  1. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/459674/covid-19-anti-vax-gp-speaks-out-against-doctor-who-reported-him What else doesn’t he believe in? It’s bad enough when docs don’t believe in abortion ever but this is a thing that is ubiquitious. I remember a dr who had a personal treatment against cancer Dr Milan Brych.

    I like this snappy heading. https://www.cookislandsnews.com/weekend/dr-brych-a-dud-czech-who-bounced-around-pacific/

    In 1978 Sir Joh invited Milan Brych to move to Queensland to set up practice, this was headline news at the time, and very controversial. I suspect that if it wasn’t for the Deputy Premier Dr Llew Edwards actually being a medical doctor, and being totally opposed to a quack doctor setting up in the state, this would have occurred.
    He eventually moved to the US, was arrested for fraud in 1983 and sentenced to 6 years jail. Afterwards he disappeared and seems to have dropped out of sight.

    Brych was practising in Auckland against cancer in the early 1970s and was deregistered in NZ in 1977.
    This from an address of a medical man in NZ about 2019.. https://medicolegal.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Restall-2015.pdf
    I vividly remember my father’s indignation over the Milan Brych affair in the 1970’s. Brych, as many of you will remember, was at the time treating cancer patients with apricot kernels and making false and extravagant claims about his success. I remember my father, together with a group of other consultants, in a rare display of medical unity and political activity, threateningto resign from Auckland Hospital if Brych and his apricot kernels were not banished. Such was my upbringing…

    (Further, as to why the person went into pathology and with a comment on the middle class and vaccinations.)
    I have been asked many times what made me give up a successful practice as a GP in Remuera and embark, with young children and a large mortgage, on a long period of training in pathology. And the answer, in a nutshell, is, I suppose“science”. I grew tired of having to talk mothers into having their children vaccinated. These generally well educated and socially privileged women could accept that diphtheria,polio and tetanus were still real and potentially deadly threats, but still somehow managed to convince themselves that their little Samantha or Benjamin would be healthier without the jab.

  2. Dunno why Brian is describing himself as a political prisoner. Jesus was a political prisoner, but Brian looks like a common criminal to me. Jesus healed people. Brian puts them at risk. Jesus had a better back story than Brian too. Still, he might be able to get his hair washed in prison, get deloused.
