Summary

In the first episode of 2020, we take a look at the devastating toll of Fentanyl use in the United States since it was legalized in 2004. We talk to Dr. Pierre Corey, the President and Chief Medical Officer of the Frontline COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance, about the impact of the rollout of the new drug, Fentanyl, and the cost to the country and the world of those who received it. And we ask the question: How many more deaths will there be from Fentanyl and other drugs like Fentanyl in the years to come? And what will that cost the country, the world, and our health care system in the long-term? And who's to blame for all of the deaths? Guest: Dr. Corey.

Transcript

00:00:00.000 Yeah, of all the lies told in public over the past 10 years, and there are almost too many to count, this may be the most painful of all. It's almost hard to watch, but we're going to play it anyway. Remember this? Make your plan to get one of these vaccines. They are safe and effective. If there's one message,
00:00:30.000 it needs to cut through all this. The vaccines are safe, I promise you. They are safe and effective. Listen to Dr. Fauci.
00:00:39.460 When we say that something is safe and effective, we mean it's safe and effective for everyone.
00:00:46.560 Our vaccinations against COVID-19 are safe. They are effective, and they're more important than ever.
00:00:53.480 This vaccine has gone through the necessary and rigorous evaluation that ensures the vaccine is safe and highly effective.
00:01:01.080 Of course, they were neither safe nor effective, and that was obvious right away, as people who took the vaccine continued to get COVID, and more ominously, as some of them began to die.
00:01:11.280 And a lot of them, probably people around you, got sick in ways that no one anticipated.
00:01:15.300 Anyone watching this carefully, and watching it at all, would know both of those things.
00:01:20.960 And yet, most physicians in this country lied about it, continued to lie about it, and to this day lie about it.
00:01:26.280 That's the topic of another show.
00:01:28.920 But today, we'd like to introduce you to someone who bravely told the truth, regardless of the cost, to himself personally.
00:01:34.840 And that's Dr. Pierre Corey.
00:01:36.100 He's the President and Chief Medical Officer of the Frontline COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance.
00:01:40.100 And he joins us now.
00:01:41.000 Thanks so much for coming on.
00:01:43.100 And the point is really not to resurrect an incredibly painful moment in the country's history.
00:01:47.860 It hurt even to watch that.
00:01:50.100 Why aren't these people in jail?
00:01:52.140 But to assess the cost now.
00:01:54.920 So you hear, and one of the reasons I'm so grateful you're here is because I think you're a responsible, science-based person who's practiced medicine for decades, and what you say can be trusted.
00:02:03.180 Do we have any real sense of what the cost, the physical cost, to the country and world has been of those vaccines?
00:02:09.420 I do think we have some understanding of the cost.
00:02:13.660 I mean, I think you're aware of the work of Ed Dowd, who's put together a team and looked analytically at a lot of the epidemiologic data.
00:02:22.380 I mean, we have estimates for how many people have been killed.
00:02:27.180 We have estimates now, pretty precise estimates, for how many people have landed on the disability rolls.
00:02:31.840 And all of those deaths and entries onto disability are timed with the answer to the vaccination rollout.
00:02:38.080 And, you know, all these discussions about alternative explanations for why that might be, they all fail because you cannot argue against the temporal association.
00:02:47.960 I mean, time with that vaccination rollout is when all of the numbers started going sideways.
00:02:52.600 The excess mortality started to skyrocket.
00:02:54.800 The disability claims started to skyrocket.
00:02:56.900 So it's an immense cost, Tucker.
00:02:59.020 I mean, we can be precise, but it's almost...
00:03:02.100 Well, give us a sense.
00:03:03.680 Like, you were to, on the conservative side, you know, trying to be as responsible and fact-based as possible.
00:03:09.020 But, like, in this country, what kind of death toll are we looking at?
00:03:11.920 So just the most kind of alarming data that I've been writing about is just in 2023 alone, in the first nine months, we had what's called an excess mortality of 158,000 Americans.
00:03:25.960 Now, that's compared to baseline death rates in this country to before the pandemic.
00:03:30.860 But this is in 2023.
00:03:32.580 I mean, we've had Omicron now for two years, which is a mild variant.
00:03:36.200 Not that many go to the hospital.
00:03:37.700 When you look at what's driving, those 158,000 deaths, and by the way, that's more than all wars since Vietnam, including Vietnam.
00:03:45.540 That's more people dying than we've lost in wars.
00:03:48.320 In nine months.
00:03:49.300 In nine months of 2023.
00:03:50.860 Vietnam took 11 years.
00:03:52.600 Exactly.
00:03:53.140 In nine months.
00:03:53.680 Now, all of that, that 158,000 is not all from, let's say, vaccines.
00:03:59.600 There's a portion that is from COVID.
00:04:01.360 Obviously, we have other societal ills which are troubling us.
00:04:04.100 We have a drug epidemic.
00:04:05.040 We have deaths of despair.
00:04:07.280 But those are actually pretty well accounted for.
00:04:10.000 Well, those have been going on for some time.
00:04:12.220 You can't blame all that.
00:04:13.800 Fentanyl did not just arrive in this country in the third quarter of 2021.
00:04:18.080 And even more troubling with the data is who is dying?
00:04:22.660 It's not the elderly.
00:04:23.900 I mean, our life expectancy in this country dropped by three years in a span of three years.
00:04:28.820 Now, who has to die arithmetically for that to happen?
00:04:31.280 Young people.
00:04:32.060 And what the data is screaming is that it's not only the young people that are dying, but
00:04:36.860 they're the healthiest and most employed.
00:04:39.020 So the employed is a risk factor for death now.
00:04:42.720 And so you're left with a conclusion looking at this data.
00:04:45.800 You're left with two big questions.
00:04:47.680 Why was there an explosion in the youngest, an explosion in dying in the youngest and healthiest
00:04:53.080 sectors of society?
00:04:54.240 And why did the employed fare far worse than those that weren't?
00:04:59.120 And it's particularly white-collar.
00:05:01.040 White-collar more than gray-collar, more than blue-collar.
00:05:04.240 And so you're left with a question.
00:05:05.060 Wait, fared worse?
00:05:06.400 Fared worse.
00:05:06.980 That's the opposite of what you would expect.
00:05:08.960 One hundred percent.
00:05:09.820 So why is the healthiest, most educated, wealthiest sectors of our labor force dying at higher rates
00:05:15.780 than those that are what are called gray-collar, like cops and teachers, versus blue-collar?
00:05:20.820 And you have to ask yourself, what happened in the American world?
00:05:24.760 White-collar workplace.
00:05:25.760 That's crazy.
00:05:26.620 Never, never.
00:05:27.340 This is unprecedented.
00:05:28.280 Because that's the healthiest segment of society, people who are dragging their-
00:05:31.240 Always have been.
00:05:31.900 ...selves out of bed every morning.
00:05:33.440 Always have been.
00:05:34.560 For very good reason.
00:05:35.500 They tend to be the most educated, employed, wealthy, and so generally the healthiest.
00:05:41.280 They have all the risk factors.
