason through these troubling times.
“There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And, often, there are unintended consequences - people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.” - Dr. Anthony Fauci
Masks may not be perfect, but they do reduce the viral load you're exposed to, same as the N95's reduce the sawdust & volatile substance droplets you might be exposed to spraying pesticides. True that fiddling with the mask doesn't help, & people needed to learn that, but still something is better than nothing imo. I think Fauci made that statement during the mad mask rush & masks were scarce, & tptb wanted to conserve them for healthcare. Masks are much less invasive than the fast-tracked alternative.
I was rehired as a paramedic in Toronto, and got suspended for not wearing a mask and asking for what science the policy was based on. My union rep told me "If management has a policy stating you have to wear a helicopter beanie hat, you have to wear it". The service fired me for some BS reason cause I pointed out too many errors and asked uncomfortable questions.
School closings--at least here in the US, you have to remember that the politically powerful teachers union was vehemently opposed to opening schools. Politics and ignorance triumphed over science.
There is no dissent allowed during a mass formation. After the fact, everyone realizes that the medieval witch hunts were insane, but during the witch hunts, the believers couldn't be convinced that witchcraft was nonsense. As for school closures, it wasn't about the kids, it was about the teachers' union.
It’s good to see the discussion occurring albeit very delayed. Vit D is an immune booster. While I agree it’s no use to start taking it once you’re sick, it should be part of health ensure optimal levels.
Yep, it is essential for regular immune function and for UK citizens it's common to be deficient in the Vital Mineral that is, big D. It takes around two weeks to be converted into active form in the body so, attempting to raise it during the period where apparent disease/ailments are being experienced is quite late. One option there for treatment of severe deficiency would be administering active form intravenously. Check with your local GP/Physician on medical advice and to test for sufficient levels of essential vitamins and minerals your body necessitates for regular function.
I came looking for this comment. Prevention worth more than a quick cure. Raise immunity before exposure. I work with the public and I don't even get the flu.
Lol. I love your videos. Straight to the point and you don't hold back. I was a health science university college teacher in Sydney Australia (nowhere near your level of knowledge or expertise) and during the COVID19 fiasco I kept shaking my head and saying their response was not right. None of my colleagues agreed and many of them had PhDs (I only have a Masters). Too many educated idiots in my opinion. It's a welcome relief to see not all high ranking academics lack common sense. I appreciate your work, and the information that you voice.
I agree with most of what you say Dr Prasad, but I was surprised to hear you refer to The Lancet as a reliable source…Have you seen the new documentary film, “First Do No Pharm”? Among other things, it covers the corporate capture of the most prestigious medical journals.
It's very charitable to say "he viewed...[the precautionary principle] differently". The precautionary principle is quite clear. It says that absent compelling evidence, interventions should be avoided, including interventions like school closures.
I’m an ICU nurse and I have appreciated your content over the past few years. I appreciated the content of the discussion at Stanford! So good! Finally having discussions!! I LOVED that you called out Dr. Peter Hotez during the discussion at Stanford! So good!
@juliesharp5077 Easy to say when it's 'just a job'... slightly different when you have a large number of relationships with very ill patients you're trying to save and prolong life. Say to force the CDC to change course, 50% of consultants, doctors, surgeons and nurses when on strike.... would those hundreds of thousands that die from vast shortages in care be acceptable collateral damage?
@@Andy_T79funny how it's stopping me from answering your last question. It is not irrelevant. Average age of death from COVID was 82 years. Most didn't need that vax even if it's safety wasn't in question.
Thank you Dr. Prasad. I appreciate your thoughts and common sense approach to public health. We all know what Dr. Jay Varma was caught bragging about during his role as the NYC health director. However, how many people have seen the video of Mandy Cohen, currently the director of the CDC, pretty much showing the same arrogance and lack of concern for the people she was tasked with overseeing for the lockdowns. Her strategy she reveals in a seminar at Duke U. was to phone a friend in MA. to see what they were going to do. Are you going to let them have professional football? Ha, ha then neither are we. This video is still on yt. If the people of the US don't have any respect for public health and the agency's and people tasked with those responsibilites, they only have themselves to blame. I will never, ever, trust any gov't agency again. This woman should be fired. With her lack of ethics she isn't qualified to be in charge of fish, in a fishbowl.
From NC and had to listen to Cohen's voice when I just wanted to check the weather. She was never licensed to practice medicine in our state. We knew she was heading on to "bigger and better things."
@@Joe-mz6dc Ok, look, I'm a retired MD. There were no financial interests for them in closing their doors to patients, masking, canceling surgery, canceling patient visits. What do you really know about the incomes of real clinical doctors? Nothing!!
I watched you on the Stanford debates, and cheered 'that's my favourite doctor.' Finally, an intelligent discussion, rather than a politician on the mike demanding 'get vaccinated.' Or absolutely illegal mandates.
I'm assuming he means don't take zinc as a therapeutic. It plays an important role in building a strong immune system though, so you don't want to be deficient.
Back in 2020 after my meager supply of hardware dust masks ran out, I went to Costco to buy the "proper" ones. Disclaimer #4 on the box: "Not for the prevention of infectious disease." [This may not be an exact, verbatim quote, but you get the point.] The Pharma Industrial Complex made fools of us all. Cheers.
