The following is from Children’s Health Defense by Josh Mitteldorf, Ph.D.
The Antimicrobial Resistance Congress was held this week in conjunction with the Disease Prevention & Control Summit in Philadelphia. I attended as a sociologist, seeking to understand how these people think and how their organizations work.
It was immediately apparent that this was a business meeting, not an academic conference. Dozens of booths were set up in the main exhibit hall. People were giving away chachkas and were eager to talk about their products.
The opening keynote speech was delivered not by a scientist or policy wonk — but by Dr. Alan Dunton, chief medical adviser and non-executive director of Recce Pharmaceuticals, an uber-successful Australian biotech startup.
Dunton boasted about Recce 327, a synthetic broad-spectrum antibiotic designed to kill every kind of bacteria. All of them, instantly. With no side effects. None. Not only that, the bacteria were completely unable to develop resistance. The company did an exhaustive search for escaped and mutated bacteria and didn’t find any. Not a single one. In a full 30 days.
This is a good thing? Does Dunton know that there are far more commensal bacteria than infectious? That we need our microbiomes to be healthy?
The high point of my day was when someone (besides me) asked about the gut microbiota. “We have no data,” Dunton responded.
Of course not. Why would they collect data that could only be harmful to product sales?
Carolyn Reynolds, co-founder of Pandemic Action Network, told us there are dozens of new outbreaks every day, all over the world, every one a pandemic just waiting to explode. Danger! Danger! Monkeypox has reached Antarctica, she said.
The good news is that there is consensus on how to prevent the next one. Spend more money. Lower bureaucratic barriers for drug approval. And vaccinate, don’t hesitate.

Actually, Big Pharma ( aka : Medical Mafia )
owns the Pseudo-Science, as new drugs are
allowed to be marketed if they demonstrate
the efficacy of a PLACEBO (( late-1990s FDA
APPROVAL ruling )).
Consider handling of Wegovy and Ozempic
drugs, which are sold without concerns about
side-effects—while being warned by law groups
of their many ill-effects, and inviting the injured
to join their class-action lawsuits.
Cognitive dissonance !—much as with wine good/
wine bad AND coffee good/ coffee bad reports
by Big Pharma controlled media.

“ The U.S. Food and Drug Administration ( FDA )
is seeking to persuade a federal court to dismiss
a lawsuit challenging its repeated advisories
against using ivermectin to treat COVID-19. “

How many had that myopic/corrupt AGENCY
killed—by interfering with doctor/patient
relationships ?
30 days! What a joke! How can you know anything about a new antibiotic with only 30 days.
