You would think all of this...
would be mom and apple pie, but it goes up against these far-right libertarian ideologies, so they think, and it also hurts the wellness and influencer side
industry, which is built on buying up what they can in bulk and jacking up the price and then selling it with telehealth visits.
I mean, have you ever wondered why they're all antiparasitic drugs, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, fenbendazole?
It's because there's a bucket of it.
You can buy it cheap.
You can then
jack up the price, repackage it, and sell it with a tele-office.
It's as straightforward as that.
Well, but it all makes sense because it's all about what they can make money.
Since they can't make money off vaccines, they certainly can't off of our low-cost vaccines for parasitic diseases and COVID.
It's whatever they can make money off of.
In some cases, it's jacking up the price of low-cost generics.
Another example of that is you remember when –
We had our we've been having our awful measles epidemic this year in West Texas.
And Bobby Kennedy, our secretary of health and human services, gets up there on on the cable news channels.
And he says, well, you can either get your measles, mumps, rubella vaccine, which is one of the most safest, effective vaccines we have.
Or, you know, he points you as a viable alternative.
He presents this useless cocktail of supplements of budesonide and vitamin A and clarithromycin and cod liver oil.
And you're scratching your head and say, where does that come from?
