Death by Doctors

The word "iatrogenic" means "relating to illness caused by medical examination or treatment". Some medical "professionals" might argue that such a word describes an impossible scenario because medical interventions can never cause harm. However, let's look at the following piece of history:

Ignaz Semmelweis was a Hungarian physician who lived in the 19th century and is now known for his work on the importance of handwashing in preventing the spread of infectious diseases.

In the mid-1800s, Semmelweis was working at a hospital in Vienna where he noticed that women were dying from childbed fever at a much higher rate in the maternity ward where doctors and medical students worked, compared to the ward where midwives worked. He proposed that this was due to doctors and medical students performing autopsies and then going to deliver babies without washing their hands, which was transferring infectious material to the women.

However, his ideas were met with ridicule and opposition from the medical community at the time, and he was eventually committed to an insane asylum, where he died at the age of 47. It was not until many years later, after the work of Louis Pasteur and the development of germ theory, that Semmelweis's ideas were recognized as important contributions to the understanding and prevention of infectious diseases.

Well some might argue that that was then and this is now but I don't think much has changed in the early part of the 21st century. At least not in regards to the "ridicule and opposition" directed at any well-intended criticism of the "profession" from those within it or, heavens forbid, from those not within it. What has changed is the power of BIG PHARMA over medical practice, or should that be malpractice. The arrogance of allopathic medicine has soared since the 19th century as well, subjugating and denigrating all alternative medicine practices before it. The motto nowadays might well be ONE WAY, WITH DRUGS.

Side-effects from the drugs people take are no problem because drugs have been developed to treat those side-effects. There's little point saying more. As I've said before my motivation to post to this blog remains low. Once you realise what's going on, it's pointless mentioning specific examples that confirm the rolling-out of the agenda. The only bright light in an otherwise dismal firmament has been listening to music by "Five Times August".

Five Times August is the solo act of singer/songwriter Brad Skistimas. Skistimas has appeared on the FOX Business channel as an expert "Do-It-Yourself" indie artist and featured in Billboard Magazine, Performing Songwriter, Guitar Player, PeopleMagazine, and USA Today. He was the first completely unsigned act to have an album distributed in Walmart stores nationwide with 2007's "The Independent." The music has been featured on many popular TV shows, commercials, and films and tour dates have supported some of the nation's top acts.

In early 2021 Five Times August began releasing a series of protest songs taking aim at Covid-era regulations, the Biden administration, Justin Trudeau, as well as Anthony Fauci with the hit song "Sad Little Man," which reached #1 on several Amazon and Apple Music charts.

Several of the music videos for these tracks have been suppressed and censored on social media platforms like YouTube and Facebook. Despite being restricted by big tech, the videos have been viewed millions of times and press includes prominent features on Glenn Beck, Chad Prather, Del Bigtree's The HighWire, The Federalist, The Post Millennial, RebelNews, and much more.

​Skistimas performed his song "Silent War" on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC for 35,000 attendees at the Defeat the Mandates rally on January 23rd 2022, and more recently even had the honor of singing The National Anthem for Dr. Ben Carson and President Donald Trump.

In November 2022 Five Times August released the full length album "Silent War," a compilation featuring all of the recent protest singles. The album reached as high as #5 on Amazon's best selling albums, sitting between mainstream artists Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen. The album also reached #1 on Amazon and Apple Music's singer/songwriter and alternative charts.
