TikTok is removing clips of the leaked 60 Minutes segment.

The Ellison family (which acquired Paramount — CBS’s parent company — and The Free Press, making Bari Weiss Editor-in-Chief of CBS) is set to co-own TikTok through a Trump-backed deal.

Fun fact: the key term used in these discussions is clinical equipoise. Essentially, for a study to be ethical there must be a genuine uncertainty whether the intervention (withholding the vaccine) or the standard approach (giving the vaccine) is better for patients. This study is 100% unethical.
This is the best piece I’ve read so far on why the Guinea-Bissau RCT, in which a proven life-saving vaccine will be deliberately WITHHELD, is unethical

“When benefit is established, withholding an intervention is no longer neutral experimentation it becomes premeditated harm”
The planned hepatitis B birth-dose trial in Guinea-Bissau raises serious ethical concerns. Withholding a proven, life-saving vaccine from newborns to answer speculative questions is an absence of equipoise with real downstream harms for trust in vaccines.

Global north researchers running a global south field site rife with medically unethical and statistically abysmal research practices, all to manufacture support for their pet theory and undermine global vaccine access & health security…the research colonialism is genuinely staggering.

There is rarely everything normal with people so deeply invested in debunked lab theories.

Lyme disease existed for thousands of years before labs. 🤣

HIV goes back to 1900s Kinshasa, Congo; many decades before the false 'polio vaccine' HIV origin conspiracy myth 🫠

Guess time travel on the table?
NEW: On a podcast last month, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary:

- said HIV “very likely came from a lab.”

- said Lyme disease came from a lab—“a high degree of probability.”

- said the so-called “Montauk
Monster”—a bloated, dead raccoon carcass—was proof “mad scientists” were doing experiments.
FDA Commissioner: HIV “May Very Well Have Come From a Lab”
During a recent podcast appearance, Dr. Marty Makary promoted lab origin conspiracy theories involving HIV, Lyme disease, and one dead raccoon.
