A famous anti-vaccine advocate discusses Fauci's history, and the pandemic response

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 16 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

(Note – I don't have any political affiliation. I'm a neutral, independent voter, and I always try to review books based on their content; instead of just praising or vilifying books based on political leanings. As always, I will summarize the points made in the book, and conclude with my opinions and whether or not I enjoyed reading it.)

This book was written by Robert F. Kennedy Jr, son of the former senator Robert F. Kennedy, and nephew of former president John F. Kennedy. This book is divided into 12 main chapters, with a total of about 930 pages in the digital version. (This page total is so high partly because of the many pages of “Endnotes” found at the end of each chapter. There are hundreds of individually numbered Notes, with links to the source documents.)

In the Introduction, Kennedy gives some background and explains his goals in writing this book. He explains that he has been a lifelong Democrat, and that his family members have helped write many of the laws related to public health policies over the years; but that his personal experiences since 2005 have caused him to question connections between “Big Pharma” and government agencies. Kennedy has been a very vocal opponent of vaccines since 2005; claiming, among other things, that vaccines can lead to autism in children. The focus of this book, however, is on Dr. Anthony Fauci; and Kennedy's main goal is to demonstrate that Dr. Fauci is more concerned with financial gain for himself and his associates than making sound decisions about public health.

Over the first few chapters, Kennedy attempts to make the following main points: 1) There were several medications that were identified very early in the pandemic that had a least some evidence of being effective at preventing severe outcomes in COVID patients; but this information was suppressed by Fauci and the NIAID. 2) Dr. Fauci was focused on developing and approving a vaccine, mainly because Fauci and his associates stood to benefit financially from the vaccine and approved medications. Kennedy is able to cite different sources when it comes to data about the effectiveness of certain medical treatments, but his claims about Bill Gates's motivations seem to be purely based on personal opinion, without compelling source evidence. This pattern shows up frequently in the book, where Kennedy presents interesting information about possible medical alternatives or mishandled government decisions, but then leaps to the conclusions that certain people are conspiring to kill millions of Americans in order to make more money. This could also be true, but the hundreds of pages of notes and source documents don't provide much in the way of evidence of such diabolical intentions.

Kennedy asserts that Bill Gates has full control over the World Health Organization, and that he funded fraudulent clinical trials in order to make hydroxychloroquine seem like an ineffective treatment. The goal here, according to Kennedy, was to make sure there were no accepted medical treatments, so that Gates and Fauci could push their vaccine agenda, and profit from approved medications like remdesivir. It is very obvious that Kennedy dislikes Gates and Fauci, and he even includes quotes from Gates that personally mention Kennedy as a famous anti-vaxxer. If you are reading this book from a truly neutral perspective, it takes some work to attempt to see through the biases and focus on the relevant science.

The rest of the book is mostly focused on Fauci's history; mainly dealing with his past working on the HIV/AIDS epidemic, and his association with clinical trials and medical treatments in Africa. Kennedy seems to intend to prove that Fauci is a racist that has been experimenting on Africans for years, though this isn't much evidence supporting this conclusion. Kennedy's most compelling charge against Fauci is probably his implication that through Fauci's support of gain-of-function research, Fauci might have inadvertently contributed to the development of dangerous pathogens himself.

Overall, this book provides some interesting details and links to lesser-known sources, though I would encourage readers to follow-up and read more about some of the science discussed in the book. The details about Dr. Fauci's personal history, and about possible conflicts of interest, are certainly interesting and worth consideration; however there are also a few leaps in reasoning that seem very agenda-driven here. In can be true that Dr. Fauci has some conflicts of interest, without it also meaning that ALL vaccines are dangerous and responsible for a decline in American health. I do not agree with some of the assertions made in this book, but I can still appreciate the contribution to further discussions. Always consider the source, and try to absorb new information while drawing your own conclusions.

Perry Marshall

Pages 84-86 cast doubts on the rest of the book. Look & decide for yourself

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 20 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

I am distrustful of Big Government. I am unhappy with how the US has handled COVID-19. I am unhappy about the very real possibility that the virus itself came from gain-of-function experiments in the Wuhan lab, funded by US, Canadian and Chinese funds [AKA my tax dollars] and those experiments with Coronaviruses are described in a 2015 paper by Ralph Baric et al.

So when a friend suggested that I should take a serious look at a book that documents deep financial conflicts of interests between Big Pharma and NHS and CDC... and me knowing as published scientific author how political and bureaucratic science funding and publishing is... he didn't have to twist my arm

There is a LOT of heavily footnoted information here. If only 25% of the accusations are true, one should be pretty concerned. I suspect there's a decent chance that 25% of these accusations are in fact true.