00:05:42.160 Fittest, best food.
00:05:43.280 One hundred percent.
00:05:44.000 Exercise.
00:05:44.440 And that's what my practice is full of today, is formerly really successful, healthy people
00:05:50.140 who are now effectively disabled.
00:05:53.060 Well, that's even worse than I understood.
00:05:55.400 Oh, it's been hard to watch.
00:05:57.200 And when you made reference to people joining disability roles, what do those numbers look
00:06:01.560 like?
00:06:02.120 So in three years, we've added, I think at the last count, four million people to the
00:06:08.420 disability roles.
00:06:09.380 And again, again, another signal.
00:06:11.880 Who entered the disability roles?
00:06:14.000 The employed entered at higher rates than the unemployed.
00:06:18.300 And so why are, again, why are most healthiest employed folks dying at higher rates?
00:06:23.460 Because you think, I mean, not to be rude, but I mean, I think social scientists have thought
00:06:27.500 this for a long time.
00:06:29.040 Disability is kind of stealth welfare for a lot of people.
00:06:31.900 Can be.
00:06:32.540 It can be.
00:06:33.260 Sure.
00:06:33.900 But if you're, people are leaving, like, decent jobs, that's, that, the medical condition is
00:06:41.820 That's a good point you're making.
00:06:42.640 You're a good point.
00:06:43.180 Why would someone leave a job to go on disability?
00:06:45.540 I mean, disability is not, compared to being employed, it certainly doesn't offer you the
00:06:50.060 No, no, no, it's like a seasonal thing, you're a carpenter in a cold climate, wintertime
00:06:54.340 you go on disability.
00:06:55.540 But that's not this.
00:06:56.720 No, that's not this.
00:06:58.540 And the most telling is really the data from the group life insurance industry, because
00:07:04.200 group life insurance is generally, you're talking about Fortune 500 companies, right?
00:07:09.040 So those of us who work for employers that offer us group life health insurance tend
00:07:13.480 to be large corporations, well, you know, that have the kind of resources that they can
00:07:17.680 support their labor force that way.
00:07:19.300 And when you look at the group life insurance industry, that, that was the kind of the canary
00:07:22.880 in the coal mine is when we started to see the reports in the life insurance industry,
00:07:26.400 where you saw in the third quarter of 2021, just immense, a doubling of the death rates
00:07:32.560 in the age groups of 25 to 30, 20, yeah, 25 to 34 and 35 to 44.
00:07:38.280 And in one quarter, you just saw this explosion and dying.
00:07:42.000 And no one's asking the question, Tucker.
00:07:44.140 I mean, okay.
00:07:44.600 So it's, you've been practicing medicine for decades.
00:07:48.280 You practice for a long time in an academic setting at a big, big research university.
00:07:52.920 So presumably you're familiar with these kinds of data sets.
00:07:55.460 Has anything like this happened that you're aware of before?
00:07:58.460 Unprecedented.
00:07:59.000 And that comes from CEOs of the life insurance industry, right?
00:08:02.060 So one of the big sort of events was at the end of 2021, the CEO of One America, one of
00:08:10.360 the largest life insurance companies at a chamber of conference, commerce meeting in
00:08:14.600 Indianapolis said that they were observing an increase in life insurance claims of 40%.
00:08:21.800 Now let's put that in context.
00:08:23.160 He also said a rise of 10% year to year.
00:08:26.500 Remember, this is life insurance industry, right?
00:08:28.600 How do they make their money?
00:08:29.700 Oh, yeah.
00:08:30.340 Predicting death rates.
00:08:31.340 Of course.
00:08:31.660 Very accurately.
00:08:32.500 Setting premiums appropriately so that there's a profit.
00:08:35.140 If they see a 10% unexpected rise in a certain sector of society, that is a one in 200 year
00:08:41.660 event.
00:08:42.380 And here he says that they're seeing 40%.
00:08:45.360 Unprecedented, outside of wartime, outside of some major terrorist event.
00:08:49.680 What could be causing such an explosion in dying of healthy employed people?
00:08:56.560 And this is the secret that we know.
00:08:58.600 This is almost like private knowledge because we can't bring this private knowledge out into
00:09:02.120 common knowledge.
00:09:02.740 There's very few vehicles to do that.
00:09:04.540 I think you've given the opportunity for many of us who have this private, really disturbing
00:09:08.240 knowledge.
00:09:09.440 But it's a challenge.
00:09:15.160 The swamp in Washington has closed in on the Supreme Court.
00:09:19.680 To muddy its future with plans for court packing.
00:09:23.340 And term limits to purge the court's conservatives.
00:09:26.740 Shifting the balance to churn out radical decisions.
00:09:30.780 But you can keep the swamp at bay by insisting candidates for president or congress come clean
00:09:36.440 on whether they plan to restructure the court.

00:09:44.360 Hillsdale College offers many great free online courses, including a recent one on Marxism,
00:09:50.640 Socialism, and Communism.
00:09:52.360 Today, Marxism goes by different names to make itself seem less dangerous.
00:09:56.740 Names like critical race theory, gender theory, and decolonization.
00:10:00.920 No matter the names, this online course shows it's the same Marxism that works to destroy
00:10:05.600 private property, and that will lead to famines, show trials, and gulags.

00:10:16.300 That's Tucker, F-O-R, Hillsdale.com.
00:10:20.900 Well, it's just so crazy to me.
00:10:25.500 I can't believe this is happening.
00:10:26.720 And by the way, I have no weird agenda.
00:10:28.080 I don't want it to happen.
00:10:29.080 I think it's awful, actually.
00:10:30.620 Well, I think if I, you know, looking at your, the kind of the montage you showed before we
00:10:35.000 started to talk, you know, that, that refrain of safe and effective, it's my kind of belief
00:10:41.080 looking back and now is that was a predetermined conclusion.
00:10:44.380 There was no data to support that, but it was agreed upon that it would be presented as
00:10:48.760 safe and effective.
00:10:49.460 And for those of us who were a little bit more skeptical, more data-driven, we saw that
00:10:54.300 it was based on really no data, and the data started going sideways south.
00:10:58.980 But the refrain got louder and more pervasive, and then they doubled down.
00:11:04.920 They started to demonize the unvaccinated.
00:11:06.340 Well, that's a criminal act that you're describing.
00:11:09.140 So, I mean, I could ask you so many different questions about why the people who made that
00:11:13.540 claim and abetted the killing of all these Americans aren't being held to criminal liability
00:11:19.180 before that.
00:11:20.180 But, now that I was as a lawyer, what was the effect on your life when you started to describe
00:11:26.180 the data you were seeing?
00:11:27.620 Yeah.
00:11:28.620 So, I'm going to say that before I sort of dug deep on the data, I was seeing things clinically
00:11:34.360 that was really troubling me.
00:11:35.700 The amount of people-
00:11:36.700 Clinically, student.
00:11:37.700 Clinically, meaning just observationally in my practice, people approaching me-
00:11:40.540 As a doctor treating patient.
00:11:41.540 Yeah.
