Why the AMA’s actions are raising alarms Something is breaking inside of American medicine.

it gets worse.

Dr. Oz recently visited the AMA to threaten doctors to get in line, and the AMA supported it by silencing its members. This should be a national news story.

“I don’t want to start this article by saying that the sky is falling, but…”

Y’all. The sky is falling. Read.

How MAGA Used Problematic Research From Brazil To Push False Covid Cures When research didn’t support Trump’s pandemic “game changer” claims in 2020, his administration went to Brazil. Today, Trump’s “gold standard” anti-science HHS mirrors Bolsonaro's.

Today @americansunlight.org published a report we've been working on all fall, detailing the worrisome connections and quack science in the MAHA movement, the Bolsonaro health ministry's failed COVID policies and President Trump's "gold standard" HHS: americansunlight.substack.com/p/how-maga-u...

I used it for intubation and cardioversion regularly until I got to Canada where it simply does not exist.

Rise of anti-science rhetoric has fundamentally changed the relationship between doctors and patients “The rise of anti-science and anti-vaccine rhetoric has fundamentally changed the relationship between clinicians and patients.”

Disturbing details about Dr. Harvey Risch, whose anti-vax bibliography was cited by Kennedy’s HHS and who is still somehow at Yale.

This is an incredible story.

Good governance too.

Canada Finally Changed Course. Now It Must Finish the Job. As the United States hands its healthcare system to anti-vaxxers and disinformation doctors, Canada has started to move in the opposite direction — and must keep going if it wants to avoid the same.

“You cannot protect patients in a system where the people claiming that “vaccines kill children” and “vaccines cause autism” are now controlling the very institutions responsible for national vaccine policy and scientific oversight.”

New essay:
Canada is beginning to change course, but if it hesitates now, it risks spiraling into the same breakdown of medicine, truth, and democratic stability that the United States is living through in real time.

Paddlin' the school canoe? Oh, you better believe that's a paddlin'

Remember when our medical establishment faked a concern about routine vaccines to dunk on the covid vaccine?

Bad faith disingenuous performance, all the way down.

I could not be more explicit about this active and ongoing threat to Canadian democracy from one of the most unlikely places. #MedCan #MedSky

Hi. State Medical Boards are worse than useless. It doesn’t matter if Hoeg is licensed or not. Nothing matters in that world of “self-regulation” and review of the historical record shows it basically never did.

This happens in every hospital in every state in America. Until Americans stop treating these as aberrations, and only take interest when it happens to (gasp!) them, it will continue to happen in every hospital in every state in America.

We should talk.

This harebrained new scheme poses a major threat to Medicare | Opinion It places greater financial burden on children, seniors and the poor by delaying or denying claims necessary for preventive care. | Opinion

They said they would reduce prior auth...by making more prior auth👇🏻

This new threat to Medicare, aka the Wasteful and Inappropriate Service Reduction Model (WISeR), is a pilot program instigated by a political appointee, Dr. Mehmet Oz that requires prior authorization.

It’s true. It’s regulatory capture across the board + a wealth gap America has not seen since the Great Depression.

Canada’s doctor shortage is no accident It was policy.

It’s both, because of federal health transfers. But providences couldn’t be more different & deserve our attention @mark-carney.bsky.social.
N American healthcare is at an inflection point and each province is responding in its own way.
Alberta is the worst.
Quebec is very bad.
BC is innovating.

Did you see what Dr. Oz said to the AMA’s entire House of Delegates?
Sid you see what the AMA said?

Academic medicine is a sclerotic institution led by old guard doctors who need to retire.

The failure is everywhere. It’s staggering.

Keep beating Poilievre he lacks the basic decency required to lead the Canadian people. Also please help us, the hospitals are in trouble.
Thank you. 🇨🇦

“A massive crisis”

The Anti-Vaccine Movement Supports Big Pharma It's common knowledge that anti-vaxxers are dedicated to filling the coffers of Big Coffin.  Simple math leads to another obvious conclusion: they also work extremely hard to enrich hospitals and Big
