when we knew the science and data cases were spiking that way. it would be ridiculous to publish saying everything was okay. we were over ruled of the that was the message being pushed. i'm not surprised there were e-mails floating around that way. saying herd immunity and you see the president pick up on the message. regardless internally was saying no way. this is dangerous. it will kill more americans. >> i can't imagine what you think about this. as a clinician. hearing this story. i'll ask you to weigh in on what does sound like an expeerpt performed against the will of the american people and trump supporters. he was gathering them. putting them in parties. encouraging them to meet and be maskless. this was conducted on friend and foe. on people he didn't give a damn about. black and brown people who were going to die. sp supporters. that sounds like it sounds criminal. >> absolutely. he would be -- if he were a clinician his license would be taken away. he would be stripped of any privilege to do anything not only sued for medical malpractice and put him in jail. why am i

of the tree, published a detailed investigation into the effectiveness of the innovation medicines initiative. i am mine. it's the world's biggest public, private partnership in life sciences and it directs billions of dollars worth of funds to buy medical research of the world's biggest pharma companies. what the investigation uncovered was that not only did firms in 2017 turned down an e.u. proposal to work on vaccines for pathogens like coronavirus. but 2600000000 euro of, i am eyes funds were transferred into projects that represented much more commercially profitable avenues for the pharmaceutical industry. this investigation reinforced a point that big pharma insiders and whistleblowers have been making for a while. that serious matters, like pandemic preparedness, being held hostage by commercial considerations on march 5th, as coronavirus cases spread across the u.s. . a congressional hearing is taking place. we also took on a decade ago the interesting problem of making coronavirus vaccines because we recognize these as enormous public health threats. and yet we have not seen the big pharma guys and the biotechs rushing in into the space of dr. peter hotez, one of
