BARTIROMO: This week, the Department of Health and Human Services reported it will spend more than $3 billion on developing and manufacturing antiviral treatments to treat COVID-19. … So, does this boil down to money then, Dr. Kory?
I mean, this drug made by Merck, ivermectin, is off-patent. They’re not making any money on it anymore. But now Fauci says he’s looking at a drug that’s going to be a patented drug made by Merck. Aren’t the underlying chemicals the same? So now they’re going to have that on patent, so that they can make a huge profit on it?
‘Sunday Morning Futures’ on impact of censorship in fight against COVID-19
This is a rush transcript from “Sunday Morning Futures,” June 20, 2021. …
MARIA BARTIROMO, FOX NEWS ANCHOR …
This week, the Department of Health and Human Services reported it will spend more than $3 billion on developing and manufacturing antiviral treatments to treat COVID-19.
In fact, Anthony Fauci was quoted as saying pills taken at home to treat COVID would be a powerful tool in our effort to prevent death from COVID.
But, to date, more than 600,000 Americans have already died in the last year. Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson was among the first to question why certain medicines were being ignored or criticized to treat COVID-19.
He joins me right now, along with Dr. Pierre Kory, an infectious disease specialist whose testimony before Senator Johnson’s committee was censored by Google’s YouTube. …
DR. PIERRE KORY, CRITICAL CARE AND PULMONARY MEDICINE SPECIALIST: Thank you. …
SEN. RON JOHNSON (R-WI): … And, Maria, you have to understand that Dr. Fauci, people in the health industries, the media, the social media, they will never admit they were wrong on this, because, if they do, they’re going to have to admit that literally hundreds of hundreds of people didn’t have to lose their lives, but for their censorship, their arrogance, and Dr. Fauci’s mismanagement.
BARTIROMO: Dr. Kory, walk us through ivermectin.
KORY: Yes, so that’s correct.
I mean, that — they do not make money off of ivermectin anymore. That’s an old drug. Many, many different manufacturers make it. Briefly, that is one of the oldest and safest drugs we have. It’s been given all around the world for decades, four billion doses.
That testimony that you played that I gave in December, the evidence was convincing then. It’s now overwhelming. Just yesterday, a paper by some of the top researchers in the world concluded that ivermectin leads to a massive reduction in the amount of patients who are dying. We’re getting reports from all over the world from Mexico that put it into their public health policy that huge numbers of patients are avoiding hospitalization and death in Argentina and in certain states in India.
We know it’s working. It’s working around the world. And nobody in the United States is hearing about it.
BARTIROMO: So, does this boil down to money then, Dr. Kory?
I mean, this drug made by Merck, ivermectin, is off-patent. They’re not making any money on it anymore. But now Fauci says he’s looking at a drug that’s going to be a patented drug made by Merck. Aren’t the underlying chemicals the same? So now they’re going to have that on patent, so that they can make a huge profit on it?
KORY: Well, that’s — I mean, that is so clearly — it’s a glaring example of the system that we’re in, which is that for-profit medicines are favored, to almost the total exclusion of nonprofit medicines.
And, by the way Maria, if it weren’t for FOX Nation, if you had to rely on YouTube, this segment right here would be censored immediately on YouTube. Think of that.
The other thing that Dr. Fauci and the media is ignoring right now is the early warning signals of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System. We have close to 5,000 deaths, over 1,700 within days zero, one and two of getting vaccinated. We have thousands of people with permanent disabilities, 20,000 hospitalizations.
And that, quite honestly, compares to less than 200 deaths per year through the entire 30-year history of the VAERS system with other vaccines. They’re not paying attention. They are suppressing this information, and the American people are paying the price. …
BARTIROMO: And real quick on the paper that was dropped last night, what do you want to say about what we learned from this white paper from the science in terms of ivermectin?
KORY: I mean, they reviewed dozens of randomized controlled trials. And in the most accurate statistical analysis, they’re estimating that 62 percent less death would occur.
And that’s the minimum of ivermectin is capable of, because not all of them were early treatment. Again, the key is early. …
If they had done what Mexico did, over 100,000 American lives would have been saved. And around the world, if they’d followed our lead, we’re talking about over a million lives, based just on that paper. …
BARTIROMO: … Your thoughts on what has taken place here in terms of the censorship?
JOHNSON: Well, first of all, the truth has been hiding in plain sight since the beginning of the pandemic.
And so it’s difficult to explain the collusion, the corruption of media, social media. It was all about the election. It was all about politicizing the campaign. The fact of the matter is, hundreds of thousands of people lost their lives because of the politicization of COVID.
And I would personally much rather put my faith in doctors like Dr. Kory, Dr. McCullough, Dr. Fareed that also testified before my committee, these doctors that have the courage and compassion to actually treat patients. …
BARTIROMO: I was looking at a research report from Morgan Stanley. And Morgan Stanley is estimating that Pfizer could earn $100 billion from vaccines, OK, in the next five years, $100 billion from vaccines.
Now, I just have to point out that, had we had other treatments early on in the pandemic, that would have negated the opportunity to use emergency use authorization.
Isn’t that true, Dr. Kory?
JOHNSON: It is true.
KORY: Yes, that is — it is absolutely true that — and that may be one of the reasons why these alternative early treatments were suppressed.
