Dr. Peter C Gøtzsche

We have a broken medical system. What documents this better than anything else is that our prescription drugs are the third leading cause of death, after heart disease and cancer. This would not be the case if drug regulators protected us against ineffective and harmful drugs. Furthermore, drug research in medical journals is often unreliable and doctors prescribe far too many drugs. On top of this, the COVID-19 pandemic has aggravated seriously the already existing scientific censorship, which has also been harmful.
