Herd Indoctrination
There is a significant psychosomatic or hypochondriacal element to the average needy citizen in America today

A quack is defined as a pretender of medical skill, and a hustler is one who obtains money by fraud or deception. Why is it that medical doctors (both internists and surgeons) don’t teach the American people the truth about the nonsensical viral “pandemic” we all experienced? Do you as an American citizen feel as if you are being had?
You need to hear it from a doctor, a doctor who is committed to tell you the truth, such that you will be equipped to trust him or her to help you get well and back to normal. The problem with all doctors, except me, is that they are owned by the runaway greedy and deceptive government such that if they sing, they will be fired. Doctors are afraid for their livelihoods.
I am a licensed California physician and surgeon, authorized to practice voluntary service medicine and surgery, and recognized in good standing with the Medical Board of California (MBC), the licensing agency for the approximate 125,000 physicians in California. Although medicine is my love, she is not my livelihood, so I feel very comfortable telling you the absolute truth. I furthermore recognize that by exercising my freedom of speech, I may be censored by the MBC with revocation of my license to practice medicine and surgery as a U.S. physician, and I am not afraid!
Furthermore, I am a general surgeon, the most qualified individual in America to explain “sterile technique” which includes mask wearing, protection, sterile fields, barriers, sterilizers, antiseptic and aseptic surgery and many other scientific facts which make up the “attention to detail” skill of this particular discipline. I have a very intimate understanding of bacterial and viral pathogens as well. Sadly, I have a limited yet distinct history with human bureaucrat parasites (swamp), which is why I changed vocations quite some time ago. I am hanging in there in a non-medical business in Sacramento where I have been for my entire adult life, now 69 years worth. I suffer, but my suffering is joy.
Sorry for the long introduction, but there is no other way say the above. This paper is about you and your welfare. Let me put it bluntly. Yes, you are being had by quacks. I just ordered a book called “Quackery. A brief history of the worst ways to cure everything.” Can’t wait until it gets here, because I was able to skim the introduction and it is all about crooked ploys. I will recommend it to you if it’s as good as it looks so far. The author should have good subject matter with our present fiasco, as California medicine will be great evidence for the next edition!
Back in 2015 here in California, a bill, Senate Bill 277 was signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown. I was a member of the Nevada County Tea Party and asked to assist in determining whether the law was good or bad, because I am a physician and folks would surely believe me, right? The law mandated all kids going to school, public or private, and even preschoolers, to be vaccinated in order to attend classes.
Many young families took issue with the law and were labelled anti-vaxers and home-schoolers in a negative way by the herd, those indoctrinated folks who are hooked on bad government. It was as if the anti-vaxers were the equivalent of lepers and all they could do was comply with the law, yelling back “big pharma” as they were trampled to the ground.
So it became my job to talk with some of these irritated family members. I tried to explain to them that their pediatricians were owned, indoctrinated and simply doing their jobs. I tried to explain that ethics are not indicated in this model, but that abiding by the rules is all that is indicated. I failed in trying to heal these rightfully furious “lepers.”
Our present society is well off when it comes to suffering and pain, really very content. If anything goes wrong, like a belly ache or fever or chills or a stuffy nose or a headache, folks get really concerned and head out to the doctor quickly for their CT scan. Doctors will tell you if you are listening carefully, that about 80% of MD visits aren’t indicated, especially if you are paying for the visit! There is a significant psychosomatic or hypochondriacal element to the average needy citizen in America today.
Doctors are doing a great job when they diffuse the panic in that 80% of patients by caringly letting them know that they don’t have a serious problem and that they will be fine, even to the extent of prescribing placebos, and by avoiding prescribing dangerous drugs that harm patients in order to get them out of their hair. Those same doctors are also doing a great job when they recognize sick people and instinctively get to work and diagnose diseases and render appropriate therapy and help real deal sick patients get better, and by avoiding overlooking serious signs and symptoms and discharging those patients to get them out of their hair without needed therapy, also called medical negligence. Those are the ones my surgical mentor of trauma told me caused scars on his cerebral cortex. Doctors are still very much needed, for all patients. Don’t forget it.
There is one other aspect of my history as a physician that has always been valuable to me in helping patients heal. I tried to get the young families to understand but I failed. Surgeons are extremely well versed in the art of providing a process called “informed consent” to all patients they operate on. This includes all adults, age 18 and over, and all pediatric patients, via the consent of a legal guardian or parent. The consent form must be signed before proceeding.
So if a problem develops either during or after the operation the surgeon is liable. Surgeons are unique in this regard and the better you are as a surgeon, the more likely you will be allowed to proceed. Good surgeons beget good surgeons. Informed consent sells the operation and the patient takes a liking to the surgeon before the operation commences. The doctor and the patient both know it and work through the process and make a friend and do their collective part in helping God conquer a disease!
Informed consent is a three part careful, caring, convincing, persuading discussion about the upcoming operation. If successful, it is friendly, sincere and empathetic, yet not touchy-feely. The first part defines the reason for the operation. It answers why there is benefit by going forward. It is the rationale. The second part is risk. What are the known side effects? Could I die from the operation? Is this operation more lethal or dangerous than the disease? And finally, the third part is what are the alternatives? What will likely happen if I refuse to undergo surgery? How long can I expect to live? What if, for instance, I wish to undergo radiation therapy instead of surgical extirpation of the diseased organ?
All of these questions need to be answered in order for the surgeon to be doing his or her job correctly and carefully. It’s the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me God, and it is powerful!
So now back to you. My diagnosis for your coronavirus panic instilling malady as our swamp government continues to push for quack “herd indoctrination” in the name of humanitarian “herd immunity” is lies, lies, lies. It is your responsibility to demand of your doctors to render exhaustive informed consent before you subject yourself to any of the coronavirus vaccines. You need the Truth, scientific method truth, not asserted quack science hustle as your guide. You must demand that the quack government make their owned physicians offer you a complete, thorough, and honest informed consent. Those physicians will either grow a spine and help us conquer big government politics or be replaced by new physicians chomping at the bit for great careers helping patients and carrying out their Hippocratic Oath sworn responsibilities!
That’s the best I can do folks. I tried my best in 2015 and failed. I can only hope that other good doctors will step up and help me, as the common goal of good physicians is to help you heal. We are anti-vaxers until scientific proof exists to the contrary and we are saying “free enterprise medicine,” because good and fearless physicians beget good and fearless physicians!

Another example of herd medicine are flu shots. Doctors and family members are shocked when I say I don’t want a flu vaccine. What for? I went 20 years without ever getting the flu.
Yep…
Who knows what nasties are now being included in. those “flu shots ” these days….
Phamakeia….