00:11:42.540 This isn't data.
00:11:43.540 This isn't numbers on my paper.
00:11:44.540 Right, right.
00:11:45.540 They started to send me that something was going on.
00:11:48.540 That same thing happened to me.
00:11:49.540 Yeah.
00:11:50.540 It's not a question.
00:11:51.540 And to other colleagues that I know that were observant, like-
00:11:53.540 Like, what did you see?
00:11:54.540 So, people started to come to me complaining of lots of different problems after the vaccine.
00:12:00.540 And, you know, I was advocating for a lot of things, fighting censorship propaganda.
00:12:05.540 There's lots of lies that were told in COVID.
00:12:07.540 I mean, the vaccine's one set of lies.
00:12:08.540 Yeah.
00:12:09.540 Suppression of early treatment drugs is another.
00:12:10.540 They were kind of mirror images of each other.
00:12:12.540 They both had the same goals.
00:12:15.540 Slightly different tactics, but propaganda and censorship were the main weapons.
00:12:19.540 So, I've been kind of fighting one war and then got very interested in the vaccines because
00:12:24.540 I saw a huge need.
00:12:26.540 I started to meet lots of vaccine injuries.
00:12:28.540 Started to work with some of those non-profits.
00:12:30.540 You know my non-profit, which is- we're a medical education organization focused solely
00:12:35.540 on developing treatment protocols for all phases of COVID.
00:12:39.540 Prevention, treatment, long vax, long COVID.
00:12:42.540 But then we started to get really interested in vaccine injury because it was a new disease.
00:12:46.540 It was a new problem.
00:12:47.540 And I also want to tell you another deception.
00:12:50.540 The entire country medical system calls the chronic problems after COVID, they call it long COVID.
00:12:57.540 Right?
00:12:58.540 You've heard of the term disease long COVID.
00:12:59.540 So, I'm an expert at it.
00:13:00.540 But the reality is, if you look at my practice, maybe 1,200 patients, 70% are long vax, not long COVID.
00:13:09.540 Meaning all of their issues, the syndrome started after the vaccine, not COVID.
00:13:15.540 The vast majority are long vaccines.
00:13:17.540 So, the only disease that's recognized in this country is long COVID.
00:13:21.540 All the academic medical centers, they have these little long COVID clinics.
00:13:24.540 It's not vaccine injury clinics.
00:13:26.540 It's long COVID clinics.
00:13:27.540 So, there's this constant burying of the role of the vaccine in what's befallen society.
00:13:33.540 Well, why?
00:13:34.540 I mean, that's so evil that it's hard to believe it's happening.
00:13:36.540 It threatens so much.
00:13:38.540 It not only threatens the reputation, credibility of our health agencies, which is already, I think, splintered and fragmented.
00:13:44.540 Yes, forever.
00:13:45.540 I mean, a week ago, a paper was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
00:13:49.540 I just saw it this morning, where they actually surveyed people's attitudes towards the agencies and the vaccines.
00:13:55.540 And a majority, about half to 60%, all have concerns over whether these things are safe.
00:14:01.540 Now, I don't think that was going to be the answer two years ago.
00:14:04.540 But a good portion of society now is now questioning not only whether the agencies are telling the truth when they make these proclamations, but you can see it in their hesitancy to get the boosters.
00:14:16.540 I mean, those numbers are plummeting.
00:14:17.540 So I do think that people are slowly becoming aware.
00:14:20.540 But for those of us who've been aware for a long time and have been trying to fight to get people informed, it's been a war.
00:14:26.540 It's been a long couple of years.
00:14:27.540 And all of us have suffered from censorship, loss of jobs.
00:14:31.540 I've lost three jobs in COVID from my advocacy and expertise.
00:14:34.540 And so it hasn't been easy.
00:14:36.540 But we lost jobs in science.
00:14:38.540 Well, yeah, I lost clinical jobs.
00:14:40.540 My first one, I have to admit, I resigned, but for very serious reasons, I saw what I thought was unethical behavior that was early in COVID.
00:14:52.540 The second one is because I gave public testimony in the Senate around the use of ivermectin.
00:14:58.540 And then the third one, it's pretty clear that that came from outside.
00:15:03.540 They told that hospital to get rid of me.
00:15:05.540 Because they just had too many competent doctors.
00:15:07.540 They didn't need another?
00:15:08.540 Something like that, Tucker.
00:15:09.540 Did you ever think that could happen here?
00:15:12.540 Never.
00:15:13.540 Never.
00:15:14.540 I mean, if you look at my partners, right?
00:15:15.540 So my organization, we call ourselves the FLCCC, founded by Professor Paul Merrick, who's the most published practicing intensivist in the history of our specialty.
00:15:25.540 He was railroaded out of his hospital with a sheaf of complaints about his behavior after 30 years as a physician, as a celebrated physician who's won awards, lectured all over the world.
00:15:36.540 Suddenly he has eight complaints, and they get rid of his privileges.
00:15:39.540 My other colleague, Umberto Maduri, one of the world experts on the use of corticosteroids, he works for the VA, which is the federal government.
00:15:47.540 And he gets pressure to resign.
00:15:50.540 They told him they would take his pension if he didn't resign.
00:15:52.540 And he was also privately told that that information came from Washington.
00:15:56.540 And I've seen this in some of my other colleagues.
00:15:59.540 Jim Thorpe, one of the most outspoken OB-GYNs in the country, he lost his job, even being the most productive physician in that group.
00:16:07.540 We know that the pressure's coming outside.
00:16:10.540 They need us to lose our jobs so that we lose credibility, so that we lose our voice.
00:16:15.540 Because nobody wants to listen to someone who is uncredible.
00:16:18.540 They do this to Bobby Kennedy all the time to try to censor him, right?
00:16:22.540 Because if they can't get you to shut up, they just take away your reputation.
00:16:25.540 But if the evidence presented you suggested strongly that the compound you're suggesting or requiring is killing people, you would think your own conscience would restrain you.
00:16:37.540 I can't push this shit.
00:16:39.540 People are dying.
00:16:40.540 Like, doesn't anyone think that?
00:16:42.540 I don't want to make excuses for people's behavior, but I will be generous and say I think many of them trafficked in a toxic medical intervention,
00:16:54.540 I think many can claim ignorance because I think most physicians are victims of the lies propagated in the high-impact journals.
00:17:05.540 That is a whole issue.
00:17:06.540 What's happened to the high-impact medical journals over the last several decades, how they've been completely captured and run by the pharmaceutical industry,
00:17:13.540 means that the pharmaceutical industry can get doctors to believe whatever they want.
00:17:17.540 By publishing in a small number of journals.
00:17:19.540 Absolutely.
00:17:20.540 How many are there?
00:17:21.540 Well, I usually say the big five, you know, it's New England Journal of Medicine, Journal of the American Medical Association,
00:17:26.540 The Lancet, the BMJ, and Annals of Internal Medicine.
00:17:30.540 But there's a few others.
00:17:31.540 But when you get a paper in there, I mean, that's like, you know, planting a stake in the ground of truth, right?
