My friend is the chief of an American ER. For the better part of a year now, he's been advising me to take the shots, saying he is concerned for my safety. For the better part of a year now, I have been advising him to explore early treatment options, saying I'm concerned about his credibility and reputation.

We are now standing at a crossroads that runs straight through the heart of mankind. I fear for him, and others like him, in ways that haunt me daily. Like the author, I fear he has walked too far along the plank, and that the abyss seems more comforting to him now. There's a hubris which infects intelligence that seems more potent than any virus. It becomes harder by the moment to see any way for him to climb down from those heights of hubris; he'd be climbing down a stack of corpses that would be unimaginable for most people.

My heart still cries out for him. He is still my friend, and I can't accept that he is beyond saving. But it does appear that there is too much ego (not to mention potential liabilities) at stake for him and other doctors to admit they were hoodwinked. The odds are that instead of a careful climb-down we will see something more akin to a Maoist cultural revolution, in which the medical brass will try to convince the youth that those who resisted are the architects of their ruin.

I will never be able to forgive people who treated me in a condescending manner for voicing my concerns with the validity of the “pandemic.” Never. Destroyed friendships of 40 years. Respect for these people is gone forever. And the people responsible for it? I want Nuremberg 2. The idea that no one will be accountable for the willful destruction of so many lives is unthinkable.
