Science is also being discredited by the complete lack of any willingness to study the cause of the massive increase in excess deaths since a certain medication was virtually forced on the population.

The raw milk thing is SOLELY about the freedom to make your own decisions. That's it. Whether you are for or against raw milk yourself is neither here nor there. Are you for or against freedom?!
I drank raw milk for at least a year with no problems and have good health. It was only halted when someone had problems with it and took ill so they hounded the dairy. Making it do numerous tests and they had to throw out numerous milk batches so that in the end they gave up. I think the way dairies produce raw milk is probably better quality than processed milk and is certainly better for you. They couldn’t prove that the milk was at fault and it could have been any other things that were eaten or drank.
I mean, sure, there's a small risk attached to raw milk. But there's also a small risk attached to cycling, skiing, swimming, sunbathing. It doesn't mean those things should be banned.
I would love to see Mr Ridley debate RFK Jr on COVID, the mRNA "vaccines", and vaccines in general. NO ONE FROM BIG PHARMA, THE NIH, CDC, FDA, OR ACADEMIC MEDICINE HAS EVER ACCEPTED HIS CHALLENGES TO DO SO. I wonder why.
On March 24, 2020, Dr Jay Bhattacharya co-wrote an opinion piece in The Wall Street Journal entitled "Is the Coronavirus as Deadly as They Say?", which argued there was little evidence to support shelter-in-place orders and quarantines of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Is he scientist?
The mainstream media needs to interview him and Dr. Robert Malone. Malone is one of the fist MDs to alert the public of the problems with the COVID-19 vaccine. He has been contracted with the DOD regarding his knowledge/expertise in vaccines and virology. I believe he has had professional associations with Dr. Anthony in the past as well. Contact your Senator to support the nomination of Kennedy for HHS Secretary if you think he is a good choice. This is a once in a lifetime chance to make real change in our Public Health system. I've waited for this for 4 decades. It may be our best and last chance.
He recommended we pursue herd immunity before we had a vaccine and was vague about how we would prevent old people and people with comorbidities from being infected and killed.
You know I will always remember the data out of south africa when omnicron swept through there in a population with a high unvax'd rate and barely left a blip on the radar.

I am not advocating for or against childhood vaccines, but here is some interesting information I've discovered. The UK, Ireland, Switzerland, Spain, Austria, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Sweden, Norway. Finland, Portugal and others do not mandate vaccination for childhood school admission. Childhood vaccines are voluntary in these counties. All these countries have less chronic disease than the US. We are a very sick, unhealthy country in comparison. The children of these countries eat better quality food with hundreds of fewer toxins than the US. They score higher in math and science than the average US children. The education rankings of US children pales in comparison to most western industrialized nations.
@stephengreen9720 High sugar, high carbohydrate diet. Portion sizes too large, lack of exercise. Childhood obesity in USA is one of the highest in the world. As they grow up they continue that lifestyle.
@@EyeByBrian What do you do or have you done for work or study? I recommend that you take your own advice. Correlation CAN equal causation! Correlation positive or negative should have prompted regulators, researchers, etc. to investigate further. I am not implying causation here. However, information like this is interesting for a number of reasons. One reason might be that other countries find solutions that are different than the US, and they achieve better outcomes than the US. Are the public health systems in Switzerland, or the Netherlands, etc. filled with "Anti-vaxers," or "Science Deniers", because they don't mandate vaccines? Should the public health authorities in country X, be considered "Conspiracy Theorists" for not allowing Roundup (glyphosate) sprayed on their food crops? Why doesn't the US rank as high in education or health as many other countries? Could there be a link between what we eat and educational performance? Why are US public health policies achieving such poor results? Why did the US have about the worse COVID outcomes of any industrialized nation, even though our vaccination rate was higher than many nations? Why is the wealthiest country in history performing so poorly in all these areas? If the US were a football team, the head coach, the assistant coach, special teams coordinator, the defense coach, the offensive coordinator, etc. would probably be fired for coming in 32nd place, for the 10th year in a row! That team is not performing and needs new coaching and new approaches.
Freedom of bodily autonomy and informed consent, from vaccines to raw milk is not a conspiracy. RFK Jr is about the freedom to ask questions and the right to demand further testing from tax- funded agencies without being slandered as a "conspiracy theorist."
So sad that such a “logical” academic can totally disregard the proper safety testing of medical products and the removal of liability for something he so nonchalantly advocates as safe and effective.
Totally agree. He has no empirical evidence in this discussion. He even said that although children weren't affected by Covid but didn't disagree with children having the untested vaccine. He contradicted himself completely. This guy is clueless. He sounds confident but has no clue.
For those who take the position that Kennedy is not qualified for HHS Secretary, here are some well qualified medical professionals, scientists, virologists, biologists, medical researchers, etc. that support most of his public health positions and may also support his nomination: Dr. Robert Malone, Dr. Robert Redfield, Dr. Suneel Dhand, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr. Casey and Calley Means, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, Dr. Heather Heying, Dr. Vinay Prasad, Dr. John Campbell, Dr. Bret Weinstein, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, etc. There are many more credentialed professionals that may also support Kennedy that can be added to the list. During this video, Matt Ridley (writer) and admits he has no special expertise on this heath care issue. Why not invite health professionals as guests with opposing positions so we the audience have a better deeper understanding of Kennedy's potential influence on the public health of America?

