The Right to Lie in Public Health and its Implications for Pharmaceutical Companies
1:18:50 - 1:30:27 (11:37)
This podcast discusses the self-assigned right to lie in public health, related to successful vaccination cases, and how this serves the interests of pharmaceutical companies that have emergency use authorizations, require that there not be safe and effective treatment, and have immunity from liability. It also raises concerns about immunizing pharmaceutical companies from the harm of their own product while allowing them to exist in the market if some other product that works better fails to be noticed.