00:17:37.540 And so if you get a paper, a review paper saying that something's safe and effective, those doctors are now responsible to inform you.
00:17:43.540 Because this is the heights of science.
00:17:45.540 This is the best journals done by the best.
00:17:47.540 This is the impression they have.
00:17:49.540 And I got to tell you, Tucker, this is what I believed before COVID.
00:17:52.540 I literally idolized, deified those journals.
00:17:57.540 I really thought the best science and scientists were published there.
00:18:00.540 And through this journey.
00:18:01.540 In the world.
00:18:02.540 In the world.
00:18:03.540 By far.
00:18:04.540 And to get a paper in there, I thought it would have to be, you know, airtight, best study design, most meticulous data keeping and analysis.
00:18:12.540 And what I've discovered is that's not true.
00:18:15.540 And hasn't been true for a long time.
00:18:17.540 And former editors of those journals are on record.
00:18:20.540 They've written books.
00:18:21.540 As long as 20 years ago, the former editor of the New England Journal of Medicine, a woman named Dr. Marsha Angel, she wrote that over half of what's published in those journals, you should not be believed.
00:18:32.540 And she was a 20 year editor of the top journal in the world.
00:18:35.540 Former editors of the BMJ have tried to say that these warnings have been put out, but they're suppressed.
00:18:40.540 We don't have a class in medical school, by the way, of pharmaceutical industry influence in medicine.
00:18:45.540 I think that should be a required curriculum for anyone going into medicine.
00:18:49.540 But we are purposely kept in the dark as to how controlled and how much financial interests are involved in everything.
00:18:57.540 The guidelines we read, the studies that are done, the studies that are not done.
00:19:01.540 So there's things that they don't want to study because they don't afford profits to the system.
00:19:06.540 And so it's gotten really dark for me.
00:19:11.540 The way I look at science and medicine now is extremely different.
00:19:14.540 It's freaking me out.
00:19:15.540 I'll tell you that.
00:19:16.540 So how aware of any of this were you before 2020?
00:19:20.540 Well, I got to be really humble.
00:19:21.540 It's almost funny.
00:19:22.540 I think my understanding of pharmaceutical industry corruption was like at the level of the drug rep.
00:19:29.540 You know, the very pretty or handsome drug rep who comes in with the high heels and the nice smile and gives pens and invites you to dinner.
00:19:36.540 Like I thought it was that kind of corruption was like most of what they did.
00:19:40.540 Yeah.
00:19:41.540 Now, that's like the icing on the cake.
00:19:44.540 They literally bake the cake.
00:19:46.540 And they can get doctors, going back to the original question, they can get doctors to believe whatever they want to get doctors to believe.
00:19:52.540 And doctors still have an implicit faith and trust in the institutions of science, including which is the agency.
00:19:59.540 When they make a proclamation on national television, that's considered to be scientific truth.
00:20:06.540 Something published in a high impact medical journal is scientific truth.
00:20:09.540 So they believe these institutions without knowing that they've been captured.
00:20:29.540 It acts in tandem in this country, and this is a new thing, with corporate America.
00:20:34.540 It's corporate America that's making America ugly.
00:20:38.540 It's corporate America that's building dollar stores in your neighborhood.
00:20:41.540 It's corporate America that employs the HR morons who scold you and try to dehumanize you.
00:20:46.540 You hate to think we've gotten to a place where corporate America is as great a threat to you as, say, the federal government under Joe Biden.
00:20:54.540 But it is.
00:20:55.540 So what do you do about it?
00:20:57.540 well we recently discovered a marketplace that is doing its very best to change that it's called
00:21:01.700 public square and it's established a new way of conducting commerce by connecting you with over
00:21:07.140 80 000 small businesses that may share your values it feels good to put your money where
00:21:13.700 your values are learn more at public square.com why do you think all these people are dying
00:21:21.060 from the vaccine yeah now we're going to get sciency um no no but why do they i mean so
00:21:28.020 you know i i understand everything you're saying and i'm trying to be compassionate and i've been
00:21:31.780 misled many times in my life and so people can be misled of course but if you have a massive rise
00:21:38.340 in life insurance claims in group policies like even i understand that is wait slow down what's
00:21:44.420 going on how do they account for that they don't know about that they don't know about that
00:21:51.060 i mean i would say things have changed in the last few months so uh since august uh myself and
00:21:57.700 my writing partner mary beth pfeiffer really terrific investigative journalist who first wrote a book
00:22:03.380 looking into chronic lyme disease um she's done great work throughout covet and she and i have now
00:22:08.420 written three op-eds in usa today newsweek and then a couple weeks ago the hill and each op-ed is a little
00:22:17.060 bit more it's calling attention to all of the excess death like why is our government our public
00:22:21.540 health agencies not doing anything about this i mean they literally have one job which is to protect
00:22:25.780 public health yes and they're sitting on an unprecedented surge in dying of americans the
00:22:31.940 youngest and healthiest of americans and they seem to not be questioning that and so we are trying to
00:22:38.580 call attention to that and i would say the last one that got published in the hill
00:22:42.500 that seemed to create a little bit of a news cycle you know i was on fox with laura ingram i think they
00:22:46.740 were she was interested in learning more about this and and we've seen that you know there's a little
00:22:51.220 bit of social media traction but there's there's no official governmental recognition now they've put out
00:22:59.140 uh papers uh showing that they're aware of the mortality but no follow-up they just or they'll give a
00:23:05.060 list of reasons right like the list of reasons well they don't always get as ridiculous as global warming but
00:23:10.020 they get close um just trying to explain away this sudden surge in death and it can't be done so
00:23:16.500 what i mean what is the cdc for example or the federal government more broadly doing for the vaccine
00:23:22.020 injured very very little i'll give you an example so uh remember there is no no such thing as
00:23:30.020 vaccine injury syndrome although i specialize and i have a whole practice which focuses on it
00:23:34.580 it's all long covet so let's just pretend that they're studying vaccine injury with long covet um
00:23:41.300 1.2 billion dollars has been uh dedicated to funding long covet research this is as of two months ago
00:23:48.580 only four trials were set up to enroll patients only one trial was ready to enroll patients and that was
00:23:54.740 a trial studying paxlovid paxlovid if anyone could ever tell me one rational reason why that would work
00:24:03.220 in long covet i'm all ears there's no justifiable rationale for why you would study paxlovid now why
00:24:10.180 you would want to study paxlovid that i can easily answer it's a very profitable drug for a certain
00:24:15.060 pharmaceutical company but literally we're three years into the pandemic we don't have like a really good
00:24:22.020 response into studying and treating long covet instead it's me and a whole network of colleagues
00:24:26.580 and my organization that are really sharing experiences um insights into pathophysiology we're
00:24:33.060 doing reviews of like a lot of basic science studies showing us what the mechanisms of injury
00:24:37.140 are from the spike protein from the virus from the vaccine and we're trying to marshal mechanistic
00:24:42.740 therapies but like it's it's like we're out we're out here in the wild west doing it on our own and
00:24:48.420 it's really a shame because it doesn't have to be this way this is not what you signed up for when
00:24:52.260 you became a physician no i i mean i was a system physician i was embedded in that system like i told