But I quickly encountered an insurmountable problem with this book, and it was the graphs on page 84, 85 and 86 correlating vaccine injections with COVID deaths.

The book asserts that as soon as the vaccine programs were initiated, death rates from COVID-19 started going up. It alleges that the deaths were caused by the vaccines. It illustrates this with graphs of various countries, showing the point at which vaccines kicked in, consistently followed by a steep rise in deaths.

This is all clearly spelled out and illustrated in 24 graphs which appear to tell a very consistent and frightening story.

But there are some problems.

The print is very blurry so you can't see the dates - either in the printed book or the Kindle version.

I looked up the same data via search terms like "Ireland COVID stats" on Google. If you choose "deaths" instead of "cases" you get identical data to what is in the book, for each country you choose.

That's when I looked closely and compared.

The first graph is Ireland. Ireland shows a steep upward spike in deaths right at the beginning of January 2021. The arrow on the chart in this book indicates the vaccine program started just a few weeks before that.

But... that's not what happened.

The arrow is only indicating when vaccines first were announced (December). They did not get distributed until many months later (spring and summer).

Plus... I was IN Ireland December 27 2020 to January 4 2021! I managed to get into the country and spend a week hiking. It was right in the middle of my week there that Ireland's COVID cases started spiking. They moved the country from Level 3 to Level 5 lockdown while I was there. The hospitals started filling up and that was all they were talking about on the radio as I drove back to Dublin to fly home.

THIS HAD *NOTHING WHATSOEVER* TO DO WITH VACCINES. Vaccines did not cause this spike in COVID cases because nobody could get vaccines in Ireland in January 2021. They were not available.

The spike occurred in Ireland (and most of those other countries) because it was wintertime in cold countries, people were forced inside and it was easier for the virus to spread. And Christmas had just occurred, people were visiting relatives and people got sick.

3-4 months later, you see deaths going down because 1) vaccines getting distributed and 2) winter was coming to an end, people were opening windows, going outside and not having social gatherings indoors.

I cannot fathom how any person could include pages 84-86 in this book and say what these graphs allegedly mean. Not unless they were either A) so ideologically possessed that they couldn't possibly see the data any other way, or B) convinced that the 'other side' is so evil that telling lies about them were somehow justified.

At best this shows extremely poor judgment on the part of the authors, editors and publisher.

At worst it is wanton disregard of facts.

This is unfortunate because it casts everything else in the book into question.

Is it true that $4.9 billion of the $12 billion CDC budget comes from vaccines? I don't know. This book says that's the case. It wouldn't surprise me.

But if it is true, Kennedy shot his entire case in the foot and poisoned the well with bad and very unnecessary information.

It's not very often that a book exposing government corruption makes it to the tippy top of the bestseller lists. So - when that rare opportunity comes, why are people sabotaging their chance to be heard with misleading and wrong conclusions from misinterpreted data?

What else did they get wrong???

And why weren't there enough fact checkers in place to stop these illustrations from making it into the book before it went to press?

Does anyone care?

I don't have time to research the rest. I supposedly paid the publisher and authors to do good research when I gave them my money for the book in the first place. We will have to leave it to others to sift truth from fiction.

Seventh Degree

Attacking Republicans defeats an excellent argument

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 18 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

I am a physician and I agree entirely with Robert Kennedy‘s assessment of Dr. Fauci’s medical knowledge, integrity, and motivations—suspect in all ways. However, what does Kennedy start talking about almost from the beginning in the introduction? He acts as if Republicans are the cause of the problems and if you didn’t know so much as I do, he would actually think Dr. Fauci must be a Republican! No Robert! Dr. Fauci is one of your progressive Democrats! Get off your political high horse and stick with the science.

I have updated my review after reading additional chapters

Beoordeeld in Canada op 6 januari 2022

Geverifieerde aankoop

While the author is looking at everything Dr. Fauci does from his hypothesis that Dr. Fauci is a master manipulator, if I keep an open mind, I need to give credit for all the research that went into crafting this book. Once the author has called someone a derogatory name once or twice, how often does it need to be repeated? In this book, very often.

The World of Fools

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 25 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

“The ultimate result of shielding men from the effects of folly, is to fill the world with fools.” — Herbert Spencer

“This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector.” — Plato

I love RFK Jr., he’s a real hero doing a great amount of good in the world and this book is no exception – except for a glaring omission. I think he doesn’t realize how his own family has over generations helped unleash the COVID-19 hell on the American populace, by creating a government that vastly overreaches in its regulatory ambitions, thereby inducing a complacent and compliant, child-like public that’s brainwashed into thinking that this is all a very good thing for their “safety.”

This topic is vast so let me just give an example.

