Dr. Osgood was the first guy I heard talk about Ivermectin back in October/November 2020 on The Michael Brooks Show. Because of his defense of Ivermectin and the FLCCC, he was a voice I put a lot of trust in. When he dismissed Kirsch's concerns about Vaccine safety that was all I needed to know. His takes on VAERS probably catching baseline activity shut down me listening to any of those concerns. When he left the FLCCC I stopped paying attention to them for awhile as well. Surprised to find they weren't advocating the vaccines.

But eventually I did listen to the Darkhorse podcast despite it being a member of the Dark Web which the late Michael Brooks RIP had turned me off of. I thought Weinstein was good on Early treatment but were crazy about the vaccines. Perhaps just playing to their audience. It took awhile but slowly Kirsch, and Rose, Darkhorse, Berenson and McCullough, and Crawford won me over. And now I look back and I just don't get how it is Dr. Osgood was so dismissive about vaccine safety, of VAERS, etc.

Perhaps its for the better as I now don't fully trust any single voice, or at least try not to. Anyway, figured I'd share.

Thank you for sharing. It really is a fascinating story, at least for me.

And I certainly agree with your conclusion, given the title of this substack :)

stumbled across this today. Turns out metformin may help with aging for all we know. :) https://www.statnews.com/2022/08/09/anti-aging-projects-funding-much-discussed-trial-overlooked/

Heads off ... You're showing some very disturbing issues and I really appreciate the lack of name calling and innuendo. Kudos. I am not an expert in these matters and therefore what concerns me most is the absence of any critical reporting from the main stream press. Did you consider talking to the NYPost? Although it is a populist rag it is one of the few large publications that is still very critical of the government. A lot of people like me (social democrats that are upset with how the current left that has become the establishment and seems blind for their power & vices) are reading to not suffocate in the WaPo & NYTimes (which I enjoyed for almost 40 years).

I think a real good summary of the TOGETHER trial with the 3-5 most appalling & easiest to understand arguments might force the hand of the researchers to publish their data. That data could then be leveraged further. The scientific community seems to be captured so an outside force is needed and the 4th estate is not going to provide this.

Worrying times we live in. And my biggest disappointment is how Scott Alexander is not engaging with you after your large effort and polite tone.

I'm working on something to get this story more attention in conjunction with unreleased information.

If you think this is disturbing, wait till you see what was going on behind the scenes.
