I chose my PhD research project very carefully because my goal was to equip myself for a career in the pharmaceutical industry. The project I chose was to synthesize and test in animal models a range of cardiotonic glycosides which might be safer than digoxin. Digoxin was (and is) widely used but has a fairly narrow therapeutic margin ie the difference between the safe effective clinical dose and the toxic dose was not far apart.
I linked up with Prof. Richard Thomas at the School of Pharmacy, Sydney University. Richard was already recognised as a world authority in the area of cardiotonic glycosides.
The project was successful and we identified a number of potentially useful novel glycosides which were shown to be effective but much safer than digoxin in animal models. Given this, I arranged to bring Prof. Thomas to present this data to a large weekly research meeting at the Merrell Dow head office in Cincinnati, Ohio where I hoped to spark some interest in the development of these glycosides. As it turned out, Merrell Dow had no corporate interest but the experience was highly interesting.
Following the scientific presentation, I was invited to a private meeting with the (then) President of Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals…..Donald Rumsfeld.
The reason why I am telling you this is because Donald Rumsfeld, better known as Secretary of Defense to two US Presidents, once expressed a self-evident thought which will withstand the test of time and is especially relevant to the times in which we now live. He said:
“…..because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don't know we don't know…..”

The shoddy development and reckless advocacy for the use of experimental gene-based so-called COVID “vaccines” for unqualified use in the entire world population (including healthy individuals, children, infants and pregnant women) is now producing a range and incidence of serious adverse effects and associated death never before seen in the pharmaceutical industry. The situation has been exacerbated by brainless and scientifically baseless vaccine mandates. The human damage within only 2 years of rollout of these failed “vaccines” has been incalculable.
However, the adverse events and reported deaths are only the short-term effects. We do not know what is before us…….the UNKNOWN UNKNOWNS. Although it may be difficult to fathom, it may get much worse. The incidence of neurological disease (dementia, Alzeheimer’s, Bell’s Palsy etc) and cancers are, by their very nature, potentially more long-term consequences.
There is no parallel in history. In the past, as few as a few dozen deaths linked to a new drug caused it to be withdrawn from the market. But now, literally hundreds of thousands of deaths reported to be linked to the COVID “vaccines”, massive hospitalisation numbers, miscarriages, heart attacks and strokes, have not attracted any drug regulatory action. Vaccine mandates are still in place and our government has still not conducted any credible risk-benefit analysis. It is astounding.
Our political leaders, with few exceptions, appear incapable of appreciating the gravity of the situation and, in fact, refuse to even question the advice of heavily conflicted so-called “health experts”. The carnage goes on, and on and on.
I predict this failure of our drug regulators will go down in history as a human catastrophe many orders of magnitude greater than anything seen previously. The alarm bells are ringing and those in charge are deaf.
Thank you for your educated, insightful, balanced, informed, courageous, essential contribution to ringing the alarm bells. Persistence will prevail. Truth will always out. Foremost are the often thankless messengers. Without them humanity would be lost. You are literally helping to save the world. We owe you.
We need leaders out of this catastrophe !
Many thanks for leading and the truth!
