Makary and Oz stand there and nod as their boss lies about vaccines not being tested.
Can you imagine a doctor sinking lower than this?

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.