00:24:57.700 you i was uh you know i believed in the journals i taught i taught what i was taught i believed all
00:25:03.460 vaccines were safe i never questioned vaccines um i mean so why do you think and i think you speak for
00:25:09.940 the overwhelming majority of americans when you think our basics you know we've got flaky politicians or
00:25:14.260 weird seasons but the the systems the institutions that make this not third world are totally sound
00:25:20.900 i think everyone thought i thought that but why what about you allowed you to see what was happening
00:25:27.940 and be honest about it why not everyone else well i've always questioned um orthodoxy especially in
00:25:35.700 medicine like uh from early on when i was a doctor when i would come in and especially after i got some
00:25:40.020 training and i would come into new icu or new hospital i'd see like how they were treating for
00:25:44.100 instance like kidney injury uh and i'd be like that's weird that's like data from 15 years ago
00:25:50.580 like why aren't we doing it this way we now know this this and this and that could apply to almost
00:25:55.060 any you know heart failure heart attacks i knew there was evidence showing more insight and more
00:26:01.220 effective therapies but yeah we were doing stuck stuff in the past and i just think change in medicine
00:26:06.740 comes very slowly and i was always an early adopter i like to study new novel therapies and so i was
00:26:12.660 actually you know i talked about paul maric i was celebrated in my specialty pretty well known
00:26:17.540 nationally and even internationally because i was a pioneer in a field called critical care ultra
00:26:22.180 sonography and a textbook that i was the senior editor of is like one of the best-selling textbooks
00:26:27.140 in that field around the world it's seven languages and so i taught for years around the country
00:26:32.340 doctors this new skill on how to use ultrasound to make life-saving diagnoses like critically
00:26:36.660 ill you know patients crashing you put a probe on their chest you could see what their heart was
00:26:40.500 doing the right ventricle left ventricle the lungs were full of fluid so it was this huge like it
00:26:46.100 changed my life when i learned ultrasound i felt like i was a super doctor like a doctor with super
00:26:50.900 powers and i tried to teach those powers and it became standard of care now there's not an ICU in
00:26:56.740 the country that doesn't have an ultrasound machine in it most critical care doctors now get trained
00:27:01.300 there's uh certification exams that you can do and i that's what i did for most of my career and
00:27:06.500 i got interested in something called therapeutic hypothermia which is how to treat patients after
00:27:10.900 cardiac arrest with brain injury and so and i'll just finish by saying when covid came you know i was
00:27:17.140 like game on i mean i was 50 years old i'm a pulmonary critical care physician i saw pulmonary
00:27:21.620 critical care disease literally enveloping the world and i just i think innately just committed to learning
00:27:28.580 everything i could to figure out how to treat it and i had i had some giants around me i had paul
00:27:32.900 maric around me i had umberto maduri around you joe fron you know and jose iglesias that's kind of the
00:27:37.540 five icu docs that started our organization and all we did was read papers and the emails like preprint
00:27:43.780 servers and the papers that we're reading and then we're fashioning protocols we were learning stuff
00:27:48.100 that worked and what didn't and just it was this frenetic uh push and it's it's something that
00:27:54.820 they should have had they should have done that at the governmental level had like a group of
00:28:00.660 committed frontline clinicians have a seat at the table no clinician has ever been given the seat at
00:28:05.140 the table no real front line by clinician you mean a doctor who treats patients yes yeah that's what
00:28:09.940 i mean by client someone who is is literally immersed in patient care now you have people in those three
00:28:15.860 letter agencies who yes they'll see patients on the side most of the time in specialty offices they
00:28:20.900 they weren't deluged seeing like these acutely ill covered patients to the hundreds if not thousands
00:28:25.780 and i was seeing them not only at the most severe stages of the game and in the icu but also as an
00:28:30.260 outpatient and so i had a wealth of experience and insight into the disease and how to treat it
00:28:35.780 no one ever asked us and whenever i would try to bring out my uh insights uh it seemed to get attacked
00:28:40.820 so what did you think of the i mean for a while my impression is that the putting people in respirators
00:28:46.420 was part of the protocol well yeah you know it's that's true it's a little bit of a it's
00:28:51.700 definitely more nuanced than that but i would say this the push to put someone on ventilator they
00:28:57.380 probably did it too early as a rule early on i think a few things drove that it was ignorance of
00:29:02.100 the disease the trajectory of the disease i think there's a little bit of fear around controlling
00:29:06.820 infections so that definitely i think ventilators were overused um but that wasn't in my opinion the
00:29:12.980 main problem main problem was that we were not treating we were literally saying supportive
00:29:17.860 care only this is the first year where you know fluids for hydration uh nutrition oxygen tylenol for
00:29:25.460 fever that's what's called supportive care i could do that in my house yeah you could um but you know
00:29:31.220 that that seemed to be the the our response and like paul says you know my partner he says you know
00:29:36.820 there is no disease you cannot treat and there is really simple stuff that we knew that would help
00:29:41.860 fortify immune systems and help protect against severe disease that we thought that are super safe
00:29:47.380 that on a risk benefit precautionary principle we should have as a rule just recommended vitamin d for
00:29:53.700 one we should add a vitamin d uh you know supplementation campaign were nationwide would have been very easy
00:29:59.780 to do um now as an aside vitamin d has been one of the most attacked substances over the last three
00:30:07.220 or four decades uh by the form of siblings why it threatens it threatens the disease model i mean
00:30:15.780 we can make a we can do an hour on vitamin d tucker but um vitamin d like in milk yes like vitamin d like
00:30:21.940 it's vitamin d is a whole other discussion but they're terrified of vitamin d our normal
00:30:28.340 can i say if you find yourself terrified of vitamins you're probably on the wrong side
00:30:31.460 exactly you're probably on the wrong side there you go i think you got it but but yeah no it's
00:30:37.540 it's um it's you know i wrote a book called the war on ivermectin and and the the the genesis of
00:30:43.700 that book not only is my expertise on ivermectin and my vast clinical experience but and i told the story
00:30:50.500 before but i got an email um during this journey uh from a guy named william b grant he was a professor
00:30:57.220 out in california and he wrote to me this email just one day my life was going totally sideways
00:31:01.700 because our protocols focused on ivermectin i was using a lot in my practice as were tens of thousands
00:31:07.060 of doctors around the world to really good benefits and i was getting attacked there was hit jobs in
00:31:12.740 the media and he wrote me this email and he said dear dr corey what they're doing to ivermectin
00:31:18.740 they've been doing to vitamin d for decades and included a link to an article called the disinformation
00:31:24.100 playbook and it's got five tactics and these are the five tactics that all industries employ
00:31:30.980 when science emerges that's inconvenient to their interest so i'm just going to give you an example
00:31:36.180 ivermectin science was extremely inconvenient to the interest of the pharmaceutical industrial complex
00:31:42.660 i mean it threatened the vaccine campaign it threatened vaccine hesitancy which was public
00:31:47.300 enemy number one we know that that everything all the propaganda censorship was literally going
00:31:52.740 after something called vaccine hesitancy yes trying to experience vaccine hesitancy it's a terrible