My son was 15 when schools closed during COVID-19. Remote learning went into effect. Oh my, did that affect him until today. He is now in his second year in college - at a state school, which is not where he wanted to go. He didn't get into the top schools in the country, mainly because he didn't get stellar grades. His high school failed him miserably. I did my best with the high school administration to help my son because remote learning simply wasn't working for him. Instead, they applied a uniform approach which didn't take into account of the individual needs of each student. My son is still very motivated but he is a different person now. He hardly shows emotions. He wants to never work from home - absolutely hates the whole virtual work and hybrid model. 2020 absolutely sucked for my son. I haven't hugged my son since then. He refuses to touch anyone. I hope he finds himself one day. There's only one thing he is looking for now - to belong.
Thank you for sharing this. I have wondered many times how people your son's age have been affected. I hope he can make something positive out of his experience at some point in the future.
My that is so sad. It seems a profound loss of joy and gain of fear and complacency, having little hope. I hope that a greater depth begins to bloom for him soon and that he can see the things for which he has to be thankful .
Omg the uniform policy seriously its such a half-ass slap in the face of a solution. To me it’s just such a little thing in comparison to larger reasons kids struggled. My daughter’s school also did this as well as freeze grades for the first 3 months. Could go up but not down. Really just delayed the inevitable as the kids still didn’t know how to manage online school and there wasn’t any help teaching them that.
We now live in a world where the so-called experts in fields that require real expertise don’t have the backbone to think and speak, and where we now have new kinds of “experts” in new fields of “expertise” to (mis)inform us on water-is-wet questions.
10:36 I'm going to keep pointing this out until a Vinay recognizes this basic fact about long covid or long anything and the claim that it's "psychosomatic": A chronic nutrient deficiency (such as Mg deficiency) will cause anxiety and depression, be more likely in certain populations (ie women), worsen when recovering from an illness (any illness, covid or otherwise) and exhibit all the signs of "long covid". Mg deficiency, for example, explains the reality of the long covid phenomenon far better than "psychosomatic" does.
Excellent video but your comments on vitamin D and Ivermectin and zinc and so on are incorrect. I am a good case study as well as many others. It works.
Even I reviewed the age data as a lay person at the beginning, and came to the obvious conclusions. I tried to point it out to others, but the narrative and censorship had started. So scary that people are quick to jump off cliffs after others.
When I had to wear a mask, like Costco, I had two standard ones. 1) cut up my son’s outgrown Star Wars brief underpants (they were new), and wrote LIE and YES THESE ARE UNDERPANTS on them just for kicks. 2) bought a belly dancer’s veil with sequins. Had such a sheer thing - my ready reply is, mine is a costume, yes, but so is yours. They work as well as one another.
I moved from Santa Clara County and Newsom's California in 2020. All my neighbors in Nevada are from the Bay Area. I do not know one who is moving to California except the illegal migrants, which has been a problem for taxpayers there since at least ths 1980s, when Calif. was told they had to provide health care and schooling to them with no Federal help. Hence Calif. having some of the worst public schools in the Country while also having the best economy (until Newsom).
My granddaughter has gotten so timid and shy. She had never been that way before covid, it because she was at home and not face to face with people so now she is afraid to be.
The few times I attempted to listen to Z Dog I actually had to bail. The information he was putting out was completely inaccurate, unscientific and pro-vaccine/masking, etc… I’m a nurse who chose not to get the shot, and several of my coworkers listened/listen to him and were vaccinated and still get Boosters.
Why is it that Zero hospital administrators got punished for not having a 3 month supply of masks etc for their staff on hand for emergencies and pandemics?
Yes, he's interesting to listen to but he is still in traditional doctor mode. He has stressed the importance of RCTs for treatments but given how most research is funded that is increasingly questionable. A number of doctors around the world had various treatment protocols which were effective. Some doctors treated thousands of patients with little or no deaths or even hospitalisations.
@@simonestreeter1518Right. They call this the Cobra Effect. Perverse incentive. Which is what happend the entire time. And some still trying to hold onto that power.
Love what you do Dr. Prasad, but I think you have a blind spot when it comes to supplementation. I’ve found Zinc to be as close to a magic bullet as one can get, if taken early enough at the onset of cold sx. If you did the same, and then benefitted from a week of not feeling like crap, what will you do at the next onset of cold sx? Decline the zinc because of the RCT’s? Or trust in your personal experience and what your body’s telling you?
As a Northern Californian, I am so glad you are on top of everything happening in our state. I emailed the head of public health of Alameda County this morning, sharing the most recent guest article from sensible medicine about why new mask mandates are harmful. I hope the public outcry causes change in the right direction! Thank you! ❤
The reliance on credentialed "experts" during the pandemic was infuriating to me. As a software developer, I wouldn't have much of a career if experts in my field were good at their jobs. I think the lack of emphasis on critical thinking is probably pervasive in more fields than just public health and medicine; it's likely ubiquitous throughout society.
I love your commentary, Dr Prasad. The Covid insanity which continues where I live was a big contributor to my decision to retire early from healthcare. The stupidity was too demoralizing. Thank you for your voice of reason.
I have done it before during Covid restrictions but it was because I forgot to take off my mask after visiting a store that mandated masks. It’s possible the person just forgot to take off their mask.
@@wiggly103 It’s possible, but a ton of people just came out of their houses with the mask already on and got in their cars, as if that would make any difference other than being an annoying, uncomfortable hinderance.

