That's pretty funny... A toxic drug, remdesevir had a recall for glass.

Can't make this shit up!

Meanwhile they still pretend like remdesevir is a good treatment and still use it, harming people.

Thank you Tessa.🙏

Regarding the eye drops I think there is more to the story. This comes on the heels of them lying to smear erythritol sugar and lying to boost sales and glamorize unhealthy sucralose sugar. I think they were looking for any possible way to shut these eye drops down because they contain stem cells. Eye drop bottles themselves may become contaminated by improper use and storage. Im not saying it isnt true but right now FDA is cracking down on natural therapies.

Erythritol sugar is made by us naturally in our bodies via the penrose phosphate pathway after eating fructose. It may be a protective to help prevent blood clots and more. Many studies have been done on the potential healing properties of erythritol. It acts as an antioxidant. A recent article claimed because erythritol is found in the blood of obese people this meant it causes blood clots and heart attacks. It sounds a lot like the new alzheimers debacle where they recently found the tangles in the brains of alzheimers we consider the "cause of alzheimere" are actually our bodies protective, antimicrobial response to brain infection. They do not cause alzheimers.

Meanwhile fake sucralose causes immunodeficiency. At the same time they smeared erythritol they came out with articles recommending sucralose as a good sugar because some people with autoimmune conditions might benefit. Damaging the immune system has never before been recommended and pushed onto the entire world.

Thanks for this one. (Don't get me started on commercial dog food....)

The other day I was making an organic greens salad and even though it said “triple washed and ready to serve”, I washed the greens anyway. Because, apparently, I trust what it says on labels less than gas station sushi.

When I worked at the Cleveland Clinic my boss’s husband worked at Ben Venue pharmaceutical plant. She told me her husband was full of horror stories of unsanitary conditions and safety violations. The plant was notorious. Finally shuttered but then went through other permutations within the pharma industry while city officials cheered the job opportunities. If this is happening in America I shudder to think what’s going on at pharmaceutical plants in China since that is where most prescription drugs are manufactured nowadays. https://www.fiercepharma.com/m-a/boehringer-ingelheim-gives-up-on-troubled-ben-venue-plant-laying-off-1-100

Reading about the eye drops made me thankful that I make my own for dry eyes, as well as medicated. Gross

I was a health inspector for L.A. County. I have stories.

In 1967 the L.A. Health Department deputized me and gave me a badge to show for inspections. It looked just like a cop’s badge, but in very small letters it read: Sanitarian. Not accidentally, I replaced inspector ID with my driver’s license. Thereafter, whenever I got stopped by the law, I’d show license with badge.

Over 9 years I was probably stopped 10 or more times for speeding or running a stop sign. All but one-time cops let me walk when they saw the badge. One time, I flagrantly pulled into the emergency lane and passed a mile or so of cars to get off at an exit ahead. I got caught, but when the officer saw the badge, he let me off. As he walked away, he asked if I was a Marshal. When I admitted I was a health inspector, he said, “well then, you can get a ticket!”. But, since he was already walking away, he let me go. Whew, close call!

The only time I got a ticket with the badge was in Long Beach when I rolled through a stop at 2nd and Redondo. A grizzled, old motorcycle cop pulled me over. I showed him my badge. He took one quick look and said “I don’t care, you’re getting a ticket anyway”. There are a few honest cops out there…but not that many. Fortunately, for my own scandalous self.

It's a big club and you ain't in it. GC

Yep. 🤔 Also kind of reinforces the concept that our collective germophobia is a tad pointless! People freaking out about the odd "scary" virus, while literally crawling with trillions of other virae and microorganisms, but they are totally ok with the 900+ chemicals in the food and body are products that are toxic over long term exposure, yet got "grandfathered" in because science says "GRAS". So all good.

If the natural world was so heinously dangerous or sickening to us, how did we get here? Rhetorically, 🤨 it's the world created through industry, that's toxic to us. Is that perhaps why the natural world is being systematically demonized and we are taught to fear it?🤔😐🤨😑🤦‍♀️

I have felt since 9/11, the invasion of Iraq, the 2008/9 crash and Covid that I was living in a bubble of sorts separate from these things... ie my willingness to do research and find out things the media wasn't telling us. Thank you for your work Tessa. I wrote this article to account for the excess deaths in the 25-44 age group- "Covid" v non-Covid. https://turningpointnews.org/corona-virus-reports/what-has-been-causing-a-huge-increase-in-the-number-of-deaths

The Whole Foods fiasco is very typical of commercial food production. I'm assuming (because I never worked for the company) that it is very pressurized at every step, owned as it is by Bezos who is not known for his kindness to employees. I'll bet anything that, for example, the person caught not changing gloves was likely not given time to do so properly and/or given an insufficient number of gloves to make do with. The people cited also might not have been properly trained as I suspect the facility probably has a pretty high turnover like many industrial/corporate food establishments. There are food processing plants near where I live. They require 12 hour shifts and go 24/7. I'm sure personal quality control goes out the door past something like 6 or 8 hours into a graveyard shift.

thanks for the fda recall page - very interesting :) it seems to cut both ways. i.e. this company who either forgot to pay their bribe or paid later maybe? https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/correction-notice-new-hampshire-laboratory-error-incorrectly-resulted-recall-lef-farms-spice

In 2018, a John Hopkins study claimed 250,000 people in the US die each year from medical error. I'll assume that since the scamdemic that statistic has more than anually doubled.

Was watching a History Channel series on the Men Who Made America, the big manufacturers. They didn't want Wm Bryant a reformer Democrat, so bought William McKinley, nullifying Teddy Roosevelt by having McKinley choosing him as VP. Things stayed the same, till McKinley was assassinated. TR became the President, he used subterfuge to get the Meat Packers to stop using diseased meats. Pushed for better pay and housing for workers. Where he went wrong he turned into a leftist in the Bullmoose Party.

They are back to their old ways again. Bought a whole chicken a few months ago, missing an entire wing. Which was hidden in the packaging. You can no longer rely on the USDA OR FDA.
