On this special episode of âSara Gonzales Unfiltered,â your favorite spicy Latina invites former G.I. surgeon and medical researcher Dr. Andrew Wakefield â who Wikipedia labels as a âfraudster, discredited academic, [and] anti-vaccine activistâ â to challenge the mainstream narrative surrounding Big Pharma.
Also joining the show is Matthew Marsden, BlazeTV contributor and star of Wakefieldâs new film, “Protocol-7,â which is a bombshell âwhistleblower storyâ that chronicles the true events of the lawsuit against Merck for the firmâs allegedly harmful MMR vaccine.
Together, the three discuss what Sara calls âepic levels of Big Pharma corruption.â
So, how did Dr. Wakefield become âBig Pharma’s number one enemy?â
Simple. He spoke the truth even when the truth was inconvenient.
Turns out when you âconfront government policy and you threaten pharmaceutical industry profiteering,â you âtake a relatively promising medical career and flush it down the toilet,â says Dr. Wakefield, adding that heâs been embroiled in this battle for â30 years now.â
The longstanding narrative surrounding Dr. Wakefield is that he claimed âvaccines cause autism.â
However, thatâs not even close to the full story.
âIn 1995, I started getting calls from parents saying my child was perfectly well … and then they had an MMR vaccine, then they had a seizure, and they were never the same again; the lights went out, and they were ultimately diagnosed with autism,â he tells Sara.
While Dr. Wakefield was not trained in matters related to autism, parents continued to call him because their children were simultaneously experiencing painful âintractable bowel problems,â which was within his scope of practice.
However, âThe doctors and nurses I talked to dismissed this. They said, âThis is just autism, get used to it, put them in a home, forget about them, move on, [and] have another child.ââ
Thankfully, instead of silently complying, Dr. Wakefield âput together a big team of eminent doctors and the world’s leading pediatric gastroenterologists at the time.â
âWe investigated these children, and the parents were absolutely right,â he says. âThe children had an inflammatory bowel disease, and when we treated that bowel disease as we might treat Crohn’s disease or colitis with anti-inflammatories, then not only did the bowel symptoms get better, but they started speaking again.â
âWe did it 183 times before I left the Royal Free [Hospital], and it happened virtually every single time.â
When it had become clear âthat the medical profession was wrong on virtually every countâ related to the effects of its vaccines, Dr. Wakefield suggested âdissociating these vaccines into their component parts … given perhaps by separation of one year.â
In other words, he never suggested not taking vaccines but rather just taking them separately in order to better study the effects of each individual vaccine.
So while he drew âno conclusions,â made â[no] definitive statements,â and per protocol, suggested a âmore detailed studyâ based on the case series heâd drawn up, his words were twisted and manipulated, eventually leading to his expulsion from the medical field altogether.