It is past time for the house of medicine to conduct a root cause analysis of our failures during the pandemic. We lost so much credibility with the public because we allowed our voices to be silenced. As a physician dealing with the laboratory response, it was infuriating to watch as thought leaders were censored. The scientific method is predicated on challenging results, methods and conclusions. The “follow the science” mantra was mostly parroted by those unburdened by deep intellect. It was refreshing to have voices like yours and ZDogg’s during those challenging days. Hopefully, medicine as a collective will acknowledge mistakes made in order to spare future generations.

Always appreciate your commentary. Please keep it up! We need your voice! We may differ on vitamin cocktail applications however. As someone with who has gone through the nutrition/ dietetics program I have been in the nutrition data for a long time. I agree most of the randomized trails have not revealed much but most of what has been evaluated have been ridiculously conservative doses. I have anecdotally seen amazing results at higher more aggressive dosages. I concede that it is not evidenced based and in the literature, but I am not so easy to dismiss it's efficacy in higher doses.

Just saw a video describing spike protein bits in the stomach mucosal layers and found in autopsies of intestines. They think that could be leading to long covid.
The Stanford panel was such a catharsis .. to hear truth being spoken aloud and different takes on origins, policies and practices being debated for future pandemics .. THANK YOU for bringing your perspective to it!! ❤
How we knew school should not be closed: lots of private schools stayed open. The private schools near me closed early in 2020, reopened on time in the fall, and had a long winter break -- when kids were traveling for the holidays, when it was unknown whether flu would also emerge, and so forth, and during that time also had a short period of remote learning. Then they came back by mid-January for regular in-person school for the rest of the year. No drama, no more pauses, totally sensible.
@@wyleecoyotee4252 By me they were back to school in the fall of 2020 (or, technically late summer, as fall begins around September 21st). The school closure that year was for 10 weeks starting in March, then a longer holiday break at the end of the calendar year with some remote learning, but the students had already had 3 months in person at that point, starting as they normally would.
Cannot agree more with other commenters: Dr Prasad is a sane, honest and very brave expert in a sea of ( mostly) sharks, holding on to the truth. What’s more , he takes time to share his views with us, the public. Considering his other activities: treating pts, research, teaching , writings ,etc. I sometime wonder: does he sleep at all?!?! Rhetorical Q., of course😅 A priceless service of education to humanity in general. Bravo!! and million thanks. Please, continue!!
I saw the idiocy when it was coming out. I’m not in medical field but I have done a lot of research in the field and have a healthy dose of horse sense. I’m unvaxed and did not wear masks except to get groceries as that’s the only way I could, but knew it was stupid. I’m 77 yrs old now and have never had Covid. My daughters who refused to listen took the jab plus one booster and have had Covid more than once and are suffering autoimmune problems.
Been watching the Stanford Policy Forum. Very interesting, you get a feel for who showed up to talk as in where they were standing during the “pandemic”. We need this to be out in the mainstream. I am sharing with friends and family.
I watched your talk at Emory on zoom and you slayed! I appreciate you so much, Dr. Prasad! You continue to be the voice of reason throughout these times, and that has been so validating and has kept me sane, when I was often the only person in my world who was questioning the narrative. I live in the Bay Area too and there are people around here who never stopped wearing masks and still do to this day….
You are the best voice of any kind that is saving lives with common sense medical advice. I got no jabs. I live my life by 1 simple fucking rule, do the opposite of what the government says!!! Ill live well past 100 with that rule alone. I promise !!!
There were ZERO schools closed in British Columbia, Canada, from covid. I am a school trustee 10 years. It is the only 1st world jurisdiction that ALWAYS had schools open.
I did not know that. It is hard to believe, knowing what I do know about B.C. Watching people blitzed on free heroin from the government bent double in the streets of Vancouver this year was mind-blowing. They seem primed to do the wrong thing now.
Your comments about people in public heath is spot on. Early in the pandemic I mused to others why we took people in the backwaters of medicine and made them the decision makers. It made zero sense. It’s like making a mid-level engineer in a large firm CEO overnight, just because she has expertise on an important component of a new product. Sure, be an advisor, but here is a whole lot more to running a company, especially a large one.
I fully agree with you on almost all the points you mentioned. I only dare to disagree on the subject of vitamin D, as there are indeed meaningful studies on this subject. Among other things, those who have been working on this topic for a long time were very quick to ascertain the Vit. D status of seriously ill and/or deceased infected people after the first scaremongering reports about the supposedly deadly new C virus. As far as I know, all of them had a significantly low vitamin D level. Vit. D deficiency is widespread, especially in people who hardly ever get out in the sun, and is exacerbated if they live in areas where the sunlight does not have the necessary intensity all year round to guarantee the body's own Vit. D production, hardly ever exposing bare skin or uncreamed skin to the sun. As Vit. D plays a major role in our organisms, especially when it comes to the functioning of our immune system, I am very surprised that you do not seem to have studied the many aspects of this topic in detail. It is definitely a building block with enormous potential if you realize that today's lifestyle implies a deficiency and that this deficiency can manifest itself in many different ways - be it autoimmune diseases, chronic fatigue, increased susceptibility to infections, diabetes, etc. I think it would be fatal to ignore this component...
Me too, and the welcome comic relief feels to validate frustration, while releasing steam for clearer vision and thinking about what's going on and how to navigate it.
Dr. Prasad going off at 23:51 was awesome. I believe these statements accurately reflect the thoughts of the majority, but I'll have to consult my government appointed social media personality expert for confirmation... 🤣

