What is the MHRA up to? Part 1, by @carlheneghan https://t.co/DL422gSIsY

What is the MHRA up to? Part 1
Certainly not to look after public safety...

(The MHRA = "The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency regulates medicines, medical devices and blood components for transfusion in the UK.")

Professors Tom Jefferson and Carl Heneghan: "how the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine was authorised, promoted, and ultimately withdrawn, and concludes that this process constitutes a serious regulatory failure."

"When Vaxzevria was finally withdrawn, it was done quietly, without a comprehensive public reckoning. No formal assessment was offered explaining whether net benefit had ever been convincingly demonstrated for key populations, whether harms were avoidable, or why early warning signs did not prompt stronger intervention. The absence of accountability is one of the series’s most damning conclusions.

The ethical implications are profound.

Although vaccination was formally voluntary, uptake was driven by mandates, access restrictions, and intense social and professional pressure. Individuals were encouraged—andin certain cases compelled—to accept personal risk in the name of collective benefit, yet were never provided with clear, intelligible information about that risk.

Informed consent was treated as a procedural formality rather than a substantive ethical requirement. When harms were downplayed to avoid “scaring the public,” the balance between public health goals and individual autonomy was inverted.

If trust is to be restored, then regulatory systems must change fundamentally."

"Finally, withdrawal of a product should automatically trigger a formal public inquiry addressing benefit, harm, preventability, and responsibility. Silence is not neutrality; it is an abdication of duty. Regulators exist to protect the public, not to protect programmes or reputations.

The central lesson of the Vaxzevria Files is stark. When regulators abandon methodological rigour, obscure uncertainty, and underplay harm to preserve confidence, they undermine the very trust they seek to protect. Coercion without clarity is indefensible, and reassurance without evidence is not public health—it is institutional failure."

“The bottom line is that AI’s very good at finding things on scans. Medicine’s problem was never finding things; it’s knowing what to do next, and having the time, staff, and beds to do it.”

When someone starts their 3-hour problem monologue, just whisper, "What's already working?" or "What's the next *tiny* step?" Watch their brain short-circuit from problem-mode to possibility-mode.

Solution-Focused Conversations.

“For too long, medicine has been dominated by individuals funded by the pharmaceutical industry who have made their way into guideline committees, government advisory committees, and often sit at the top table of policy decisions.

The Revolving doors of healthcare leadership lead to predictable consequences: the solution to every illness is more pharmaceuticals and too much medicine.”

“The UKHSA and the MHRA are licensing and buying things (flu vaccines) without the foggiest idea of whether they work or not, based on a single tender. And it’s all bitty and secret.”

🤰Pregnant women deserve better than “trust us” science
A major study in Paediatrics (@AmerAcadPeds) has been used to reassure pregnant women that Covid-19 vaccines are safe. But the data behind the claim are fatally flawed.

“Retractions have become so casually executed, they’ve lost all meaning. What was once a mark of serious fraud is now a tool of reputational management.
Today, many papers are retracted not because they’re wrong, but because they’re inconvenient.
How else can one explain the demonstrably fraudulent studies funded by industry that remain published?” 👇

📢The silencing of scientific curiosity
Medical journals have became enforcers of orthodoxy—retracting genuine hypotheses while protecting proven fraud.

Why is a 'hypothesis' a threat to science?