In a proper world, and in the world of the United States prior to circa 1900, as an adult I shouldn’t need a doctor’s permission before I take a given medication. That’s not “between me and my doctor”, it’s solely my own business. The government is there to protect my rights, not to create a medical cartel who has designs to keep me “safe” from myself.

Being free to ingest what I choose is what’s called a “natural right”, and was the original basis and inspiration for the American form of governance. Such right exists prior to any government, and “The fact therefore must be that the individuals themselves, each in his own personal and sovereign right, entered into a contract with each other to produce a government: and this is the only mode in which governments have a right to arise, and the only principle on which they have a right to exist.” (Thomas Paine)

There is no “right” for my neighbor to keep me “safe” from my bad choices regardless of their “good intentions” (aka “busybodies”), so there is no right for a group of my neighbors, a whole city of them, or a whole nation of them to do it either. Therefore such right cannot be delegated to government, and if you do it then what you have created is a tyranny (in this case, a medical tyranny – and lo and behold, many are now partly becoming aware of this beast they have supported).

For some reason the Kennedys never understood such principles, but these are the real long-forgotten basis of the American form of governance.

Fauci is horrible, but inevitable. If it were not him, it would have been someone else. That’s how the system is engineered to work, in spite of the “good (busybody) intentions” of the Kennedys and huge army of overweening do-gooders. Are the problems they’ve tried to solve real? Sure. But the way in which they solved them was to set up a tyranny. There were better methods, those that were actually true to the foundation of the American system. Would they have protected every fool from himself? No, and protecting a fool from himself is very bad goal for government. On a proper perspective, it’s morally vicious to infringe the fool’s natural liberty to be a fool, in spite of any “good intentions” to “save him from himself.”

I support RFK Jr.’s indictment of Fauci, and I greatly appreciate his civic spirit and work, but I also think he’s turning Fauci into a scapegoat for the crimes inherent in the regulatory apparatus RFK Jr. himself supports. And of course it’s not just RFK Jr. who supports it, but most Americans. Some very deep reflection on eternal truths is in order here, and a return to the founding ideals of the American Declaration of Independence.

Removing Fauci would be good of course, but it would also be akin to trying to cure skin cancer by washing it off with soap and water. These totalitarian agencies need to be shut down or at least neutered.

“How charming people are! – always doctoring, increasing and complicating their disorders, fancying they will be cured by some nostrum which somebody advises them to try, never getting better, but always getting worse… Are they not as good as a play, trying their hand at legislation, and imagining that by reforms they will make an end to the dishonesties and rascalities of mankind – not knowing that in reality they are cutting away at the heads of a hydra?” — Plato

He hates Trump

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 24 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

I was looking forward to this book but it’s hard to overlook RFK Jr’s intense dislike for President Trump. He talks about the world’s dwindling faith in America’s leadership under Trump. Are you kidding me? And how Americans initially found solace in Fauci’s serene presence in contrast to President Trump’s chaotic style. Well I knew Fauci was a liar from the beginning. Disappointed Kennedy could not keep his political bias out of this book offending half the country. It makes me much more cautious as I have continued on in the book.

Book Has Verifiable Lie

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 29 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

This book has so much to like about it: the receipts and the medical team verification. However, he states "Trump's notorious recommendation for bleach to cure COVID," it kinda makes you take pause and wonder. This is factually false and easily verifiable. He gives tons of examples of misinformation by Fauci and others, but perpetuates this lie. Otherwise, a great book.

RIP dear Rush, Democrats will never change.

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 23 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

I will likely finish the book as it promises a lot of good (and yes, I'd say reliable) information but I can't resist commenting on Kennedy's comical notion as to how "we" got here. He wants us to know that if Republicans hadn't been constantly trying to cut "agency" funding, then the CDC, NIH, FDA and so forth would never have had to whore up to big pharma for some spending cash.

Print too small

Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 19 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

First off, I'm a member, contributor, and huge supporter of Robert Kennedy and Children's Health Defense. I pre-ordered the book. This review is not about its content, as I haven't read much of it yet because of the way it was put together by the publisher. There are only 3/8" margins on top, bottom, and side. And there are 44 lines per page. Slogging thru all 449 pages will be difficult on my eyes, so I'll probably have to skim it. I compared it to another hardcover book of the same size. That book has approximately 1" margins per page and only 33 lines when nothing is quoted. The font is bigger and the pages are of better quality.

It makes me sad to say this, as I'd like to see "The Real Anthony Fauci" garner many thousands of sales, but it's hard for me to recommend the hardcover edition. Anyone who views it in a bookstore may be put off when they open it, and put it back on the shelf. That's a shame, as the word needs to get out to as many as possible. In hindsight, I wish I'd saved some money and bought the Kindle Edition instead.