So much for the experts.It's a shame the medical establishment has allowed itself to fall into such disripute.
Ever since Obamacare, doctors have become government employees, in effect, and they now just tick the boxes and talk the “company line”…. The medical establishment is full of crap!
It only took four years to be able to talk about Covid policy... shameful!
Given how powerful groups - government, industry - are so intertwined with this debacle, it is a miracle of human events that we are getting an honest perspective out so soon
Yes that’s exactly how I feel
Agreed! It goes against science!
And the west think they have free speech we are so brainwashed
I got 2 accounts deleted because of it. And now we've not heard from Dr. Prasad in 9 days.
You are a godsend to RUclips. You teach all, from non medical to medical persons about how to do your due diligence instead of just believing the "professionals" plus your are hilarious! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts 💕
We haven't heard from him in 9 days .. I'm trying not to be concerned.
11:40 "They purchased billions of it [Paxlovid] without even knowing the results of the study. That's only something idiots would do." Rather than giving them a pass as idiots, I'd suggest looking at conflicts of interest and profits.
One or two mistakes indicates idiocy. A perfect track record of getting everything backwards and wrong suggests deliberate malevolence.
A trial study was done with paclovid, and it was no better than a pla ebo.
Idiots all the way to the bank

It is a cover for all of the greed and venality to dismiss 'them' as idiots. I do believe this man can think well enough to figure that out. So what is his game, besides walking a lucrative tightrope between our abused trust and a future windfall?
CDC officials aren't idiots they're tools of their bosses and their bosses masters and they have blood on their hands.
Zero debates? Now ZERO trust ... in so many so-called experts and authorities. ZERO
My eldest sister is a so-called "highly educated medical profesional". She has worked for years as a sort of go-between with Big Pharm and government agencies such as the FDA, essentially reviewing medical trials on new drugs and getting FDA approval (or, presumably, advising against approval). She has done rather well for herself in this career, owning two million dollar homes - one for the warm months in a wealthy suburb north of Chicago, the other in Arizona where she hides during winter. And no one i know (and I do mean NO ONE) fell harder for every single sliver of the official narrative. Whether this arose from sincere belief in that narrative, or just plain parroting of the BS, I simply cannot know.
But what I do know is that there is no longer any excuse for a "highly educated medical profesional" to still be defending the official narrative from 4 years ago.... yet that is exactly what my sister is doing!
Why is COVID still running wild? It's because people like me didn't get the jab! According to her, it is a "civic duty".
A little over a year ago, she wrote the following in a group text conversation...
"Just walked through the airport in Chicago. It is so disappointing to see only about 1 in 20 wearing masks!" My eyes rolled so hard they very nearly popped out of my skull.
Just the other day in another group text message between Her, myself and four other siblings (four other siblings who took her advice, got the jabs and are now regretting that decision) she was urging everyone to stay up-to-date on their vaccinations. I ask a series of very simple questions concerning the jabs... questions a so-called "highly educated medical professional" ought to be able to shed some light on..... things like....
- Why did Pfizer ask a federal court to allow them 65 years before releasing all the raw data from the clinical trial?
- How is it possible to judge the long-term risk vs benefit profile for a new intervention if the clinical trial participants are unblinded after two short months?
- Given that healthy children are at essentially zero risk from a COVID infection, why has the FDA approved and encourage their use in children as young as 6 months old?
And she answered not a single one in a direct way. Instead her answer sounded like it could have been penned by Pfizer's legal department.
It has been a strange experience over the last 4 years. No one's intellect and integrity did I hold in higher respect and regard than my eldest sister, and now there is no one I hold in such outright disappointment and disregard. And she knows it, and acts as though the problem is with me and my lack of understanding.
Zero debate = zero Trust. I love that.
Wow! Your cursing and scoffing at the policies/people/institutions many of have been cursing and scoffing at for 4 years give me great joy. Welcome! I had faith in you all along.
My Motto: I Swear because I Care.
When the first trials of MRNA vaccines were done, the drug companies said they weren't checking to see if it prevented transmission. Given this, there was never any reason to believe that it would and thus never any justification for mandates.
Bingo
I don't think Pfizer actually admitted that until 2022. Many people, including politicians, believed that the jab stopped the spread. There were people saying that if everyone took the jab, the virus would disappear.
Succinctly said.
You are absolutely correct. They intentionally designed the trials to omit testing for transmission because they knew ahead of time that the vaccines would fail in that regard.
pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9941884/
"Immunity from neutralizing antibodies generated by existing vaccines is relatively short-lived and does not confer sterilizing immunity, which allows for ongoing transmission. Furthermore, SARS-CoV-2 has continued to circulate and evolve, resulting in SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern that can evade immune protection from infection or vaccination."

Thank you Doctor. I'm a post pandemic retired Respiratory Therapist, thanks for giving voice to my thoughts.
If y'all had been able to do your jobs, a lot more people would be alive today.
@@laveraparato258 That’s a wild take. I hope u consider the public’s treatment of healthcare workers is one of the reasons no one wants to work in the hospitals anymore. It’s also really irrational to blame this stranger on the internet for anything to do with covid deaths..
The truth is if we had treated covid like any other respiratory illness many probably would be alive. Intubation is a last resort, not a first especially in the elderly. Stack those respiratory treatments bipap, cpap. This is coming from a nurse who worked in the ER. We could have done some of the treatments outside. It was a time to be brave and think outside the box.
@@laveraparato258Yea, the kids who committed suicide and the people who refused to think for themselves and say no to the jab - but these individuals are not responsible. The government and Universities with hospitals and research centers such as OSU are! Gov Dewine didn't think or listen to anyone outside of the democrat regime - and he is supposed to be a Republican!
@@user-xv1kp6qf7hhe means that Dr's should have just treated it normally and not be afraid to do so. My doctor did so, and I survived on zpac and prednisone. But only when he was done with his hands being tied. And I'm grateful for that. Doctors should NOT let government dictate treatment. Especially when it works. The only thing it did was sweeten the pot with money. And that kept many mouths shut or lose license, like some did early on. They were called quacks and discredited. I saw articles on the very Doctor that tried to do so early on. And every single one was blacklisted and slandered. So instead of standing up as one entire group, the rest went along with it. They cowered and took the incentives to make protocols that killed instead. So they could pass more government laws and scare people into submission. Some of them enjoyed that power. What a mess. It's their own fault. Not ours. They deserve it. And if I see someone with covid protocols, I know who not to trust.
I’ll never get over how fast they fenced off the playgrounds at all the parks here in Minnesota. Unreal.
They sure got the "rules" for playing golf out fast too. Somebody had to sit down and write on what to do with ball washers and pins. Crazy.
I was shocked at what they fenced off, for regular urban parents/children. I am lucky I go out of town to family. 1000's of city people travelled out of town to enjoy the outdoors, in places the city could not touch and lock up. Same in a provincial park, again 1000's of people where you seldom see people. The people did not believe the government about their lockdowns and side stepped them.
I saw 1000's of people who left the city to avoid the silly gated up and locked up playgrounds.
Well, when you and your friends do nothing about it then less moral humans will do whatever they want to do. The shoulders that bear that responsibility are yours