00:31:59.060 condition or life-saving i'm so grateful for it it could be a life-saving condition but um they deployed
00:32:06.740 this information and i didn't understand what was going on tucker because when i for instance i gave
00:32:11.940 testimony um in a senate hearing for the first time in may of 2020 had nothing to do with ivermectin i
00:32:17.940 just said that it was critically important that corticosteroids be used in the hospital phase of the
00:32:22.420 disease i was attacked widely for saying that even by my own university they did not want me talking
00:32:27.620 to the press and that was based on the expert opinion of my group umberto maduri was one of them
00:32:32.980 like like i said one of the world experts in lung injury and corticosteroids myself and paul and we
00:32:39.060 were validated there because two months later a trial came out of oxford showing that huge mortality
00:32:44.580 reductions when you use corticosteroids and now it's the standard of care worldwide
00:32:49.060 six months later i go back now i'm an expert at an early treatment drug which is ivermectin
00:32:54.660 do the same testimony it goes viral on on a fox news website which was the most watched got up to
00:33:01.380 nine million views and then it was taken down in the middle of the night and this is before the
00:33:06.260 fraudulent trials which showed that it supposedly didn't work so they had no data to show it didn't
00:33:10.740 work all the data showed that it worked now they changed that equation using disinformation but
00:33:15.220 the point is i couldn't figure out like i gave that testimony the associated press did a hit job
00:33:21.700 on me within two days they sent the reporter i buried her with all this data all these trials
00:33:26.900 all these health ministries you know in south america and other places that were literally
00:33:30.900 obliterating covid and she wrote an article about how um it's another drug to be debunked like
00:33:38.180 hydroxychloroquine and then she even wrote about some couple who drank like a fish cleaner or something like
00:33:44.180 this was in an article interviewing me about ivermectin and it turned into this we actually
00:33:49.300 filed an ethics complaint this is how naive i was at the time this is almost two years ago but
00:33:53.620 or over two years ago we filed an ethics complaint with the associated press we were so disturbed by
00:33:58.180 this article um we didn't know that the fix was in but the point of that story is when he sent me the
00:34:04.100 article the link to that article i read it and it was like my mind exploded i suddenly saw the world
00:34:11.060 different because every tactic that they described i had a dozen examples of in relation to ivermectin
00:34:16.900 and even hydroxychloroquine and so i saw that myself and our organization were literally like the bad news
00:34:23.300 bears fighting like a war a disinformation global disinformation campaign trying to destroy early
00:34:30.180 effective treatment drugs in order to prop up this vaccine campaign craziness that's my life so but
00:34:36.660 i mean what you're really saying is that the drug companies applied pressure to the medical
00:34:40.740 establishment to withhold life-saving treatment so that people would have no option but the vaccine
00:34:48.020 differently i think all of it starts at the level of the medical journals um because once you have
00:34:53.460 something established in the medical journals as a let's say a proven fact or a generally accepted
00:34:59.220 consensus consensus comes out of the journals so that i think that's the core of the corruption
00:35:03.540 and what i in fact in my book i document very well in particular just using the example of ivermectin
00:35:09.540 does not have to be about ivermectin but i mean i have dozens of rejection letters from investigators
00:35:15.460 around the world who did good trials on ivermectin tried to publish it no thank you no thank you no thank
00:35:21.540 you and then the ones that do get in all purportedly prove that ivermectin didn't work
00:35:27.220 so and then when you look at the ones that actually got in and this is where like probably my biggest
00:35:33.540 estrangement and why i don't recognize science and don't trust it anymore is the trials that flew to
00:35:39.540 publication in the top journals in the world were so brazenly manipulated and corrupted into design and
00:35:45.220 conduct and many of us wrote about it um but they flew to publication and then every time they were
00:35:51.940 published you saw these huge pr campaigns in the media new york times boston globe la times
00:35:58.100 ivermectin doesn't work latest high quality rigorous study says i'm sitting here in my office watching
00:36:04.500 these lies just ripple throughout the media sphere based on fraudulent studies published in the top
00:36:10.580 journals and that's that's that has changed now that's why i say i'm estranged and i don't know what to trust
00:36:18.500 anymore tucker says it best their credit card companies are ripping americans off and enough
00:36:28.500 is enough this is senator roger marshall of kansas our legislation the credit card competition act
00:36:35.540 would help in the grip visa and mastercard have on us every time you use your credit card they charge
00:36:41.940 you a hidden fee called a swipe fee and they've been raising it without even telling you this hurts
00:36:47.620 consumers and every small business owner in fact american families are paying eleven hundred dollars
00:36:53.940 in hidden swipe fees each year the fees visa and mastercard charge americans are the highest in the
00:37:00.580 world double candidates and eight times more than europe's that's why i've taken action but i need your help
00:37:07.140 to help get this passed i'm asking you to call your senator today and demand they pass the credit card
00:37:14.100 competition act paid for by the merchants payments coalition not authorized by any candidate or
00:37:18.740 candidates committee www.merchantspaymentscoalition.com so we were in a meeting here at tcn the other day and
00:37:25.380 i looked around the room and every other person had a kind of ruddy vitality sort of pink cheeks alertness
00:37:34.420 bright eyes full mental acuity and a cheerfulness you could almost smell and i asked why does everyone look
00:37:43.220 so good and part of the answer of course is they like what we do for a living it's really interesting
00:37:48.660 we think it's important but another reason everyone looks so good is because they'd all had a great night
00:37:56.340 sleep i'm not making this up almost everybody here uses a new sleep technology from a company called
00:38:04.260 eight sleep they sent it to us and everyone here loves it it's called the pod it's a high-tech
00:38:10.900 mattress cover effectively that you add to your existing bed you don't need a new bed or anything
00:38:15.140 like that you just throw this over what you have what it does is it adjusts the temperature
00:38:21.300 of your bed warmer or cooler depending on what you want and it maintains an ideal sleeping environment
00:38:26.900 all night long so i didn't know this but as you progress through different phases of sleep your body's
00:38:32.580 needs change and eight sleep automatically keeps things exactly where they should be in the sweet spot
00:38:39.620 through the entire night it's been proven to increase the quality of your sleep the amount
00:38:45.460 you sleep every night it improves your recovery time from physical exertion and it may even improve
00:38:51.060 your cognitive performance and enhance enhance your overall health it seems to be doing that in our
00:38:56.900 office so it learns and adapts to your sleep patterns over time and automatically adjusts temperatures
00:39:02.180 throughout the night through each phase of sleep and it does this independently for each sleeper on
00:39:09.540 either side of the bed that's pretty cool so you can sleep well and feel much better and be more
00:39:16.500 effective the next morning as we are here try it for yourself go to eight sleep dot com slash tucker
00:39:23.540 use the promo code tucker to get an extra 350 bucks off the pod for ultra you can try it with zero obligation
00:39:30.900 for a month and if you don't like it just send it back again that's eight sleep dot com slash tucker
