‘Pharmageddon' Documentary Addresses Pharmaceutical Industry Concerns
'Pharmageddon,' a provocative documentary directed by Donal O'Neill and produced by British cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra, was launched recently on the sidelines of the Cannes Film Festival. The film, which builds on O'Neill and Malhotra's previous release 'First Do No Pharm,' assembles a roster of voices including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Dr. Fiona Godlee, Jay Bhattacharya MD and Dr. Vandana Shiva. It delves into the pharmaceutical industry and the rise of diet-related diseases. At the Cannes presentation at the Carlton Hotel, which featured the film's official poster and first-look footage, Malhotra — who serves as chief medical officer for the 'Make America Healthy Again' initiative and contributed to the MAHA report released May 22 — participated in a Q&A session. 'We have a pandemic of misinformed doctors and unwittingly harmed patients,' Malhotra told the Carlton Hotel audience. 'Medical knowledge is under commercial control, and the benefits of drugs are grossly exaggerated. 'Pharmageddon' is our fight to reclaim truth and prioritize patient health over profits.' The documentary addresses over-medication, Covid vaccines, and dietary myths. The film explores the influence of big pharma and advocates for a healthier, less medicated world. The filmmakers describe 'Pharmageddon' as more than a film, calling it a movement to redefine healthcare. Director O'Neill said, 'After years of censorship, 'Pharmageddon' is our chance to break through. We're ready to work with Hollywood and the new administration to turn the page on a broken system. If you can give us wings, please do.' Executive producer Bhuvan Lall said that the film is targeting a worldwide theatrical release in September.

Chief Medical Advisor Demands mRNA COVID Jab Moratorium
British cardiologist and author Dr. Aseem Malhotra, the newly appointed Chief Medical Advisor to the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) initiative, says there is 'overwhelming evidence' to ban the COVID-19 mRNA shots. Dr. Malhotra is a former U.K. government and long-time ally of MAHA leaders like HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK Jr.) and NIH head Dr. Jay Bhattacharya. He's campaigned for taxes on sugary drinks, worked to lower the amount of Brits taking statins unnecessarily, and worked with government leaders to remove ultraprocessed foods from hospitals and schools, per The Daily Mail. Though Malhotra is not formally employed by the federal government, he will serve as a leading voice of the movement and work closely with grassroots groups to advance its policy agenda. In a Wednesday Twitter/X post, the British best-selling author (@DrAseemMalhotra) left no question where he stands on the COVID jab. 'It's what you've been waiting for,' he wrote. 'There is OVERWHELMING evidence to call for a moratorium on the mRNA covid jabs & help the vaccine injured. Let it rip.' Click here to read more…

US health advisor's vaccine views ‘wrong and dangerous'
For our most recent episode of the Fourcast we've been speaking to controversial British cardiologist Aseem Malhotra, who was recently appointed as a senior advisor to the US Health Secretary. That makes him one of Robert F Kennedy Junior's most influential medical advisers, and that's alarming doctors and academics around the world. Dr Malhotra has made various disputed claims about heart disease, but most contentiously he has called for the MRNA Covid vaccine to be suspended, saying it does more harm than good. We've scrutinised those claims and have spoken to Stephen Griffon, a professor of virology, who believes Dr Malhotra's views are not just wrong but dangerous. Professor Griffon spoke to Krishnan Guru Murphy about whether the Covid vaccine COULD be linked to heart inflammation.
