Dad Saves America | Dr. Jay Bhattacharya on COVID Lies, Vaccine Truth, and the Breakdown of Science @DadSavesAmerica | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
I sat down with Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, professor of medicine at Stanford University and a leading voice in public health policy, to explore the catastrophic failures of the COVID response and what they reveal about the scientific establishment and government institutions. Dr. Bhattacharya argues that the heavy-handed approach taken during the pandemic, from lockdowns to vaccine mandates and everything in between, reflects deeper issues in the cultural norms of the scientific community. He became well known during 2020 as one of the most prominent critics of these policies and co-authored the Great Barrington Declaration, which outlined an alternative course of action focused on protecting high-risk individuals. Drawing on his additional background in economics, Dr. Bhattacharya also outlines how he believes we can reform the NIH, CDC, FDA, and the American healthcare system more broadly to improve outcomes and restore trust in our institutions.