00:39:35.940 better sleep today and look great in your morning meetings as our guys do
00:39:42.180 you speak for so many but you speak from obviously a much deeper reservoir of knowledge when you say
00:39:49.780 that which makes it i lived it um is there hope for reform um at the medical journal level i don't know
00:40:00.740 i think that's a complex topic although i don't want to get political here but i did listen to an
00:40:05.700 interview with bobby kennedy and he he i i heard this i'd never forgot it because to me it spoke to
00:40:10.900 my heart but he said one of if he were to ever become president one of his first orders of business
00:40:16.180 would to call into the oval office the chief editors of all the top journals and tell them clean up your
00:40:22.740 act or i'm going after you with rico uh uh statute as a racketeering operation which is interesting
00:40:28.500 because the name of the chapter there's a chapter in my book called the editorial mafia and so when
00:40:34.260 i heard that bobby kennedy was going to bring these guys in the oval office and threaten them with rico
00:40:38.740 uh uh you know statute i was like oh he knows what he's doing he knows exactly what the problem is and
00:40:44.740 what to do about it yeah so but as far as reform you know going back to maybe this this this current
00:40:50.740 issue that you kind of invited me to talk about right which is which is this uh just unprecedented
00:40:55.940 excess mortality that we're observing not only in this country right i don't know if you follow but
00:41:01.060 the uk there's a couple of brave politicians they're trying to bring this uh issue to the
00:41:05.060 forefront uh australia canada a lot of the uh advanced health economies of the world are seeing really
00:41:11.460 large and unexplained excess mortalities even as covet has waned in severity um but in order to address
00:41:18.580 this i mean first of all this is the clearest indictment of our public health agencies which is
00:41:27.140 just their inaction the knowledge that this is occurring and they're not doing anything tells
00:41:31.700 you that they have failed it is the most clear evidence that they have failed and are failing
00:41:36.340 um if they were functioning this would be a major public health initiative there would be lots of
00:41:41.060 funding you'd have tons of studies looking at um causes and these studies are easy by the way because
00:41:46.420 they could do one thing that no one has done in advanced health economies which is give us open
00:41:51.380 source rigorous data of vaccination status and outcomes we want to know who's unvaccinated who's
00:41:56.740 vaccinated and how they're doing and they try to avoid doing that so that there are solutions to doing
00:42:02.340 it but i think you need people free of conflicts i think we need we need like industry to get involved
00:42:09.140 not just the academics and the agency folks um but like for instance get someone whose conflicts of
00:42:14.180 interest would promote study like this like the insurance industry they are looking into a
00:42:19.780 shellacking they are getting hammered look at how much they're paying out and you can see it in some
00:42:24.500 of the industry trade magazines they literally have never paid out this much money and and keep in mind
00:42:29.780 you pay out a policy on a 32 year old how much money have you lost compared to when you pay one out
00:42:36.420 exactly 58 and so so 70 and there there is a collaborative of insurance guys that i've worked
00:42:42.500 with and by the way i was on a call a year and a half ago i was invited to present data to a group
00:42:48.180 from a whole bunch of different life insurance companies almost all of them had their cameras off
00:42:53.380 and almost none said anything i would say about 30 people on the call only two people actually had
00:42:58.340 their cameras off and were asking detailed questions but they showed up and i found out from the guys who
00:43:03.700 organized it that many of them were like under the ceo it wasn't the ceo showing up but you know they
00:43:08.260 sent someone there to listen and so they're well aware of this and if you think about the insurance
00:43:13.060 industry right how much they've done to protect the health of the country again in their interest but
00:43:17.620 like automobile safety with seat belts fire codes electrical codes nautical building right all of those
00:43:23.860 things obviously it protects their business but it also protects our health and i would just like to see
00:43:29.940 maybe someone who's interested in finding out the answer why everyone's dying i mean i think that
00:43:36.100 industry wants to know that answer more than any other and they have the resources to do it but i think
00:43:41.620 government and other medical experts need to help and they need to be of a diverse spectrum and uh
00:43:47.300 transparent such a wise point so i just want to end by um hearing what you're seeing in your
00:43:55.380 clinical practice now with the vaccine injured and i think it's important that people hear it
00:44:01.140 because everybody knows somebody i know a couple of people um but it's sort of hard to know like
00:44:06.420 what are we looking at what are you seeing so how this is how i divide this is just kind of my
00:44:10.980 perception of vaccine injury is that when i use the term vaccine injury i'm usually referring to what
00:44:15.940 i call a single organ problem like pericarditis myocarditis stroke uh something like that an autoimmune
00:44:23.060 disease what i specialize in in my practice is i treat patients with what we call long covid long
00:44:29.540 vax it's the same disease just different triggers right one is triggered by covid the other one is
00:44:34.020 triggered by the spike protein from the vaccine much more common is long vax the only real differences
00:44:38.980 between the two conditions is that the vaccinated are on average sicker and more disabled than the long
00:44:45.140 covids with some pretty prominent exceptions to that um but the point i want to kind of give you uh
00:44:51.700 tucker is that the disease although it has a new name long covet it's not a new disease it's been
00:44:55.700 around for decades and it's traditionally been called myalgic encephalitis slash chronic fatigue
00:45:01.860 syndrome which me cfs you've heard of cfs yeah of course yeah that's effectively what long
00:45:06.900 covet and long vax is um because the hallmarks of that disease is a new inexorable fatigue what's
00:45:13.700 called post-exertional malaise which means when they try to do even simple activities yes they pay for
00:45:19.300 it in terms of fatigue they're innervated yeah they i mean they're like a classic example i give
00:45:23.780 one of my patients like he'd go to his mailbox to get the mail from the curb come back into his house
00:45:28.420 and he'd be in bed for two hours like that's classic post-exertional malaise and then the third is what
00:45:32.900 we call brain fog which is some amount of cognitive limitation but that triad that is me cfs and so and
00:45:40.580 that's always been associated with infections things like epstein-barr virus but the difference now
00:45:45.300 is the rate at which it occurs with coronavirus and this spike protein and this vaccine is so high
00:45:53.700 that like i said just me and my partner alone manage over 1200 patients and they're mostly disabled and
00:45:59.140 you're can because there was a some debate about whether chronic fatigue syndrome had psychiatric
00:46:04.420 origins or physical origins yeah i think that's always been a debate and that's always been a problem
00:46:09.140 for that disease that's why there's very little to show for it in terms of great studies about the only
00:46:14.180 thing they know about how to approach that disease is you tell patients to pace themselves to stay under
00:46:18.500 that exertional limit that makes them sicker and pacing is a good part of what we do but um we've
00:46:23.300 learned lots of different therapies but what makes our um kind of plight easier is that we're learning so
00:46:30.820 much about the pathophysiology of the spike protein and what it does to the body and all of the disturbances
00:46:36.500 that it causes that because we know it's the spike causing it here so i don't have to worry that it's
