The goal of this broadcast is to inform we the people. The level of misinformation and outright lies about covid are wreaking havoc on people’s lives. When it comes to early home treatment vs. playing the waiting game and being hospitlaized⏤it can be a matter of life and death. The unknown is a dark and scary place. “As we sit in fear and isolation over a period of time, I think chronic panic and fear have led people down a road that I call therapeutic nihilism,” states Dr. McCullough.
“The problem was, even before the president said I think this is going to be beneficial, hydroxychloroquine, weeks before that there had already started being push back. And the push back is as is most things in life, follow the money,” Dr. Harvey Risch said.
Is the end in sight? Might this be the final wave of Covid? Will the vaccines be a safe bet for people? What if you’ve had Covid already? There are already reports that companies are planning to demand vaccination proof. “Qantas Airlines this week said that they will not fly people at all⏤they won’t let people get on the plane until they’ve gotten the vaccine. So we already have the signals for a masterplan of mass vaccination,” Dr. McCullough said.
