Pharma and Media Losing Sleep over New Health Regulations
Since taking the office of the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has disappointed and angered people on both sides of the political divide. Under his leadership, US federal agencies have continued to allow useless and dangerous vaccines – notably the COVID-19 shots – as well as approved and fast-tracked new mRNA vaccines, thus raising concerns among many conservatives and libertarians.
The left already hates RFK Jr. because he walked away from the Democratic Party, though even as a Democrat, he continued to inform people of the real science that doesn’t support the “safe and effective vaccine” narrative, which is predominantly furthered by the left. At the same time, RFK Jr. being a Trump pick automatically puts him in the crosshairs of liberal antagonism.
However, RFK Jr. is now working on a measure that has bipartisan support but can deliver a blow to big pharma as well as mainstream media companies. The Detroit News (June 17) called it Kennedy’s planned crackdown on the advertisement business of pharma. As the story put it, the Trump admin is discussing two policies that could hurt pharma’s advertising business: first, requiring pharma ads to include detailed side/adverse effects of the product (drug) featured in the ad; and secondly no more allowing pharma to write off its direct-to-consumer advertising costs as business expense for tax purposes.
Both policies under discussion would hit pharma from different angles but at the same weak spot – its pockets of profit. To include details of the side effects, and not just the common ones that most pharma ads mention in passing, would not only make the ads lengthier and thus costlier to produce but also make the audience more aware of the risks associated with the mediation and thus less likely to buy it. Removing their ability to write off ad costs as business expense would make pharma pay higher taxes, unless they choose to reduce their ad space in media, meaning less exposure and eventually fewer purchases.
And big pharma is not the only industry worried about the potential blow about to be dealt with these federal requirements; corporate media is also feeling the implications as ants in its pants. On Wednesday (June 18), the radical leftist CNN published a story expressing the concern that RFK Jr.’s crackdown on drug ads could cripple some broadcasters. Mentioning the $5 billion spent on TV ads by big pharma last year, CNN wrote:
Drug ads, which are illegal in most countries, have been a hallmark of US television since the 1980s. By raising the bar on pharmaceutical ads, the Trump administration threatens a crucial revenue source for broadcasters.
Independent journalist and commentator Maria Zee asked on her X profile “The Vigilant Fox” whether this could be the end of pharma’s propaganda empire. Maria posted her video commentary, reminding that the United States and New Zealand are the only two countries in the developed world that allow pharma such unbridled direct-to-consumer advertisement of drugs.
The Trump administration is also working on sweeping changes to the federal healthcare policy, specifically cutting out healthcare benefits extended to illegal aliens under the Obama and Biden administrations.
Editor: The author’s story is a lie that could harm Americans. Shame on you.
“US federal agencies have continued to allow useless and dangerous vaccines – notably the COVID-19 shots – as well as approved and fast-tracked new mRNA vaccines, thus raising concerns among many conservatives and libertarians.” Vaccines, in general, are some of the safest medicines, AND safest products ever generalized in the USofA. Wood is more dangerous. Science, statistics, and medicine prove that. The Dumpster alleges not. He lies and is a liar. The publisher is knowingly printing this.
The covid vaccine is safe and is responsible for saving over 14 million lives in one year according to Trump’s NIH. Look it up, RFK has not erased the data…. yet. The author lies to the point of potentially hurting you, even killing you, IF you listen.
Trump’s response to covid is estimated to have murdered hundreds of thousands. You won’t find that in The Dumpster’s lies. According to Scientific American: “In the final year of Donald Trump’s presidency, more than 450,000 Americans died from COVID-19, and life expectancy fell by 1.13 years, the biggest decrease since World War II. Many of the deaths were avoidable; COVID-19 mortality in the U.S. was 40 percent higher than the average of the other wealthy nations in the Group of Seven (G7).” *https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/trumps-policy-failures-have-exacted-a-heavy-toll-on-public-health1/* It’s a chilling read. The Dumpster wants you to ignore all of that.
Remember, these are the guys who told you the reason we have so many more positive cases is that we test too much. As in, if you don’t test for it, you don’t have it. Death is a little more conclusive.
Research our covid deaths against other countries and you will be blown away by how bad the Trump response was and, remember, this is the guy who hired the nutjob RFK. I use WIKI and search “covid deaths by country.” There we come in at 222 out of 238 countries. No matter how you dispute the numbers, the apples n oranges of it, it’s pretty hard to dispute that the US response under Trump, the guy who hired RFK: SUCKED. Sucked dog dicks in hell sucked. Then, use your math to say: “who would be saved if we came in at number 100 out of 238. Or within the top 10 if you dare to say we could be the best. I mean we did have the vaccine, and a lot of it, very early. The only way is if people stay away which is what The Dumpster and RFK want. The end result is where RFK is sending you and The Dumpster is only too happy to have you go. Hell is for Americans says The Dumpster.
But wait — there’s more. The Dumpster wants you to stop taking vaccines. RFK hates vaccines. As measles rages under his reign at levels not seen for 25 years, he does little to tell people the simple TRUTH: “if you get the vaccine, the outbreaks are over in a couple of weeks.” We have 23 outbreaks right now, luckily only three dead and deaths have been contained once the outbreak was known. RFK is poorly managing this doing little for the highest US outbreak in over 25 years. According to RFK’s CDC, 12% of the cases result in hospitalization and 97% were un- or under-vaccinated. Only 3% were fully vaccinated. The vaccine works, is safe, has been used for over 60 years. It is not useless, it is not dangerous, The Dumpster, on the other hand, IS less than useless, he’s DANGEROUS. He’s physically dangerous to you and all of America.
Are vaccines safe: again, according to the Trump NIH: “One of the brightest chapters in the history of science is the impact of vaccines on human longevity and health. Over 300 y have elapsed since the first vaccine was discovered. In a short article, it is not possible to do justice to a subject that encompasses immunology, molecular biology, and public health, but several more extensive sources are available to the interested reader (1–5). Rather than attempting a chronological narrative, I will consider vaccine development from the viewpoint of the technologies used to create vaccines.” *https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4151719/*
Again, search vaccine safety and efficacy to see how stupid listening to The Dumpster is. He lies, he has an agenda, and his agenda is not good for America. He is Joe’s DEI hire.
I am Frank. I am Danger. And Ernest is not earnest. And no Pakistani was ever named Dempsey unless he is hiding something.
