-The OBC interview with the Author-The most challenging part is reading all the fine print in all those studies, not just the abstracts, and here's why. Most medical research is funded directly and indirectly by the pharmaceutical industry. In order to keep their funding going, there is a need to stay within the guidelines, the dictated parameters, and to keep coloring inside the lines, so to speak. So the title and the abstract would often seem to praise vaccines, while the data shown in the fine print deep inside each of these papers very often contradict the title of the same paper, and very often show the dangers of the vaccines. So you have to read each one carefully, and then point out the actual results to the reader, often with screenshots and certainly with the citation to the paper as well as its sources.
While the author's concerns about the potential biases in pharmaceutical research are valid, it's important to note that focusing solely on findings that confirm one's pre-existing beliefs can also introduce bias. In this case, the naturopath’s strong stance against vaccination might lead her to highlight only those minor details from studies that appear to support her viewpoint, potentially giving these findings disproportionate attention. In a world where commercial interests heavily influence research and medical practices, it's crucial to strive for a balanced understanding, considering the overwhelming majority of scientific evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of vaccines, alongside any legitimate concerns. This underscores the complex interplay between commerce, medicine, and public health, necessitating a cautious approach to both consuming and interpreting scientific data.

Indeed, but her background does not make all the arguments and scientific studies she presented in the book disappear.Tomi Ahmed wrote: ↑05 May 2024, 12:09 A naturopathic doctor's opinion on the Covid-19 vaccine may be influenced by their training, beliefs, and experiences. Those with a background focused on natural medicine may prioritize holistic approaches and have varying views on vaccination compared to traditional medical practitioners. However, individuals within any profession can hold diverse perspectives, so it's essential to consider each doctor's unique stance.

It was the rush to market that Dr. Huber argues against. Those vaccines still have not been properly vetted. She is correct in her assumptions, according to worldwide documentation that she has assembled. I don’t think it has been influenced as much from her naturopathic background as it has by her knowledge of medicine.

But COVID-19 demanded action at a certain level of urgency, and without the vaccine, there certainly would have been more deaths.
I also believe almost all allopathic meds come with side effects. But I wonder, if naturopathy had a fool proof, tested 100% cure/ alternative within the said time frame.