💯
true. But he also believes in the existence of a new disease. And in his hospitals around him they enforce masks! Like putting up wire-mesh fences around people.
Dr. Prasad was all for the shots when they came out. But to his credit, he has now analyzed the shots and their inherent major problems especially for young people. Thus, I give him an enormous amount of respect, he will adjust his position based on facts. Sadly, we need many more Dr. Prasad's in the world instead of those who are trying to still justify their faulty and harmful positions.
Another such is Dr John Campbell from the UK. Was originally pro but has admitted his error and well worth listening to.
Agree, but his physician friend, ZDogg, is an arrogant ass who patronized anyone who questioned the narrative.
Don’t you think we closed schools, not because children were at risk, but because teachers were afraid. Their unions are strong.
Weingarten colluded with FJB to close down schools. They are evil.
They told people to wear masks outside in the woods , and people did it
People were clearly
Nuts
@@Kroh13 IKR. They even required people to wear masks in the swimming pool. SMH.
That is exactly what happened. The AAP ( American Academy of Pediatrics), in summer of 2020 was recommending that kids return to school in the fall- but after push back from the teachers'union- they reversed their recommendation.
@@amiscrew4 and the union president, Winegarden (?), had a secret meeting with Biden and Biden agreed to shut down schools. Sketchy.

Yes, brilliant 😂
Vinay in Beast Mode; Takes no prisoners!, and brooks no bullshit!!
“There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And, often, there are unintended consequences - people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.”
- Dr. Anthony Fauci
Before he realized he might get blamed for it, and when fear generated a power grab.
And yet, as an unva'xxed person in health care, my employer makes me start wearing a mask on a magical day in November. It's in the Medicare rules.
Masks may not be perfect, but they do reduce the viral load you're exposed to, same as the N95's reduce the sawdust & volatile substance droplets you might be exposed to spraying pesticides. True that fiddling with the mask doesn't help, & people needed to learn that, but still something is better than nothing imo. I think Fauci made that statement during the mad mask rush & masks were scarce, & tptb wanted to conserve them for healthcare. Masks are much less invasive than the fast-tracked alternative.
I saw a video where Fauci was fiddling with his mask.
I was rehired as a paramedic in Toronto, and got suspended for not wearing a mask and asking for what science the policy was based on. My union rep told me "If management has a policy stating you have to wear a helicopter beanie hat, you have to wear it". The service fired me for some BS reason cause I pointed out too many errors and asked uncomfortable questions.
The worst part and the cause of everything bad is not being able to talk about it. Censorship is the real killer.
School closings--at least here in the US, you have to remember that the politically powerful teachers union was vehemently opposed to opening schools. Politics and ignorance triumphed over science.
There is no dissent allowed during a mass formation. After the fact, everyone realizes that the medieval witch hunts were insane, but during the witch hunts, the believers couldn't be convinced that witchcraft was nonsense. As for school closures, it wasn't about the kids, it was about the teachers' union.

It’s good to see the discussion occurring albeit very delayed. Vit D is an immune booster. While I agree it’s no use to start taking it once you’re sick, it should be part of health ensure optimal levels.
Vitamin D is important
Yep, it is essential for regular immune function and for UK citizens it's common to be deficient in the Vital Mineral that is, big D. It takes around two weeks to be converted into active form in the body so, attempting to raise it during the period where apparent disease/ailments are being experienced is quite late. One option there for treatment of severe deficiency would be administering active form intravenously. Check with your local GP/Physician on medical advice and to test for sufficient levels of essential vitamins and minerals your body necessitates for regular function.
@@antoniolum1506 Good summation.
I came looking for this comment. Prevention worth more than a quick cure. Raise immunity before exposure. I work with the public and I don't even get the flu.
@@shellia1929 would you be willing to share your preventative routine?
Lol. I love your videos. Straight to the point and you don't hold back.
I was a health science university college teacher in Sydney Australia (nowhere near your level of knowledge or expertise) and during the COVID19 fiasco I kept shaking my head and saying their response was not right. None of my colleagues agreed and many of them had PhDs (I only have a Masters). Too many educated idiots in my opinion.
It's a welcome relief to see not all high ranking academics lack common sense. I appreciate your work, and the information that you voice.

