Thank you! Our entire society has an issue with false dichotomies and that is certainly on full display with conspiritualists. Most things aren't either/or but yes/and. I too have been kept alive by big pharms and they are also greedy bas*****. Too many people think it has to be one or the other! I love the podcast, by the way.
Big Pharma shill here and you’re spot on. While we scientists in the trenches will never be filthy rich, we can make a decent living in a pretty volatile field. Our academic colleagues that are funded by govt grants lay the path for our drug development. Like it or not, the profit motive drives incredible discoveries, like the newest forms of cancer treatments (car-T, keytruda, etc), rheumatoid arthritis, HepC and AIDS. We love what we do for society and it permeates our daily work lives. There are plenty of evil executives in every industry but that doesn’t mean lives that could be saved have to be sacrificed for a pure economic philosophy.
Somehow I doubt that antivaxers who say we should reject vaccines because "you can't trust Big Pharma!" would decline clot-busting drugs if they were suffering incipient stroke, or reject antibiotics to save their lives from sepsis.
Thank you Derek. As someone who works in Pharma but also struggles with an autoimmune disease I know that both Western and Eastern medicine can offer important health options for consumers. It's not binary! I love your podcast too - I always appreciate the perspective the 3 of you bring to these discussions.
Derek .... Sadly You have shockingly failed to do adequate research. Big Pharma/MSM/Big Ed/Big Ag/UN/Khazarian Fake Jew Puppet Masters/Fake UK Monarchy/Vatican have a long-planned agenda to reduce human population to 500,000,000. Too many so-called spiritual ppl are ridiculously naive. Pls WAKE UP. How many young ppl do you know who have inexplicably dropped dead in the last year? Cuz I see them dropping dead w/o any logical cause other than the POISON JAB(S). For those who stay naive, more will die unnecessarily. DO NOT ACCEPT ANYMORE BIOWEAPON JABS! Trust GOD more than Big Pharma!

Theirs is a very selective distrust.
