Your Government Doesn’t Care about Your Health

Video Transcript:

The medical establishment will always take decisions on health matters which benefit industry, government and the medical profession rather than patients and the government will always take decisions on health matters which benefit the state rather than individual patients. What they decide will always have more to do with the requirements of the pharmaceutical industry and the government than the genuine needs of patients. The pharmaceutical industry has been separated from authority with disastrous consequences for patients. Your chances of getting the best treatment for your condition depend not upon your needs, but upon a whole range of factors such as political correctness, expediency and, as I explained in Coleman's seventh law of medicine, fashion. For something uncivilized and inhuman about a health system in which patients with suspected cancer must wait and wait to be diagnosed and then wait and wait to be treated, hoping that they won't die on one of the waiting lists. The way patients are chosen for treatment is appallingly cruel and quite indefensible. Next our governments and doctors have allowed the environment and our food to be poisoned by chemical companies, farmers and others involved in serving our communities. Humans in our environment are now one of the most significant modern causes of illness in general and of cancer in particular. As a result of contaminants in our food, drinking water and the air we breathe, human breast milk contains so many chemical contaminants that it couldn't possibly be sold as safe for human consumption. Human bodies contain so many chemicals, some consumed in additives and pesticide contaminated food and some acquired accidentally from our polluted environment that a human steak would never be passed fit for consumption by cannibals. Children's bodies are routinely contaminated with scores of potentially hazardous chemicals. The susceptibility of the young body and the wide availability of toxic chemicals in the surroundings in which children live mean that those as young as nine years old have far more toxic substance in their bodies than their grandparents ever had. In sets and plastic toys, the odour and sown household cleansers are all sources of poisons. As of course, the pesticides we use in our gardens and the pesticides farmers use in our food. I don't use pesticides in our garden, by the way. Some carcinogenic industrial chemicals which have been banned can still be found in the environment back in 1930, just one million tons of man-made chemicals were produced globally each year. The chemical companies now produce hundreds of millions of tons of man-made chemicals a year. When researchers tested ordinary citizens, they found that of 104 substances for which they tested, 80 were present in human beings. Those tests are often repeated with much the same results. Chemicals are in our air, our water and our food. The chemicals found in the average human body can cause liver cancer, damage to the developing brain, premature birth, genital abnormalities, bladder cancer, kidney damage, asthma, skin disorders, humour, hormone disruption and a higher risk of miscarriage. There's not enough safety information available about nearly 90% of the two and a half thousand chemicals which manufacturers regularly use in large quantities to enable scientists or doctors to do a basic safety assessment. When chemicals are tested, they're tested on animals. If the tests show that a chemical kills animals, the tests will be ignored on the grounds that animals are so different to humans that the results are irrelevant and manufacturers will be allowed then to use the chemical as much as they like. Do you think I'm joking? Or being unjulecynical? I'm not, I'm being deadly serious. Drug companies follow the same, we can't lose trickery when testing drugs for human consumption. There's no doubt at all that many of the chemicals widely used in the preparation of food, the feeding of animals and the manufacture of a wide variety of goods, a carcinogenic. But what do doctors do about this? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Then there's the scandal of our drinking water in towns and cities, drinking water is often taken from rivers and guess what? Sewage firms dump their treated waste into the same rivers, but they can't remove drug residues from the water so when you turn on the tap, you get all bits of contraceptive or antibiotic and tranquilizer in your nice sparkling glass of apparently clean drinking water. You can't see the drug residues of course and the water companies can't get them out. Governments have of course made things worse by adding fluoride to drinking water supplies. The theory is that if people drink water dose with fluoride they'll be less likely to suffer from dental decay. In practice fluorides are dangerous, potentially dangerous substance on this practice is fraught with danger. As part of a school science project, a 12 year old American girl collected ice samples from five restaurants. She also collected toilet water samples from the same restaurants. She had all the samples tested for bacteria in several cases the ice from the restaurants contained E. coli bacteria and was dirtier than the water taken from the toilet bowls. How did the bugs get into the ice? Probably because the ice making machines hadn't been cleaned and because the restaurant staff had used hands which hadn't been washed to scoop up the ice. The moral is a simple one you should avoid ice in bars and restaurants. The first question is why did it take a 12 year old girl to expose this sort of contamination? The second question is has anything been done about it? That's a rhetorical question to which both you and I know the answer. Doctors exist only for two reasons to look after people who've acquired their disease and to prevent healthy people from falling ill. That's it. The rest is unimportant. But today's medical profession has been bright by drug companies bullied by and overwhelmed by bureaucrats and social workers and forced by politicians to abandon most of their ethical principles, including for example the traditional principle of confidentiality. Through the weakness of their leaders, doctors have been turned into ethically impoverished mercenaries. Models should be indigestible but the modern medical profession has swallowed its principles without hesitation or regret. It is perhaps hardly surprising that many doctors now hate their jobs and regard them as little more than a way of making money. Many doctors would prefer to do something else in a living if they could find anything as lucrative. Vocation has been abandoned and replaced by expediency. Medicine used to be a proud and independent profession. Sadly, much of the modern medical professions now little more than the marketing arm for the pharmaceutical industry and a snitch service for the government. And I'm afraid things are likely to get worse rather than better. Unless and until we force governments and doctors to recognize and remember that people, patients must come first.
