Der Dr. Sheftall: I am one of the ordinary citizens who spoke up about it early on. I blogged and blogged and blogged about it - burning through friendships, business relationships at a rate I would never have imagined. All I was trying to do is call for calm, using the CDC's own all-cause mortality statistics, showing that the cure (lockdown) was far worse that the disease. All cause mortality among the 25 - 44 year old skyrocketed already during 2020! IN 2021, I called it A crime Against Humanity. At this point even some very close family members turned against me (the cancel culture was in full swing). Then I published a book about it, "COVID-19: The Education of a Curious American Citizen". Amazon refused to list it. "Your writings include statements that are not aligned with official government policy" was their excuse. I experienced this entire episode (and it is not over, not by a long shot), as totalitarian of a kind reminiscent of what emerged during the 1930's in Germany. I know it is not popular to say so, but that is my considered opinion. Thank you for your writings. I would like to send you a complimentary copy of my book.

I remember sitting with Dr. Sheftall in Phnom Penh 3 years ago discussing why our brains perceive minor chords as sad, when the news came down about the lockdowns.

My upcoming flight was cancelled, but luckily I managed to get out on the last plane or I would have been stuck there for a year.

We had been talking that night of this emerging pandemic, and the non-scientific reactions and mandates. None of it made sense medically, but only as a political tool.

In the following months as data was manipulated and vaccines rushed out, Dr. Reid maintained a sense of reason and the courage to ask ‘Why?’. He has been a solid and consistent voice of reason, and now that the truth is finally emerging, is holding their feet to the fire.

They knew this was political.

They knew this was deadly.

They knew they were wrong. And now they’re half hearted ‘we did our best with what we knew’ is disingenuous and completely untrue.

Call out these cowards.