Quite disappointed Matt - with your background of research I would hope u'd comment on topics u'd looked deeply into & not be drawn on topics you've not 😕
Excellent. Matt Ridley, the voice of reason and quite persuasive. His work has clear ideas, properly explained and with reference to evidence both statistical and anecdotal.
New Study shows that Strokes have increased by more than 50% in the past year in the UK. It's not just the UK, but there we have data. We need comprehensive studies that look at variables such as how many Strokes occurred in those who took the COVID vaccines, vs those who did not.
Matt just said that the scientific establishment has been corrupted by money. So in what way are people that disagree with the various positions of the scientific establishment "conspirators". The whole point of science is disagreement.
This interesting discussion should be continued to consider why many, highly respected, medical researchers, statisticians, pathologists, Oncologists etc. (e.g. Dr. Robert Malone, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, Pierre Kory, Prof Angus Dalgleish, to name but a few), were shut down on Social Media, ridiculed and maligned in many publications and had their careers and reputations severely damaged for speaking out about this. Maybe they are all wrong but when these highly respected individuals (or “fringe cranks”), are gagged and treated so appallingly, conspiracy theories will flourish.
'The current fad for focussing on process food is a mistake'...I so it is all the fault of carbohydrates responsible for obesity and all digestive related health conditions and not easy access to instant gratification.
Matt Ridley is a wise and thoughtful man. He does not make outlandish claims that cannot be substantiated unlike so many in politics and the media these days. His arguments are rational and nuanced. An excellent and informative interview.
If Fauci wants to narrow the definition of gain of function, as is correctly pointed out, that would lead to new misunderstandings between people who talk about it, when some are awre and some are not of recent changes to definitions. Same is true for the vaccination aspect, there was added a bit as of somewhat recent as well, right?!
There were lots of mistakes made during the first couple of years of covid. When the vaccines first came out there was this idea that once you got it you wouldn't get covid. But that bubble soon burst, as the degree of protection over time was better understood and as newer strains of covid spread. The herd immunity concept, and the idea that once you got covid you were out of the woods were also dealt a reality check by, well, reality. Yes, inflamation in the heart is a concern, but is much more serious with covid,, although the vast majority of cases resolve, and if you have covid and are not vaccinated there are other, ore likely issues of concern. There is not evidence for widespread covid vaccine harm but many who took up this banner cannot adimit that, somethimes because it's their way of making a living. The vaccines actually appear to be a success, saving millions of lives worldwide, but in retrospect they were pushed too hard, and people should be allowed to get sicker if that's their choice. NIH data, and other sources show the benefit of the vaccines. For example, in the US, counties with greater than 80% vaccine rate had 30% lower covid cases and 46% lowerr deaths than counties iwth 50% or lower vaccination rates. RFK Jr simply cannot admit things like this, and instead has to fabricate stories that fit with a narrative that while having pockets of truth, would be dangerous to let loose on the public.
I would like to know how long these guys have had these views. Have they been talking like this for a while or are they trying to get ahead of the curve now that RFK could be about to expose a whole lot of whoppers?
All this so-called expert needs to do is challenge one of the thousands of links Kennedy provides in his book, 'The Real Anthony Fauci". He can "disagree" but without challenging the sources in the book, it's just an opinion.
Very interesting interview. What has happened to Freddy, lately. In the last two appearance of him I have seen, one about Trump and the US Election Night and this one, he wears this disconcerting facial expression, almost as though he has just defecated into his underpants, or is attempting to do so. Perhaps I just failed to notice it before. I hope he is alright. ❤
You are missing two major points. Firstly to underplay processed food is tragic. You are what you eat. Stand in a high street anywhere in the UK. We are disabled, fat, immobile, sedentary and sick. We have to start taking responsibility for our own health and stop eating shit and then expecting a doctor to somehow reverse the damage you did by prescribing a drug. Secondly US children get 72 individual shots of vaccine es. They are compulsory. UK children get 25. Not a single vaccine on either childhood schedule has ever been tested against a genuine placebo. Never. And how are our kids doing on these wonderful medical miracles. Not well. No research has ever been done on the effect these vaccines have as a whole. No trials have ever been done to compare vaccinated to unvaccinated. Why? There is no way RFK is going to be allowed to get into this in an official capacity! The big corporations will not allow their flow of money to stop.
There was only downside risk for healthy kids to take the weird serum, there was no upside, just the chance (however remote) something bad could happen, nothing good!! Coupled with that it was deemed "free", yes it was free at the point of sale but actually it was hugely expensive and added to an already massive debt of which the principle will very likely never be paid down, so we a left with a giant compounding interest payment for infinity, would have been better off just getting everyone to pay £20