00:46:40.900 some psychiatric illness or depression or something in the environment like i know what it is it's the
00:46:44.900 spike protein i'm learning a lot about the spike protein what it does to the body and then we we
00:46:49.700 choose um medicines whose pharmacologic mechanism of action best counteract those disturbances in
00:46:56.420 pathophysiology and we've we have a lot of success but i will tell you nothing works in everybody um
00:47:03.140 it's really a trial and error system um we use our our most frequently effective medicines first and
00:47:08.900 then i have i have second third fourth fifth length and i have things where like i'm trialing new
00:47:13.780 things you have to do it the patients are suffering immeasurably and um and so they're they're tired
00:47:19.700 and tired out of foggy um can't do very much many of them are housebound so some start bedbound some are
00:47:26.900 housebound some can go out for short excursions um but most of them are nowhere near living the life
00:47:34.900 they used to so what happens to their relationships you know that's a good question i haven't seen i
00:47:40.820 to be honest that's a cool question because i've thought about that myself i've seen some decimated
00:47:46.900 people and by and large i can't take one example their partners have stayed with them their partners
00:47:51.940 have supported them i've seen a lot of love and devotion it at least in my patient population that um
00:47:58.980 i kind of wonder when that's going to be when some partner is going to say you're not who i married i'm
00:48:03.700 not happy and and leave them in the illness which is what you're not supposed to do in you know in
00:48:08.260 the marriage but but i haven't seen that very much but clearly their their relationships are affected
00:48:14.500 the partner also suffers the partner can't go out to dinner with them they can't go see a ball game
00:48:18.420 they can't go on the trips they used to go on and and so they're all leading different lives but i've
00:48:22.980 seen a lot of partner support and commitment i mean if you knew that your life had been completely
00:48:30.020 destroyed you couldn't work you couldn't even go out to dinner because you were forced to take a
00:48:34.180 vaccine and no one ever apologized or you know stood up to help you how angry would you be the amount of
00:48:42.420 anger um is it's incalculable i the the patients that i see they are equal parts angry i think wrongly
00:48:53.940 they feel ashamed because they were duped you know they did something many of them were actually
00:48:58.900 kind of reluctant because that those are the worst they really didn't want to they pushed back a little
00:49:03.620 tried not to and then finally succumb because their livelihood was on the on the line and then they
00:49:09.140 got injured and those are the ones who kicked them so there's a lot of regret shame anger and then some
00:49:15.220 of them there's also a lot of you know they're injured they're sick but they're active in vaccine
00:49:20.340 injury groups they try to share their experiences with things that have helped them they advocate
00:49:24.580 they reach out to their politicians trying to bring this more to to common knowledge and and so um but
00:49:31.060 they have no power there's nothing they can do right they can't sue pfizer nope not yet so i know someone
00:49:38.420 i have a close friend who was forced to take the vaccine and has been sick ever since two and a half years
00:49:44.260 all the time covid repeatedly and all kinds of every flu is that i mean i'm assuming that that's part
00:49:50.660 of what can happen my patients it's not so much the immunosuppression it's it's really that cfs
00:49:56.020 component that i see the chronic daily symptoms so it's the triad that i talked about which is
00:50:01.220 fatigue post-exertion malaise brain fog and then next on the list is neuropathies so sensory neuropathy
00:50:06.980 is just such high rates so burning tingling pins and needles and odd distributions odd times
00:50:14.020 a day different severities many people are burning or numb or they feel pain what is that that's it's
00:50:20.420 what's called a small fiber neuropathy so it's the tiny nerve endings that infiltrate our skin
00:50:25.540 and they're all they got inflamed or damaged i think some of it's probably autoimmune some of it's
00:50:30.820 probably from micro circulatory problems something called micro clotting i don't want to get too
00:50:35.780 sciencey if you don't want me to uh tucker but uh it's small fiber neuropathy is very high rates
00:50:41.380 and then equally incident is something called dysautonomia or pots where uh resting heart
00:50:47.780 rates are much are like 110 where like you have these fit people who are exercising that they
00:50:52.580 enjoy their resting heart rate of a 60 right when those are so fit when we have those now they're
00:50:57.220 sitting in a chair that's 95 100 they go walk to the bathroom it's 140 or they get up suddenly their
00:51:03.060 blood pressure drops and it's basically the small nerve fibers that control um constriction of blood vessels
00:51:09.140 and the control our heart rates are all off and so when you try to do some activity and your blood
00:51:15.220 pressure is not appropriate for the activity the heart rate's not appropriate activity good luck doing
00:51:19.220 that activity and that's another thing that drives a stroke risk um not well yeah if it's severe enough
00:51:26.580 it could be but uh no generally the strokes not what causes that but a lot of dysfunction a lot of fatigue
00:51:32.900 um and then a whole bunch of other stuff i have skin manifestations different gi things is the other
00:51:40.500 thing remember a lot of our gi system is autonomic as well right peristalsis gastric emptying you don't
00:51:46.100 think about that that's all supposed to be under the control of the body and now the small fibers aren't
00:51:51.860 telling you to propel the the food down your intestine or to empty the stomach and so many of
00:51:57.380 them have lots of food intolerances it ramps up allergies i see patients who could tolerate every
00:52:02.820 food and everything then they after the vaccine suddenly complain of immense amount of allergies to
00:52:08.580 things um i could go an hour with what i see it's so broad so vast um it it's it's really it's an immensely
00:52:17.780 complex disease um i will say most of the time it's satisfying the tree because i i would say the vast
00:52:24.900 majority if not all of our patients get better to some extent um the problem is it's the minority
00:52:31.220 that we get to full get back to baseline a distinct small minority the vast majority
00:52:37.380 modest to large improvements and then i have a cohort which i really even after a year now i'm
00:52:42.820 having difficulty helping appreciably i mean at what point does this end um
00:52:47.700 um well if you look back at papers on me cfs uh they say that in their lifetime only five percent
00:52:58.660 ever get back to baseline and so for most with the chronic form that i see um it's accepting a new life
00:53:08.260 and set level of functioning for people who are watching this and want to learn more about what you're
00:53:15.220 doing and more information on this i feel like they might fall into these categories where would
00:53:19.380 they go so first is uh my organization so flcc.net we have protocols so we have uh sort of recommendations
00:53:27.940 of things that we find are helpful for treating vaccine long covet or long vax we also have it on
00:53:33.380 treatment of various other infectious illnesses we even have a monograph on re perfect drug for
00:53:38.420 cancer that my partner just worked on over this past year and so we have a lot of unbiased
00:53:43.060 un-conflicted medical information that's come out of deep study or clinical experience and
00:53:48.020 i think that's a first step and then obviously i have a private practice i couldn't treat the country
00:53:52.500 but uh we we certainly see patients in all 50 states and um we do what we can and that's drpierre
00:53:58.340 cory.com but that's really what we focus on is is these two diseases it would take me 10 years
00:54:04.660 uh and even in 10 years i don't think i'd have all the answers but but we're learning every day and
00:54:09.140 we're getting better at what we do every day dr pierre cory thank you very much thanks tucker
