I believe in your fight Dr Kheriaty! Keep it up . My son chose to get vaccinated to attend classes at ucla and now he’s faced with a booster mandate ? We actually think he recovered from covid in February 2020 but he didn’t want to fight it with an exemption . My son who is 20 yo and very healthy with almost no risk of complications or death from covid needs to take a booster which does not even prevent infection or transmission. I am mad and feel so helpless but see glimmers of hope with your ongoing battle. May God help all of us.

Great article, and yes, you do need to work on your tv smile. It does scream college professor. 😂🤷‍♀️ I’m having flashbacks to undergrad right now.

It’s ok to at least laugh at the absurdity of the time we are living in. Think about what will be said in 30 years in high school biology when discussing this time.

“The already naturally immune were told they weren’t immune ‘enough.’ Politicians and people called ‘woke’ at the time demanded numerous doses of these drugs even for the already naturally immune. This was pushed even after it became clear nearly all effectiveness was gone within 9 months of the 1st shot. The public health community insisted these people with natural immunity were ‘less immune’ than those who got the 2 shots and later 3 shots, all in the first 12 months of the ‘mass vaccination’ campaign. It didn’t appear to sway anyone in public health at the time that those who were ‘vaccinated’ but not naturally immune continued catching and spreading the virus. Within 12 months, the ‘vaccinated’ were spreading the virus at far higher per capita rates than the unvaccinated.

The public health response to the news the shots prevented neither infection or spread was to tell people to get more shots, despite the terrible side effect profile, and regardless of their natural immunity or health related risk level from the actual virus, which was mild for most and negligible in children. Many were needlessly injured by the shots as nearly everyone had recovered from some variant of the virus by two years from the first poorly conceived economic shutdowns.

This is why, a decade later, big pharma funding was finally removed from public health, and high legal standards put in place to remove any real, or even perceived, conflict of financial interest between those in public health and the big pharmaceutical companies who stand to profit handsomely from the recommendations of public health.”

Ok, so the last part is clearly just wishful thinking at this point, but should be a longer term goal for all of us.

You should write a letter for your kids to get published 3 decades from the anniversary of your firing - and get a big grin knowing how ridiculous this whole societal response will seem by that time.

As a mom of a young daughter, and the proud mother of two kids who (along with their dad and my husband) have blood relatives still trapped in Cuba, I’ve learned to laugh at the absurdity of statements made these days. It’s ridiculous to claim men can believe their way to being “real” women. It ridiculous to claim judging in skin tone and/ or re-segregation will ever result in an “anti-racist” society. The absurdity of all of it is completely ridiculous, not withstanding the seriousness of the very real harm all this insanity is causing.

Still, I hope one can be both completely serious and still step back and laugh at the absurdity of it all. Only having sadness and frustration in life, even if justified, is no way to live. Plus, humor may end up being our key to escape……….
