The Checkup with Doctor Mike
Exposing Widespread Corruption In Alzheimer's Research | Charles Piller

That said, he also suggests, and I think with good reason, that we need to be emphasizing eating better foods, eating foods that don't have so many additives, trying to emphasize healthy, healthful lifestyles. Those are things that... I like to try to practice in my own life and I subscribe to, and I think an injection of that into the body politic would be of great importance.

So I guess what I would just say is that I hope that some of these appointees can be dissuaded by thoughtful people from some ideas that they might have that would be, I think, potentially disastrous to health systems and to the health of the public and to emphasize others that could be a great benefit.

Yeah. Like I I'm less concerned about the vaccines being at risk because it feels like it's more of a state issue anyway than it is a federal issue. Um, I do worry about some of the organizations like ACIP, the FDA advisory committee, um, But I'm hoping science will win at large here because I feel when RFK Jr. says we need to prove vaccines are safe, it's like, can someone show him the data?

Because that exists. I recently spoke with Dr. Paul Offit about the vaccine safety data net that we have today. where there's a participating group of medical organizations that actually track vaccines once they're implemented. And that ends up being about 10% of all vaccines given. So if there's ever an issue, issues are caught fairly early because of that. And yet that's never talked about.

And it seems like it's downplayed because people are trying to score political points and rise in the ranks. Disappointing, but I'm hoping ultimately that won't yield the negative things that we are all concerned about in the healthcare space.

Yeah, I couldn't agree with you more. And I wish that Paul Offit could maybe be made a close advisor in HHS. He'd be a great candidate for that because he... He knows his stuff and he's one of the true experts in the vaccine world that has done the most to promote the safe and effective use of vaccines.

What do you say to the average person that's listening and saying, oh man, I'm hearing of all this corruption with Alzheimer's research. How in the world can I possibly trust my doctor? How can I trust that the education my doctor received isn't based on flawed science?

Well, it's a great question, and there's no simple answer to that. But I think part of what I'm trying to do with the book that I wrote is to bring these sets of questions to a broad audience. And let me just say briefly that we're talking about a lot of scientific issues, and there are technical aspects to these, some of which are described in the book. But this is a book that is a narrative.
