  • The Curious Case of Hydroxychloroquine

    The nakedly political dismissal of hydroxychloroquine during the Covid years is a shameful illustration of destructive forces brought to bear on how medicine is practised in Australia. Now that the panicdemic has receded, that official spurning of an effective medication directly indictments those charged with safeguarding the public good

  • The Curious Tale of Hydroxychloroquine

    How thoroughly was hydroxychloroquine's potential as a COVID treatment dismissed and its advocates derided?

  • The Suppression of Useful COVID-19 Treatments

    One doesn't need a streak of paranoia to notice that Big Pharma, medical bureaucrats and politicians with an undeserved reverence for 'experts' have dismissed and denounced ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. Of all the tragedies associated with the coronavirus, this campaign to suppress cheap and effective early treatments is one of the greatest

  • COVID Vaccines’ Biomechanics and Efficacy

    COVID vaccines' have failed to achieve what was so lavishly promised in the pandemic's early days, when public health officials and others encouraged the mass media to depict inoculations as the silver bullets that would tame and defeat the virus.
