From @DrDavidHealy : We have to make a difference in the case of a death like Stephen’s. Everyone involved in Stephen’s case and later inquest seemed to be decent people. The decent medical people, perhaps on the advice of their lawyers, shucked off responsibility – as medical people, maybe always advised by lawyers, regularly do. An inquest is one of the few times a doctor can make the medicines we take safer – by telling a coroner that its likely a drug did kill the person. Unless a doctor opens up this possibility, it is impossible for a coroner to do anything. Even with the option opened up, its difficult for a coroner. At best s/he can draw the attention of the powers that be to the case – who will then ignore what has happened. It was unfortunate that Stephen’s doctor failed to rise to the challenge, because this was an occasion where a family was waiting to try and bring good out of a situation rather than seek retribution and with the resources to do so. How the system dealt with Stephen is almost certainly how it will deal with you whether you die from drug induced agitation, a heart attack, or stroke – unless the failings of the system are so gross that they cannot be ignored in which case they get passed off as a rotten apple issue and throwing the apple out means the system stays the same. Most passers-by if forced to read this post would likely figure antidepressant induced suicide is unlikely to happen to them. Most are likely also pretty annoyed at the Vaccine Hesitant who are putting us all at risk. Doctors who fail to stand up for their patients or the patient’s family at inquests do a great deal to create vaccine hesitancy. They kill the trust that those who have been harmed by treatments originally had – or they would never have taken the treatment in the first place. This trust is not just in sertraline or a vaccine, its trust in the doctor recommending it and in the institutions that s/he trusts. Anyone who figures our institutions cannot be trusted: ▪️to be transparent about the data, ▪️and transparent about how fake the medical literature is, ▪️and transparent about how our doctors and others will respond when treatments kill or maim us – after we’ve taken them to benefit ourselves or ordered to take them by our doctors (who get paid more if we do) or to benefit our community in the case of vaccines... is on pretty solid grounds. These grounds offer a good basis for hesitancy. This has nothing to do with fear of vaccines and everything to do a horrible awareness that we cannot depend on people we thought we could trust. For your doctor or politicians or Brenda Hale, or NICE, or Medical Associations or Medical Journals or anyone else to blame anyone who is vaccine hesitant for these reasons is contemptible. This is a problem that is not going to go away until we either have a complete surveillance state or doctors and others regain our trust.

Politicians secretly changing the rules to benefit themselves while Aussies struggle? Enough is enough.

At Stephen’s inquest Professor David Healy, expert witness, testified under oath that MHRA (and the FDA) don’t have access to pharmaceutical companies raw trial data, that drugs get approved without proper independent scrutiny and that the bulk of medical literature is ghost written. Guess what happened?! NOTHING You would have thought such a revelation would have caused uproar. You would have thought the coroner would have wanted to work with Professor Healy to make medicines safer. On the other hand, if Healy was lying......you would have at least expected him to be charged with perjury or libel. NOTHING HAPPENED.......except the court transcript was withheld from us unless we signed an undertaking not to use it for any other reason but deciding on an appeal (even though it was a public court). Dr Healy was outright denied a copy of the transcript even though he was an expert witness. Also, Stephen’s case was never published online due to “legal issues” ......and the BIG nothing......NICE, MHRA and the Health Minister all admit it happens, they know.......but it’s not their problem to resolve. The whole system is corrupt to the core. This massive systematic failing of allowing pharmaceutical companies to hide clinical trial results during the approval phase, to get their products to market, is nothing short of genocide. #PrescribedHarm #TimeForTruth #TimeForTransparency #TimeForChange #StephensVoice

🚨 BABY DEATHS: THE UNTOLD TRUTH- MIDWIFE PERSPECTIVE 🚨 🔴We are living in a time where midwives and nurses are increasingly vilified, often portrayed as the culprits in tragic baby deaths. But is the full truth really being told?🔴 Take the case of Lucy Letby—new evidence suggests she may be innocent. Yet, once a narrative takes hold, it becomes nearly impossible to challenge, even when critical details are overlooked. I know this firsthand. I wasn’t even on shift when a baby passed away, yet I’ve been publicly blamed for their death. How many others have faced similar accusations without due process? The real issue here is the deeply flawed internal workings of NHS Trusts. We are part of one of the most gagged professions—midwifery and nursing. The public sees one side of the story, but behind closed doors, there is so much more that is being hidden. I strongly believe that many inquests should be reopened, and that justice should not be determined by a system that buries the voices of those on the frontlines. The truth must come out. It’s time to ask the hard questions. Who benefits from these accusations? What’s really happening behind closed doors? And most importantly—how many innocent professionals have been wrongfully targeted while the real issues remain ignored? #JusticeForMidwives #NursingTruth #NHSCrisis #TimeForTransparency #midwifery #nursing #nmc #nhs

Any likelihood of you publishing a few stories or case studies about a few more hard working and honest Fed Reps? Some great examples out there such as Mark Jones, Steve Hartson or @Steve_Treharne #timefortruth #timefortransparency #timeforchange #smellthebeans

I am sorry, but assuming his salary was anywhere close to that should raise some serious questions. As a point of reference, the US President’s salary is $400K per year. Just sayin’ @willmcraney #NAMB #TimeForTransparency

It good initiative but we as university student demand the board concerned to have a clear criteria on disbursement we are tired of bursary benefiting the rich's kid while the needy students misses exams or allocated 3-5k ya kutufunga macho #timefortransparency.

Fraud and corruption is rife in public life. Anyone who denies that some areas of local government mirror the national picture is naive. #timefortransparency nao.org.uk/reports/tackling-…

It seems the government thinks the 'dignity of the crown' can only be preserved by hiding its true behaviour. More proof that 'the crown' isn't worth preserving. #timefortransparency #FollowTheFOIA

Proposed amendment 101 to the Scottish rent freeze bill would have required ministers to report whether any changes to the bill were "suggested or requested" by Charles or William Windsor, and what the response was. #timefortransparency #HandsOffOurLaws parliament.scot/-/media/file…

The "royal" archivists shouldn't "decide on an arbitrary basis what can be seen & what cannot. ...there should be a transparent process through which royal documents relating to state affairs are generally available." #timefortransparency #FollowTheFOIA theguardian.com/commentisfre…

The "Royal Archives" "span 250 years" yet "remain hidden (there is no catalogue available)" with access only for favoured writers. They're not legally "public records, even though so many are directly related to political affairs." #timefortransparency theage.com.au/world/europe/g…
