Ask Dr. Drew
“I Was Wrong About Lockdowns & Mandates” says Kevin Bass. What Changed His Mind… and When Will Others Do The Same? – Ask Dr. Drew – Episode 212
08 May 2023
“I was wrong about lockdowns and mandates,” tweeted Kevin Bass. “It doesn’t matter much, but I wanted to apologize for being wrong.” He describes himself as a “former Branch Covidian, now Team Reality.” What led him to change his mind – and when will others do the same? Kevin Bass has bachelor degrees in medical anthropology and biology from UT Austin, a master’s degree in immunology, and is currently an MD / PhD student. After a “bad brush” with modern medicine when he was a child, Kevin Bass decided to change the practice of medicine from the inside by becoming a physician himself. “Only a serious commitment to science itself is sufficient, and even that too will likely fail someday,” says Bass. “If only we could adopt the proper lifestyle, nutrition, and food system, we could prevent many diseases and solve many of modern society’s problems.” Read more from Kevin Bass at https://thedietwars.com/ and follow him at https://twitter.com/kevinnbass.