I agree with most of what you say Dr Prasad, but I was surprised to hear you refer to The Lancet as a reliable source…Have you seen the new documentary film, “First Do No Pharm”? Among other things, it covers the corporate capture of the most prestigious medical journals.
Capture. The perfect word.
The long march through the institutions, has been very thorough.
Yeah, before the "pandemic" I always checked eith Lancet. Now, I just deleat the page whenever it popps up on my screen!
The Lancet is NOT a reliable source.
I’m going to watch, thx 🙏
It is way too late for the Establishment to apologize. It will take years before any credibility is restored.
Generations. Unless there's a serious reckoning and people are jailed there is no chance of a rebuilding of credibility anytime soon.
It's very charitable to say "he viewed...[the precautionary principle] differently". The precautionary principle is quite clear. It says that absent compelling evidence, interventions should be avoided, including interventions like school closures.
I’m an ICU nurse and I have appreciated your content over the past few years. I appreciated the content of the discussion at Stanford! So good! Finally having discussions!!

You are a true AMERICAN HERO! Thank you for your tireless truth seeking.
A hero is somebody who spoke out in the early days not when it is safe to do so . Those ethical doctors and scientists are paying the price.
@juliesharp5077 Easy to say when it's 'just a job'... slightly different when you have a large number of relationships with very ill patients you're trying to save and prolong life.
Say to force the CDC to change course, 50% of consultants, doctors, surgeons and nurses when on strike.... would those hundreds of thousands that die from vast shortages in care be acceptable collateral damage?

@@juliesharp5077 Vinay Prasad works as a consultant in the US... your statement is irrelevant.
@@Andy_T79funny how it's stopping me from answering your last question. It is not irrelevant. Average age of death from COVID was 82 years. Most didn't need that vax even if it's safety wasn't in question.
Thank you Dr. Prasad. I appreciate your thoughts and common sense approach to public health. We all know what Dr. Jay Varma was caught bragging about during his role as the NYC health director. However, how many people have seen the video of Mandy Cohen, currently the director of the CDC, pretty much showing the same arrogance and lack of concern for the people she was tasked with overseeing for the lockdowns. Her strategy she reveals in a seminar at Duke U. was to phone a friend in MA. to see what they were going to do. Are you going to let them have professional football? Ha, ha then neither are we. This video is still on yt. If the people of the US don't have any respect for public health and the agency's and people tasked with those responsibilites, they only have themselves to blame. I will never, ever, trust any gov't agency again. This woman should be fired. With her lack of ethics she isn't qualified to be in charge of fish, in a fishbowl.
From NC and had to listen to Cohen's voice when I just wanted to check the weather. She was never licensed to practice medicine in our state. We knew she was heading on to "bigger and better things."

@@airybrook

There's no money in the masking and shutdowns and vaccines for clinical physicians. What money are you talking about?
I watched you on the Stanford debates, and cheered 'that's my favourite doctor.' Finally, an intelligent discussion, rather than a politician on the mike demanding 'get vaccinated.' Or absolutely illegal mandates.
Zinc supplementation has no positive effect? Where did you get that from?
I'm assuming he means don't take zinc as a therapeutic. It plays an important role in building a strong immune system though, so you don't want to be deficient.
On the front side of the boxes of masks - sold in the stores - it used to say 'Not for Medical Use'.
Back in 2020 after my meager supply of hardware dust masks ran out, I went to Costco to buy the "proper" ones. Disclaimer #4 on the box: "Not for the prevention of infectious disease." [This may not be an exact, verbatim quote, but you get the point.] The Pharma Industrial Complex made fools of us all. Cheers.
It also says it DOESN'T stop corona viruses..
My son was 15 when schools closed during COVID-19. Remote learning went into effect. Oh my, did that affect him until today. He is now in his second year in college - at a state school, which is not where he wanted to go. He didn't get into the top schools in the country, mainly because he didn't get stellar grades. His high school failed him miserably. I did my best with the high school administration to help my son because remote learning simply wasn't working for him. Instead, they applied a uniform approach which didn't take into account of the individual needs of each student.
My son is still very motivated but he is a different person now. He hardly shows emotions. He wants to never work from home - absolutely hates the whole virtual work and hybrid model.
2020 absolutely sucked for my son. I haven't hugged my son since then. He refuses to touch anyone. I hope he finds himself one day. There's only one thing he is looking for now - to belong.
Thank you for sharing this. I have wondered many times how people your son's age have been affected. I hope he can make something positive out of his experience at some point in the future.
My that is so sad. It seems a profound loss of joy and gain of fear and complacency, having little hope. I hope that a greater depth begins to bloom for him soon and that he can see the things for which he has to be thankful .
Given the declining state of education - he’s better off not attending
Omg the uniform policy seriously its such a half-ass slap in the face of a solution. To me it’s just such a little thing in comparison to larger reasons kids struggled.
My daughter’s school also did this as well as freeze grades for the first 3 months. Could go up but not down. Really just delayed the inevitable as the kids still didn’t know how to manage online school and there wasn’t any help teaching them that.
9:17 Admit it - CDC KNOWS what they’re doing. Now why would they KNOWINGLY do the things they’re doing?
All about power and control not about health.

In the words of Ebineezer Scrooge, "to decrease the surplus population!" WEF's plan.

