Ethics of Remdesivir in COVID Treatment
Remember
that in 2018, remdesivir, one of my favorite targets,
remdesivir was too unethical to put into Ebola clinical
trials in Africa because it had a 53% kill rate
published in medical journals. Ebola doesn't have a
53% kill rate, but it was chosen in April and May of
2020 to be the drug of choice to treat COVID?
This drug was too unethical to use in an African
clinical trial because it was killing 53% of the people that it
was given
to, and we had Anthony Fauci, Deborah
Birx sitting next to the president going, "We need to use remdesivir,"
despite the fact that the World Health Organization said it
was unethical to use
it. Here's the problem. The problem is as long as the
financial interest that dictates what product
is going to be promoted
is the one making the declaration of the pandemic, we have
no possibility for accountability.
We have no possibility for justice.
And what we do is we allow people who were formed out of the eugenics
office, Carnegie Mellon in 1913, that same
group of people that were the same group of people
that established the World
Health Organization in 1953, that same group of people are
the ones who are making this decision.
And I don't h- know how you feel about eugenics,
but I have a problem with it.
