    You are now only talking about matters related to Covid and everything that is happening and has happened around it.
    I used to be a scientist myself and until my retirement in 2013 there was certainly no corruption in evidence-based medicine or products in the medical market that are used on patients and required an inspection or permission.
    My American colleagues often said when initiating a study: "First the animal experiments, then we try it on Canadians, then Europeans and only then on our own people.
    Covid has seriously deferred things, but that is mainly due to governments sowing fear among scientists who are afraid of no longer getting a "grand". This is distributed in our country by the same government through NWO programmes. (our system is always better than being dependent on lottery money)

      Corona has brought all kinds of things to light. The compromised system was really not set up in a few months, at the beginning of 2020. I absolutely believe that there are 'clean' bubbles of honest scientists, but anecdotality is unfortunately not the strongest form of evidence.

      That of those 'grants' (with a 't'; you may not have had much to do with it) is especially important in the US. The academic world is also creaking under financial dependencies in the Netherlands. As far as I am concerned, the problem here is mainly regulators and (government) institutes that should monitor things. Civil servants who are given a scientific status to support what their bosses (Ministries) are planning. Or 'independent' institutes (Lareb, EMA) that are financially dependent on the industry that they are supposed to keep short. It is an unhealthy situation.

      I would like to respond very briefly by citing the oxycodone scandal and associated lawsuits. This scandal took place well before corona, was based on shoving disturbing data under the carpet and outright lies about it. The result: hundreds of thousands of (indirect) fatalities and, above all, many billions in profit. No.. Pharmacy has known very large smelly rotten spots for much longer than today.
      It was at least thirty years ago that a large pharmaceutical company gave exorbitant, decadent parties every year at a castle in Limburg for doctors and other drug prescribers. These were regularly called forward to receive an award, because they had achieved the highest turnover in medicine x, y or z in the past year, especially psychopharmaceuticals I seem to remember. Legalized drug trafficking is my immodest opinion on this kind of practice. Both in the research phase (a la oxycodone) and in the distribution phase (parties).

    Dear Mr. Eggink, Your statement does not seem very convincing when looking at the place that medicines occupy on the list of main causes of death. Also the idea that there would be nothing wrong before 2013 may be your observation, but the damages that have been paid out after a long tug-of-war and then only to a part of the victims of medication use also speak a different language over the years. Your personal observation, regardless of whether it is correct, can certainly not be used as a standard, in my opinion. If reliable scientists are afraid, then especially of the influence of the sponsors.

    I quote from the above: "God forbid that a foreign power wants to gain influence in the Netherlands, because if it plays it cleverly, Hilversum will undoubtedly be at the forefront of getting the population on board. "

    Well that's exactly what's going on and has been for quite a long time. The EU is doing this to a very large extent. More and more control is flowing away to this. In the meantime, encouraged by the EU, incredible capital flows from EU savings countries to EU debtor countries. Without a penny changing hands. But the unprecedented and EU-driven inflation is exactly what leads to this involuntary and undemocratically achieved redistribution. Other dubiously enforced interventions are the international QR code, an undemocratic EU president who is waffling out of turn who wants to make forced vaccination a topic of discussion, and so on.

    Another party, although not a power and apparently not supported as such / openly by the media, is in my opinion the WEF. A very democracy-dangerous private society and very scary. Not themselves perhaps, but many of their ideas are well swallowed by the media. So much is now coming out about these people that I wonder why there is not yet a bunch of self-respecting investigative journalists making mincemeat of this scary club and its tentacles.

      I had first said "if the Germans come up with a plan again". Unfortunately, lessons from recent history are counterproductive, so I decided to make it more topical: "if a German comes up with a plan again". But I didn't do it either... The trends you identify are unmistakable.

    Very very good piece, Anton! Especially because it provides insight into how the corrupted pyramid could have come into being. After all, a rotten system is much more complex than just a bunch of grabbers who want the worst for humanity.

    As for Eggink's reaction about the absence of corruption until 2013. That is a completely demonstrable misrepresentation of the facts. As early as 2015, Richard Horton, editor-in-chief of The Lancet, stated "science has taken a dark turn". He found the level of the investigations abominable. That statement was confirmed by Marcia Angell; She called the level of the studies: "the sad state of peer-reviewed publication" and clarified this with the statement:

    'It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as an editor of the New England Journal of Medicine.'

    Dick Bijl, editor-in-chief of the Geneesmiddelenbulletin for many years, is just as pessimistic:
    He went through 25,000 scientific studies and what he read does not soothe him. So much sloppy research, flawed statistics, distorted results and hidden side effects that he has started to question the right to exist of many medicines.
    Samengevat: Ik zie de uitspraken van (hoofd)redacteuren van de meest gerenommeerde medical journals ter wereld als leidend. Daarmee ook de ultieme debunk van wat Eggink hierboven stelt.