Sorry Doc. I'm never reaching for an SSRI.
AMEN
10:36 I'm going to keep pointing this out until a Vinay recognizes this basic fact about long covid or long anything and the claim that it's "psychosomatic":
A chronic nutrient deficiency (such as Mg deficiency) will cause anxiety and depression, be more likely in certain populations (ie women), worsen when recovering from an illness (any illness, covid or otherwise) and exhibit all the signs of "long covid".
Mg deficiency, for example, explains the reality of the long covid phenomenon far better than "psychosomatic" does.
Vaccine damage also explains 'long covid.'
This one made me legit laugh out loud. I absolutely love it when you get worked up.
Excellent video but your comments on vitamin D and Ivermectin and zinc and so on are incorrect. I am a good case study as well as many others. It works.
N=1
Even I reviewed the age data as a lay person at the beginning, and came to the obvious conclusions. I tried to point it out to others, but the narrative and censorship had started. So scary that people are quick to jump off cliffs after others.
I had the same experience. It wasn't hard to find some data and see we were being given normal numbers, simply out of context.
Thanks Vinay, you're worth watching 100% of the time!!
When I had to wear a mask, like Costco, I had two standard ones.
1) cut up my son’s outgrown Star Wars brief underpants (they were new), and wrote LIE and YES THESE ARE UNDERPANTS on them just for kicks.
2) bought a belly dancer’s veil with sequins. Had such a sheer thing - my ready reply is, mine is a costume, yes, but so is yours. They work as well as one another.
I moved from Santa Clara County and Newsom's California in 2020.
All my neighbors in Nevada are from the Bay Area. I do not know one who is moving to California except the illegal migrants, which has been a problem for taxpayers there since at least ths 1980s, when Calif. was told they had to provide health care and schooling to them with no Federal help. Hence Calif. having some of the worst public schools in the Country while also having the best economy (until Newsom).

Why is it that Zero hospital administrators got punished for not having a 3 month supply of masks etc for their staff on hand for emergencies and pandemics?
And let the garbage overflow with used masks? My hospital did this. It was disgusting.
You’re so good, straight forward and tell it like it is. Thank God there’s a doctor with a brain.

You often make sense but your knowledge or lack of is surprising when it comes to VD, Zinc, Quercetin, VC and even IVM is astounding.
Yes, he's interesting to listen to but he is still in traditional doctor mode. He has stressed the importance of RCTs for treatments but given how most research is funded that is increasingly questionable. A number of doctors around the world had various treatment protocols which were effective. Some doctors treated thousands of patients with little or no deaths or even hospitalisations.
Agree 100%
It is hard to get someone to understand something when his ability to make a living is dependent upon his NOT understanding it.

Great rant, full of truthful information- best kind😊
Love what you do Dr. Prasad, but I think you have a blind spot when it comes to supplementation. I’ve found Zinc to be as close to a magic bullet as one can get, if taken early enough at the onset of cold sx. If you did the same, and then benefitted from a week of not feeling like crap, what will you do at the next onset of cold sx? Decline the zinc because of the RCT’s? Or trust in your personal experience and what your body’s telling you?
Great video Vinay, always calling out the fools and lunatics !
LOL, we knew the ages too.
People just refused to think.
I am so glad Stanford is finally listening to and acknowledging Jay B. and Scott A. It was long overdue.
As a Northern Californian, I am so glad you are on top of everything happening in our state. I emailed the head of public health of Alameda County this morning, sharing the most recent guest article from sensible medicine about why new mask mandates are harmful. I hope the public outcry causes change in the right direction! Thank you! ❤
Don’t comply, it is just a power play, (how is Newsom still in office)?
The reliance on credentialed "experts" during the pandemic was infuriating to me. As a software developer, I wouldn't have much of a career if experts in my field were good at their jobs. I think the lack of emphasis on critical thinking is probably pervasive in more fields than just public health and medicine; it's likely ubiquitous throughout society.
If that shit comes back to SF county, I'm done here.
I'm done period. How can some policies just now in 2024 be lifted?!?!?
I love your commentary, Dr Prasad. The Covid insanity which continues where I live was a big contributor to my decision to retire early from healthcare. The stupidity was too demoralizing. Thank you for your voice of reason.

I saw that all the time and never understood how someone could possibly be so stupid and still operate machinery.
Its probably some kind of S&M fetish.

It is past time for the house of medicine to conduct a root cause analysis of our failures during the pandemic. We lost so much credibility with the public because we allowed our voices to be silenced.
As a physician dealing with the laboratory response, it was infuriating to watch as thought leaders were censored. The scientific method is predicated on challenging results, methods and conclusions. The “follow the science” mantra was mostly parroted by those unburdened by deep intellect.
It was refreshing to have voices like yours and ZDogg’s during those challenging days.
Hopefully, medicine as a collective will acknowledge mistakes made in order to spare future generations.

When you are wrong 100%..10/10.. it's no longer a "mistake".
Always appreciate your commentary. Please keep it up! We need your voice! We may differ on vitamin cocktail applications however. As someone with who has gone through the nutrition/ dietetics program I have been in the nutrition data for a long time. I agree most of the randomized trails have not revealed much but most of what has been evaluated have been ridiculously conservative doses. I have anecdotally seen amazing results at higher more aggressive dosages. I concede that it is not evidenced based and in the literature, but I am not so easy to dismiss it's efficacy in higher doses.

O, but it does, mon amie! It does the one thing that the whole "event" was about, and all that matters: *INCREASING BANK ACCOUNT BALANCES!* 🤑
And laying down a future control grid. Which, ok, will probably increase bank account balances.
Vinay you helped me immensely through the pandemic because i thought i was losing my mind. You kept me sane, you were a voice of reason. ❤
I live in Santa Clara county. The stupidest policy ever
Kudos to you for speaking out and managing to walk the fine line during the pandemic. You and some other brave ones were on the right side of history.
Just saw a video describing spike protein bits in the stomach mucosal layers and found in autopsies of intestines. They think that could be leading to long covid.
Which spike protein, virus spike or vax spike? They are not exactly the same.
The Stanford panel was such a catharsis .. to hear truth being spoken aloud and different takes on origins, policies and practices being debated for future pandemics .. THANK YOU for bringing your perspective to it!! ❤
Yes, but don't be too grateful. Half truths still abound, and can be worse in the long term.

