NYT Reports on Doctors' Conflicts of Interest But Vaccines Are Always Exempt
Note: Pharma funds studies. Doctor participate in the studies. Journals publish the studies. Medical schools teach the studies. New doctors believe the studies. Ad nauseam.
The disconnect continues. Readers who fully understand that a doctor with a vested financial interest might skew a study to his or her benefit regarding a drug or medical device are told this never, ever happens in medical journals regarding vaccination. It's patently absurd thinking. The truth is, money talks, safety walks. Profits before patients. Often. You can't read the entire article because of the paywall unless you are a subscriber. We are not NYT subscribers. Over the years, they have shown little interest in reporting the truth about autism and vaccine injury. The one "exemption" they approve of, apparently. Yes, the photo is through the looking glass....

What These Medical Journals Don’t Reveal: Top Doctors’ Ties to Industry
This article was reported and written in collaboration with ProPublica, the nonprofit journalism organization.
One is dean of Yale’s medical school. Another is the director of a cancer center in Texas. A third is the next president of the most prominent society of cancer doctors.
These leading medical figures are among dozens of doctors who have failed in recent years to report their financial relationships with pharmaceutical and health care companies when their studies are published in medical journals, according to a review by The New York Times and ProPublica and data from other recent research.
Dr. Howard A. “Skip” Burris III, the president-elect of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, for instance, declared that he had no conflicts of interest in more than 50 journal articles in recent years, including in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine.

This ProPublica article published in February 2017 is also interesting:
When Evidence Says No, But Doctors Say Yes: https://www.propublica.org/article/when-evidence-says-no-but-doctors-say-yes
Has some standard vaccination rhetoric, critical analysis of vaccination remains off-limits apart from an aside about polio vaccination, but it's still a worthwhile read.

We have allowed Deadly chemicals that are shot into people to become exempt from the damaging effects. Chemicals such as Aluminum, Thimerosal/Mercury, cancer promoting Formaldehyde polysorbate and other poisons are actually exempt from the harm it creates via the medical journals, university researchers, doctors and the pharma industry. The problem is that it causes all illnesses from cancer to autism. 54% (it is said of our children-soon to be adults) are now chronically ill. I have learned that you can not say vaccines to folks. Their brains automatically shift into thinking that vaccines are good and have somehow saved us and then shut down..Perhaps it is because people are full of Monkey Cells?

"Note: Pharma funds studies. Doctor participate in the studies. Journals publish the studies. Medical schools teach the studies. New doctors believe the studies. Ad nauseam"
Forgive me for re-posting the following "Psychology 101 - Behavior Experiment" .. but .. in my opinion it more or less EXPLAINS why pharma, doctors, journals, medical schools … act the way they do .. it is because .. THEY HAVE BEEN TAUGHT TO DO SO.
Psychology 101 - Behavior Experiment
You start with a cage containing four monkeys, and inside the cage you hang
a banana on a string, and then you place a set of stairs under the banana.
Before long a monkey will go to the stairs and climb toward the banana. You
then spray ALL the monkeys with cold water.
After a while, another monkey makes an attempt. As soon as he touches the
stairs, you spray ALL the monkeys with cold water. Pretty soon, when
another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to
prevent it.
Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it
with a new monkey.
The new monkey sees the banana and attempts to climb the stairs. To his
shock, ALL of the other monkeys beat the crap out of him. After another
attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs he will
be assaulted.
Next, remove another of the original four monkeys, replacing it with a new
monkey. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous
newcomer takes part in the punishment - with enthusiasm -- because he is
now part of the "team."
Then, replace a third original monkey with a new monkey, followed by the
fourth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked.
Now, the monkeys that are beating him up have no idea why they were not
permitted to climb the stairs. Neither do they know why they are
participating in the beating of the newest monkey. Having replaced all of
the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys will have ever been
sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, not one of the monkeys will try to
climb the stairway for the banana.
Why, you ask? Because in their minds, that is the way it has always been!
That is WHY today's PHARMA, DOCTORS, MEDICAL JOURNALS, MEDICAL SCHOOLS
.. because … IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THAT WAY.
It will require a complete "draining of the swam" .. where ALL of the monkeys are REPLACED AT THE SAME TIME!
DISCLAIMER: This is meant as no disrespect to monkeys.