All this so-called expert needs to do is challenge one of the thousands of links Kennedy provides in his book, 'The Real Anthony Fauci". He can "disagree" but without challenging the sources in the book, it's just an opinion.
Very interesting interview. What has happened to Freddy, lately. In the last two appearance of him I have seen, one about Trump and the US Election Night and this one, he wears this disconcerting facial expression, almost as though he has just defecated into his underpants, or is attempting to do so. Perhaps I just failed to notice it before. I hope he is alright. ❤
I think he always looks a bit startled
This guy is actually fairly objective
When Trump lifted the Obama moretorium, was it to make way for the development of Omicron? The famous 'heaven sent' salvation of mankind.
Can’t watch. Biased. What’s Kookie about him?
You are missing two major points. Firstly to underplay processed food is tragic. You are what you eat. Stand in a high street anywhere in the UK. We are disabled, fat, immobile, sedentary and sick. We have to start taking responsibility for our own health and stop eating shit and then expecting a doctor to somehow reverse the damage you did by prescribing a drug. Secondly US children get 72 individual shots of vaccine es. They are compulsory. UK children get 25. Not a single vaccine on either childhood schedule has ever been tested against a genuine placebo. Never. And how are our kids doing on these wonderful medical miracles. Not well. No research has ever been done on the effect these vaccines have as a whole. No trials have ever been done to compare vaccinated to unvaccinated. Why? There is no way RFK is going to be allowed to get into this in an official capacity! The big corporations will not allow their flow of money to stop.
There was only downside risk for healthy kids to take the weird serum, there was no upside, just the chance (however remote) something bad could happen, nothing good!! Coupled with that it was deemed "free", yes it was free at the point of sale but actually it was hugely expensive and added to an already massive debt of which the principle will very likely never be paid down, so we a left with a giant compounding interest payment for infinity, would have been better off just getting everyone to pay £20

These guys are so dumb
fail
Spectator became a msm, thanks anti trump stances and snobism.
you realise the msm has changed, msm is now X + TikTok & the DM. This is legacy media sane analysis.
I've refered PRESTITUTE TRADITIONAL MEDIA
Matt Ridley the English RFK jr
@@nottooherbal well hardly. Like all Brits, he can't grasp the extent of corporate capture and perverse insentives, basically legalized bribery, that exists in the USA, and which RFKjr is going to try to dismantle (if they let him).
The last gasps of a dying medium, unable to sustain itself without corporation intervention in an information age when ‘facts’ are available to us all.
What waffle.
