The perfect example of how big Pharm works is narcotic pain killers.

They were originally developed for end of life issues like late stage cancer. But the suits in the big pharma companies believed they could make a lot more money if they could get doctors to use it as a general pain killer.

They told doctors that narcotics were safe and not a risk for addiction. Of course doctors believed what they were told and we end up with a huge addiction to narcotics problem in the US.

Why is it important to know how things work? It explains the push to vaccinate people who so not really need vaccinations. It also explains the need for the booster shots.

Follow the money. Big Pharm is making billions on this covid vax.

I'm not a fan of big Pharma either, and yes, their padding their pocketbooks on the covid vax, but what's the alternative? Sit on our hands and watch people die? Big Pharm is also making making $$ on shots for polio, smallpox, and other deadly diseases, but what's the alternative? Sit on our hands and watch people die? If you were lying in a hospital bed, fighting for your life, you wouldn't be so concerned about corporate spreadsheets.

What is the alternative? If you are healthy and under the age of 65, make sure your vitamin D levels are at least 50 ng/ml, eat healthy foods like veggies and get some exercise.

Chances are if you get COVID you will be just fine.

Doctors did not believe the drugs weren’t addictive.
Don’t so such a bloody retard.

Doctors were enticed to push the drugs by being paid to do so.
And without a proper body controlling the mechanism of unbridled lobbying, this is what you get. Capitalism at its best.

Tell that to the 610,000 dead Americans, many of whom followed your advise. There are something's you can't fight off with just veggies and exercise.

80 percent of those people were 65 or older. If they had high enough vitamin D levels that number would have been cut in half.

As I already showed, there is no scientific basis for that claim:

""Given the results of Neale’s large-scale study and the modest benefits found in Martineau’s latest meta-analysis, it seems unlikely that vitamin D will prove to be a critical ingredient in fending off COVID-19 or modulating its severity. "

Yet, you keep making it.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33260798/

Evidence from observational studies is accumulating, suggesting that the majority of deaths due to SARS-CoV-2 infections are statistically attributable to vitamin D insufficiency and could potentially be prevented by vitamin D supplementation


As for your study, do they measure vitamin D levels in a person's body?

Results: The electronic and supplementary searches for this review yielded 318 records from which, only 14 of them met the inclusion criteria. The qualitative synthesis indicated that vitamin D deficient individuals were at higher risk of COVID-19 infection as compared to vitamin D sufficient patients. The pooled analysis showed that individuals with Vitamin-D deficiency were 80% more likely to acquire COVID-19 infection as compared to those who have sufficient Vitamin D levels (OR = 1.80; 95%CI: 1.72, 1.88).

You are so full of shyte it isn't funny. You are a pathetic imitation of a real human, just like your god king Trump.

We KNOW big Pharm rakes in billions and BTW they are in deep doo over the oxy scandal.
That doesn't excuse you from dissing the whole industry.
If it wasn't for the vaccine, what we see in Missouri would be still happening in the rest of the US, but of COURSE you could care less about pesky details like how 90% of the cases now are with UNVACCINATED people.
But you could care less about THAT either.

Like I said, imitation of a human being and a poor copy at that. You should sue your gene bank.

It is for blatant misinformation like this that is why you've been ostracized in this forum.

Stop watching Tucker Carlson on Fox and reading Joseph Mercola on Facebook.

Allow HCQ to be approved for early treatment of covid. HCQ is safer than Tylenol.

Fire Fauci for lying about HCQ. By denying HCQ to the public Fauci killed people. He is a murderer and should be in prison. He allowed people to die for financial gain.

They likely got enough vitamin D from all the tanning they did in their youth and retirement. Well before tanning was found out to be potentially deadly.🤔

Joseph Mercola is one of the few people telling the truth.
I dare you to attempt to prove him wrong. You cannot do it. All you can do is troll.
