Prasad has been straddling the fence for a decade. He knows the story but has been fundamentally dishonest. His book Ending Medical Reversal: Improving Outcomes, Saving Lives is disingenuous for such an intellect and vastly understates healthcare corruption issues. Since I retired, I could be more frank in my Butchered by "Healthcare" (see amazon). 150 five star reviews.

I agree 100%.

Perhaps he is young, trusting, and naive. He is trying to make a name for himself - who could fault him.

Sometimes he appears to acknowledge corruption by referring to “grievously flawed studies” but then at other times he misuses the “not enough studies or data” card. He seems to be unaware of the censorship that comes with the corruption that has metastasized throughout academia and the preferential funding which promotes certain hypotheses over others.

Wish we could come to the dinner instead of being trapped in a beautiful yet deep blue state full of paranoid Cult of Covid people.

Sadly, he is so proud of how left wing he is...touts it all the time. I have upbraided him more than once on his "masks are bioplausible although there is no evidence whatsoever that they work" as being a complete cop out. (It is like saying the sun circling the earth is geoplausible...yes it is, but it is not true.) He does have a difficult straddle position, though, and is so much more honest then his peers (Monica Gandhi, anyone?) that, netted up, I think he has contributed more than most.
