The speakers are Dr. Paul Marik [more here] and Steve Kirsch.
And you know what, the average hospital bill is about $400,000 to $500,000 per COVID patient. Hospitals get 20% bonus on the entire hospital bill.
5:30 If you don't go along with their protocol, you'll be terminated, and they'll find anyway to terminate you. And we should know, that there are probably financially incentives. If you're diagnosed with COVID, you get a bonus. If you're intubated, you get a bonus. If you prescribe this ridiculous drug, Remdesivir, which increases your risk of death, you get a 20% bonus. So there are enormous financial incentives for them
. . . just for prescribing a drug?
5:55 Yes, for prescribing Remdesivir, you get a 20% bonus on the entire hospital bill.
Who's paying that, the U.S. government? Yes, so these are Medicare patients. If you're a Medicare patient, you get a 20% bonus . . .
On the entire bill?
On the entire hospital bill . . . . And you know what, the average hospital bill is about $400,000 to $500,000 per COVID patient.
6:27 Wow, so we're talking a significant incentive for the hospital to say "follow the protocols."
6:35 Yes, there's a lot of small chain involved. And that's why they don't like troublemakers who are going to interfere with their bottom line. I mean the patient outcome, whether the patient lives or dies, is completely irrelevant. It's all about the bottom line and profiteering and making money.
7:02 So, a lot of people think that we should be incentivizing hospitals to save lives and that hospitals should get $100,000 if they saved a COVID life. If someone checked in and is suffering respiratory distress, and the hospital is able to save that patient, they should get like a $30,000 bonus. They should incentivize the outcomes that you want, right?
Boy, is that a telling remark!
7:26 Yes, so it's upside down. You actually get incentivized if patients die, which is completely opposite of the traditional Chinese Medicine. In fact, if patients did badly, these practitioners weren't paid. They weren't incentivized if they patient did badly. We actually have a system where the hospital actually profits when a patients gets intubated, going on a ventilator, and dying.
7:52 So, what woke you up, what made you realize that the vaccine that you were asked to take and that you willingly took, what caused you to shift from being a believer in the safety of the vaccine, of the COVID vaccine, to now speaking out against the COVID vaccine? What was the moment that did that, or did that happen over time?
8:14 Yeah, so when the vaccines came out, I was vaccinated in December 2020. Firstly, I had no option, because I would have been terminated. Secondly, at that time, I believed the narrative. What can I say? I am like most doctors who've been brainwashed and indoctrinated, so I did believe the narrative. And then with time, it took time, Pierre figured this out much quicker than me. I was still a little bit on the fence, but with time it became clear. First, we had no idea what's in these vials. We have no idea what's happening. They were inadequately tested and they lied to us, and it became clearer with time that this was one big massive lie, that they were neither safe, nor effective. And as more and more data came out, and we saw from the VAERS data and multiple databases that they had lied to us and then it became clear.
9:20 So was it the accumulation of data that you were observing and instead of just reading the conclusions of the paper, you were looking at the underlying data. And were you seeing that first
14:05. Like, can you practice medicine today? Did they take away your licenses, or what did they take away from you?
14:10. Yes, so you know, this all happened independently, Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Brian Tyson, Dr. Ryan Cole, Dr. Urso, it's not like we conspired together. We just independently came to the same conclusion. If you look at the data, there's no other conclusion to see. My end result was basically the hospital [Sentara Norfolk General Hospital in Norfolk, Virginia] terminated my career for good.
14:40. You can't go to any other hospital because you're essentially blacklisted at this hospital which means you can't get into any other hospital?
14:47. Yeah, so they reported me to the National Practitioner Data Bank, and once you get into the data bank as a devious, deviant, bad-actor doctor, it's almost impossible to get out of it. Also, they reported me to the Board, and then the Board of Medicine came up with their own concocted charges against me. So, this is the problem if you try to speak out, try and speak the truth. The Board of Medicine accused me of prescribing Ivermectin to a bunch of patients who were injured. The truth of it is I've actually been able to prescribe Ivermectin. Ever. And the patients they claimed I treated are non-existent patients, so that tells you how far the virginia Board of Medicine will go to accuse me of prescribing Ivermectin to non-existent patients. I mean I never wrote a scripp for anyone.
15:50. So how did those non-existent patients actually do? Did they show you the medical records of those patients?
15:58. No, no what they do is the same thing as sham peer review. They accuse you of a crime but they don't give you the evidence. So in my sham peer review they accused me of 7 outrageous charges but they were unable to provide any evidence, any evidence actually to support the charges that they made. One of the charges was that I forced a nurse to give a patient a medication to which the patient was allergic. Now, I mean can you imagine something that outrageous? They were unable to provide any evidence that I'd actually done such a thing but I was assumed guilty as charged and I had no legal representation, and based on these bogus charges they withdrew my hospital privileges.
16:48. Is there a public record of this so that the public can get this record and look at the name of the patient . . . and maybe it's redacted. Is there a way that this can be verified independently by a 3rd party or is it all done behind closed doors?
17:07. So, if it's done behind closed doors, i was never given the name of the patient. So believe it or not, I was accused of this crime but the name of the patient was never disclosed to me, nor was I given any information regarding the patient. And it's meant to be privileged and confidential but obviously I am not going to hide it because it's an outrage, it's immoral, it's evil. So, no, I have written a little story about this because it's an outrage. I have shared this story with a number of representatives in the Virginia Legislature who know about this. And Robert Malone knows about it too. He's actually . . . he's doing a book and in his book he's going to cover this whole nasty episode. But this thing, it's not unknown. I was ignorant and never knew about it, but if you actually look unto it there's this thing called sham peer review, it's well-known. And it's what hospitals do to get rid of doctors they consider to be troublemakers.
18:17. So there's no public record, no record at all of who your charges, who your patients were supposedly? And why did they not reveal to you the name of the patient who you prescribed the ivermectin to because that's your patient. There's no confidentiality there, so why would they not want to reveal that name to you?
18:40. That was the Board. The Board of Medicine