Good for you Eileen. At this rate, you will probably outlive most jabbed millennials.
How we knew school should not be closed: lots of private schools stayed open.
The private schools near me closed early in 2020, reopened on time in the fall, and had a long winter break -- when kids were traveling for the holidays, when it was unknown whether flu would also emerge, and so forth, and during that time also had a short period of remote learning. Then they came back by mid-January for regular in-person school for the rest of the year. No drama, no more pauses, totally sensible.
They didn't return in the fall, they returned in winter.
@@wyleecoyotee4252 By me they were back to school in the fall of 2020 (or, technically late summer, as fall begins around September 21st). The school closure that year was for 10 weeks starting in March, then a longer holiday break at the end of the calendar year with some remote learning, but the students had already had 3 months in person at that point, starting as they normally would.
@@wyleecoyotee4252 I'm telling you the private schools reopened on time. Public stayed closed.
@@wyleecoyotee4252 Kids whose parents pay tuition are healthier somehow?
Don’t reach for an SSRI
Cannot agree more with other commenters: Dr Prasad is a sane, honest and very brave expert in a sea of ( mostly) sharks, holding on to the truth. What’s more , he takes time to share his views with us, the public. Considering his other activities: treating pts, research, teaching , writings ,etc. I sometime wonder: does he sleep at all?!?! Rhetorical Q., of course😅
A priceless service of education to humanity in general. Bravo!! and million thanks. Please, continue!!
Thanks for the interesting medley of your thoughts!
I’m loving this Vinay Prasad.
This is the best one I've seen. I never saw a degree in fact checking either.
Someone on a podcast yesterday pointed out that there is a hierarchy among doctors that starts with government advice so they don't question anything.
I saw the idiocy when it was coming out. I’m not in medical field but I have done a lot of research in the field and have a healthy dose of horse sense. I’m unvaxed and did not wear masks except to get groceries as that’s the only way I could, but knew it was stupid. I’m 77 yrs old now and have never had Covid. My daughters who refused to listen took the jab plus one booster and have had Covid more than once and are suffering autoimmune problems.
Yes, same here. So strange it could be so clear to some of us, and not to so many otherwise smart people.
Been watching the Stanford Policy Forum. Very interesting, you get a feel for who showed up to talk as in where they were standing during the “pandemic”. We need this to be out in the mainstream. I am sharing with friends and family.
Out of precaution, you maintain the null hypothesis.
I watched your talk at Emory on zoom and you slayed! I appreciate you so much, Dr. Prasad! You continue to be the voice of reason throughout these times, and that has been so validating and has kept me sane, when I was often the only person in my world who was questioning the narrative. I live in the Bay Area too and there are people around here who never stopped wearing masks and still do to this day….
Same at Tulane...never been so ashamed of my alma mater
They had hoped we had moved on by now, we are more determined to make people accountable than they gave us credit for.
Oh we will never forget.
You are the best voice of any kind that is saving lives with common sense medical advice.
I got no jabs. I live my life by 1 simple fucking rule, do the opposite of what the government says!!! Ill live well past 100 with that rule alone. I promise !!!
There were ZERO schools closed in British Columbia, Canada, from covid. I am a school trustee 10 years. It is the only 1st world jurisdiction that ALWAYS had schools open.
I did not know that. It is hard to believe, knowing what I do know about B.C. Watching people blitzed on free heroin from the government bent double in the streets of Vancouver this year was mind-blowing. They seem primed to do the wrong thing now.
Your comments about people in public heath is spot on. Early in the pandemic I mused to others why we took people in the backwaters of medicine and made them the decision makers. It made zero sense. It’s like making a mid-level engineer in a large firm CEO overnight, just because she has expertise on an important component of a new product. Sure, be an advisor, but here is a whole lot more to running a company, especially a large one.
You get that they were the mediocre minds most willing to sell out to get ahead, right?
I fully agree with you on almost all the points you mentioned. I only dare to disagree on the subject of vitamin D, as there are indeed meaningful studies on this subject. Among other things, those who have been working on this topic for a long time were very quick to ascertain the Vit. D status of seriously ill and/or deceased infected people after the first scaremongering reports about the supposedly deadly new C virus. As far as I know, all of them had a significantly low vitamin D level. Vit. D deficiency is widespread, especially in people who hardly ever get out in the sun, and is exacerbated if they live in areas where the sunlight does not have the necessary intensity all year round to guarantee the body's own Vit. D production, hardly ever exposing bare skin or uncreamed skin to the sun. As Vit. D plays a major role in our organisms, especially when it comes to the functioning of our immune system, I am very surprised that you do not seem to have studied the many aspects of this topic in detail. It is definitely a building block with enormous potential if you realize that today's lifestyle implies a deficiency and that this deficiency can manifest itself in many different ways - be it autoimmune diseases, chronic fatigue, increased susceptibility to infections, diabetes, etc. I think it would be fatal to ignore this component...
What is your take on Dr. Sabine Hazan's work on microbiome and Covid, Thanks
Fired up today Dr.! I love it. Needed to be said and well said indeed!
Had me rolling when you got to the plagiarism part. Hahahahahah
Me too, and the welcome comic relief feels to validate frustration, while releasing steam for clearer vision and thinking about what's going on and how to navigate it.
I was dying 😂😂
Brave man; deep thinker!
Dr. Prasad going off at 23:51 was awesome. I believe these statements accurately reflect the thoughts of the majority, but I'll have to consult my government appointed social media personality expert for confirmation... 🤣
"plagiarism expert" 🤣🤣🤣
