Literally Thousands of Doctors and Scientists Have Come Out Against Fauci’s Lockdowns Including a Nobel Prize-Winning Biophysicist. The Media Just Doesn’t Want You to Know As RedState’s very own Sister Toldjah reported earlier today, the doubts President Trump recently expressed about the wisdom of Dr. Fauci’s advice on COVID-19 have elicited a chorus of smug accusation from the usual suspects that he’s “ignoring the experts.” Sister Toldjah pointed out that it’s hard to know what their complaint even means given how often Fauci and other media-anointed authorities have done total 180s. But, even putting aside how their advice seems to change with the political winds, the idea that there’s some scientific consensus in favor of the extreme measures inflicted on us in response to COVID-19 couldn’t be further from the truth. Though you don’t hear their perspectives on CNN, countless scientists and doctors have tried to warn us not only that COVID-19 isn’t nearly as deadly as we’ve been led to believe; they’re also confident that the real threat to public health we’re facing is from the lockdowns. For example, though the establishment media has somehow failed to make it widely known, in May, over 600 physicians from “all specialties and from all states” signed a public letter to President Trump describing, not COVID-19, but the lockdowns as a “mass casualty incident.” Since the letter first appeared, the number of doctors signing on has grown into the thousands. Their letter warns:
Similarly, way back in April, two California emergency room physicians gave a press conference in which they rejected basically every single premise used to justify the lockdowns. Moreover, unlike Fauci, they actually gave detailed explanations of the reasons behind what they were saying rather than demanding blind obedience. Dr. Dan Erickson and Dr. Artin Massihi presented data from all across the world, indicating that Fauci’s response to COVID-19 was entirely out of proportion with the threat it posed. They also explained that isolating healthy people is an unheard-of response that violates the basic tenets of both microbiology and immunology. And, like the thousands of doctors who signed that letter to the president, they described in painful detail the disastrous public health consequences working emergency room physicians on the front lines are seeing every day as a result of these lockdowns.
In a sign of how much our elites really care about following the science, Youtube banned the video of Dr. Erickson and Dr. Massihi’s press conference even though it not only featured medical experts fully explaining the science behind their conclusions; a local News channel also posted it. Fortunately, the video is still available on other platforms that don’t censor views contradicting the mainstream media’s official narratives.
Some local news outlets have also acted like journalists instead of gatekeepers and given the public a chance to hear Dr. Erickson’s take. But Youtube also censored Laura Ingraham when she interviewed Doctors Erickson and Massihi on Fox News: https://twitter.com/qlactaka/status/1255134973918498816 [Twitter has now suspended this account…funny, that.] Nor are Erickson and Massihi by any means the only physicians who’ve tried to warn us that the lockdowns Fauci’s pushed have nothing to do with “following the science.” Some have even thus far managed to avoid YouTube censorship. As Powerline’s John Hinderaker wrote back in April in a post linking to Drs. Erickson and Massihi’s now censored Youtube video:
Dissent from Fauscism, however, is by no means restricted to working physicians. Eminent scientists with more theoretical backgrounds have also tried to get the word out that the prescriptions Fauci’s pushed on us, far from “following the science,” are, in reality, the worst sort of pseudoscientific quack medicine. John P. A. Ioannidis is a professor of medicine at Stanford University and both a professor of epidemiology and population health. When these lockdowns first started kicking in, Dr. Ioannidis published an op-ed titled: Again in sharp contrast to Fauci, Dr. Ionnidis broke down his reasons for thinking the threat of COVID-19 was dangerously exaggerated. Since then, Dr. Ioannidis has researched the prevalence of the COVID-19 virus, which indicates that its fatality rate is likely comparable to the flu’s Media airheads like CNN’s S.E. Cupp excoriated President Trump for ignoring the science when he criticized Fauci. Meanwhile, in the real world, Nobel Prize-winning biophysicist Michael Levitt has been hammering away at how idiotic this lockdown is in terms that make the president’s remarks seem mild: Apparently, S. E. Cupp doesn’t think Nobel Prize-winning biophysicists know anything about science. Likewise, for Oxford University’s Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine. They’ve been presenting cold hard data since the day these lockdowns began showing that Fauci‘s testimony to congress that COVID-19 is “at least ten times more lethal than the flu” had no basis in scientific reality. Former chief of neuroradiology at Stanford University Medical Center, Dr. Scott W. Atlas, warned us way back in April that, Fauci’s lockdown, rather than being based on science, contradicted the “empirical evidence” as well as the “fundamental principles of biology established for decades.” According to Dr. Atlas’s expert opinion:
I could go on listing working physicians and distinguished scientists who are opposed to Fauci’s lockdown all day. And, like those already listed above but unlike Fauci, the reasons for their opinions would be clearly explained, and their assessments wouldn’t change with the shifting political winds. But there’s a more general point that’s crucial here. S. E Cupp, Pete Buttigieg, and all the others who defend Fauci by chanting “follow the science” don’t have a clue what they’re talking about. Nothing could be less scientific than blindly following the word of some alleged authority and trying to bully everyone else into doing so by mindlessly regurgitating some idiotic catchphrase. Science is about believing things for a reason, not because some media-anointed expert insists on them. Science is also about research. And if Cupp, Buttigieg, and the rest had the slightest interest in discovering whether our response to COVID-19 was justified, they would have spent a half-hour doing some and found any number of prominent scientists and working physicians who believe these lockdowns have violated the basic tenets of science and altogether reject Fauci’s scaremongering about COVID-19. In fact, one scientist whose opinion both Cupp and Buttigieg respect published an article in the New England Journal of Medicine just 11 days before Fauci’s March 11 testimony to congress. And, just like all the many dissenters cited above, this highly respected researcher totally rejected Fauci’s frightening claim that COVID-19 is “at least ten times more lethal than the flu.” According to this researcher, whose opinions are also often featured in the mainstream media:
The author of that New England Journal of Medicine piece was none other than Dr. Fauci himself. Apparently, the “expert opinion” to which S. E. Cupp and Pete Buttigieg are trying to bully the rest of us into joining them in blind allegiance is for the rubes and not something Fauci wanted to present to other experts unlikely to fall for bogus stats. So the next time someone tries to convince you that COVID-19 is substantially more deadly than the seasonal flu, just tell them they need to shut up and listen to Dr. Fauci. *** Did you know that the research on COVID-19 has repeatedly shown that around half of us have preexisting “crossover immunity” from prior contact with very common but harmless variant strains? How could you when top public health officials like Anthony Fauci and CDC Director Robert Redfield have not only withheld the data but gone so far as to commit perjury by denying it before Congress? Find out more on how the real COVID-19 science is being suppressed: *** Were you aware that the Chinese Communist Party started hyping COVID-19 in their official English language publication way back on January 1st? In the ensuing months, they conducted a far-reaching propaganda campaign to convince Western nations to commit suicide by imposing these unprecedented anti-science lockdowns and make billions selling us shoddy medical supplies along the way. The CCP even used a mass of fake social media accounts to attack dissenting Governor Kristi Noem for having enough brains and courage to buck the tied and not impose their lockdown-weapon on South Dakota. For the details on how China attacked America with what their top military strategist has called a “new concept of weapon” see: The disastrous policies and shocking misinformation peddled by those charged with safeguarding America’s public health these past six months may be more than just incompetence or corruption. In some cases, it might be treason. ***
Just making sure everyone's awake.
