Dear Dr. Malone, Thanks for your continued efforts to expose the issues in medicine that are corrupting the medical model. The latest is that Lilly is going to tele push their weight loss drug directly to the consumer, and that Pfizer has announced similar efforts. In addition, Amazon is pushing statin drugs directly to the consumer. All by passing the traditional Physician, Pharmacist Patient model. I am interested in knowing if AAPS will be addressing this issue? If pharmacists are by passed, is the physician next and AI will determine drug treatment based on numbers? Important issues that needs to be examined now. Having been in a pharmacist for over 60 years, I have never seen a Rx weight loss product that has worked or not done great harm. the latest's being pushed have a reported side effect of causing inflammation of the the retinal cells and the potential for loss of eye sight. Now Lilly is by passing all safe guards. Drug Marketing has trumped good medicine for decades and the Covid con was their best effort and they are not slowing down. After WWII Medical costs were at 10% of GDP, today they are at 20% GDP and headed for 25%! Ill health now affects more than 50% of the US population and growing and only RFK Jr. has has the guts to speak the truth about the issue and mainstream media ignores this real crisis that is bankrupting the nation. Other industrialized nations have gone to socialized medicine as a capping mechanism, with limited success. Root cause are ignored. My view.

I am so glad Kennedy is now supporting Trump. He needs to be at a higher level so that he can be heard by all. I agree with his concerns regarding vaccines, and toxic chemicals in food processing. Every time I hear him speak I can't help but recognize he is a smart and knowledgeable man.

I respect his dedication that is not being recognized by the controlled mass media. They know who is buttering their bread. Sadly.

This is interesting in that I've been reading suggestions that major actors, such as Amazon, are developing medical care operations that entail reduced physician involvement. There have been suggestions that pharmacists and AI will assume impactful roles. For the sake of the support of such as the AAPS approaches, I'm hoping someone is keeping track of the directions being promoted and initiated. So we can better encourage productive efforts and inform of dehumanizing, counter productive directions.

Yup. AI is at best a double edged sword.
