Should FDA’s User Fees Be on the Chopping Block?

Should FDA’s User Fees Be on the Chopping Block?

Comments 1 comment

One of the many exciting things that RFK Jr brings to the table is his promise to root out corruption and agency capture. The biggest cause of capture is the revolving door between government and the drug companies. People work for the government and then go back to industry and influence their former subordinates and co-workers, sometimes via the lobby crowd. This has been discussed for decades and there are rules in place. RFK Jr. will strengthen and tighten these…

Fairly Significant (but not unexpected) update on the Cali Covid Misinformation Wars, But We’re Still Waiting for the Big Enchilada!

Fairly Significant (but not unexpected) update on the Cali Covid Misinformation Wars, But We’re Still Waiting for the Big Enchilada!

Yesterday we had the hearings in the Hoang and Hoeg cases, that being the attorney general’s motion to dismiss both cases on mootness grounds. You will recall that on February 29th, the Ninth Circuit decided that the other two AB 2098 cases were moot and order the district court to dismiss the two cases and also the vacate their decisions, and really just means Judge Slaughter’s ridiculous and pretty ignorant decision indicating that AB 2098 was constitutional. And that was…

To people supporting the use of Ivermectin and other off-label drugs for Covid, arguably the most galling thing about the mainstream Covid mafia’s PR campaign against Ivermectin was the false and outrageous moniker of it being horse paste. It is false becasue as everyone in the Covid mafia knows, Ivermectin is approved for use in humans. The FDA and promoters of this false moniker obviously intentionally omitted this fact which makes it a bald-face lie. It is outrageous because in…

The FDA’s Nod to Ivermectin is not an “All’s Clear” for Prescribing it for Covid

The FDA’s Nod to Ivermectin is not an “All’s Clear” for Prescribing it for Covid

Many of you tuned into the recent oral argument in the physicians’ lawsuit against the FDA. The bone of contention? Alleged interference with the practice of medicine due to the FDA’s statements (and tweets) against using Ivermectin for Covid. And who could miss that provocative and heartening recent headline in Epoch Times: “Doctors Can Prescribe Ivermectin for COVID-19: FDA Lawyer”? If you missed it, catch up here: https://www.theepochtimes.com/article/doctors-can-prescribe-ivermectin-for-covid-19-fda-5456584. Now, to all the doctors who’ve been rubbing their hands in glee,…

Where are the CDC and Medicare Whistleblowers?

Where are the CDC and Medicare Whistleblowers?

Comments 2 comments

Whistleblowers and smoking guns are the holy grails in impact litigation. They rarely surface, but when they do, they can make a case. I am sort of surprised that there haven’t been more of them since the pandemic. I’ve heard about and interacted with or about a couple of them, but I haven’t found the real deal yet, i.e., someone with current, non-stale compelling information. I have some contacts in Congress. Now that the Republicans are back controlling one house,…

(Man with shades outside Sacramento Federal Courthouse after oral argument in the challenges to AB 2098) We had the hearing on our challenge (and the companion challenge filed by a high-profile Washington D.C. public interest group) yesterday afternoon. It was a very lively event. And because it was me, there were many lighter moments and even some robust laughter with some back-and-forth banter between us and the judge. Not so much with the Attorney General and the judge. And that…

California Physician Alert: Be Very Careful About What you Say About Covid to New/Prospective Patients

California Physician Alert: Be Very Careful About What you Say About Covid to New/Prospective Patients

Comments 3 comments

As you all know, AB 2098 is, for now, the law of the land in California. Hopefully it won’t be after our preliminary injunction hearing on Monday. I think all physicians should assume that the Cali boards (medical and osteopathic) will try to enforce the law. But there is problem: How are they going to find out who is spreading “Covid misinformation” to their patient? My guess or assumption is that current patients aren’t going to be the ones complaining….

Here is the link to the legal update on CHD’s and PIC’s lawsuit against AB 2098. https://live.childrenshealthdefense.org/chd-tv/shows/good-morning-chd/chd-federal-lawsuit-over-ca-covid-misinformation-bill/ There is an excellent discussion by Dr. Sanjay Verma explaining how often the public health authorities got it wrong during Covid and the lack of science behind the public health decisions we all have been living with for the past three years. And I always have a good time when FG&J get together (Ray Flores, Greg Glaser, and yours truly). (Hopefully, they edited…
