Cancer Corruption

From the LA Times…August 5, 2019

“Powerful drug magnates are sitting on the Board of Directors of major Cancer Hospitals and Research Centers. What happens, in effect, is that you have a closed circle of people who are, on the one hand, directors of the world’s largest Cancer Centers, on the other hand; they are either officers or directors of the very companies that are producing the drugs which are used by these centers. There are  many, many ways that the drug industry influences the direction of cancer research.”

From…Suppressed Inventions & Other Discoveries by Jonathan Eisen…copyright 1999.

“Ralph Moss is perhaps the best medical journalist in the United States today. His book, The Cancer Industry, uncovered the corruption of the second most profitable business in the twentieth century; cancer. His latest book, Questioning Chemotherapy, is also a gem. Moss is very persuasive, although it may not take a genius to realize that if powerful drug magnates are sitting on the Board of Directors of major Cancer Hospitals and Research Centers; it will be difficult, if not impossible, to get any favorable results for non-pharmaceutical therapies.“

Author’s Note

To this day workable, testable, alternatives to corporate medicine are not recognized by a system that is geared to maximize the profits of a pharmaceutical/medical establishment.
