Forced Obesity Treatment: the Logical Next Step

Monash Health Professor of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Ben Mol, specialises in medical interventions: what are they, why are they deployed, are they overused?Show more

He leads the Evidenced based Women's Health Care Research Group who investigate whether medical interventions around the world are conducted with evidence, are beneficial to patients, and whether they cause harm.

In the course of his research, Ben has uncovered startling evidence such as 30% of peer-reviewed and published randomly controlled trials being completely fabricated.

In this interview we explored the world's largest health intervention to date: government and public health responses to Covid-19. The professor has been vocal about the injustice and illogic of vaccine mandates, punitive measures against Queensland's unvaccinated teachers, the deportation of Novak Djokovic from Australia, malfeasance in academic research, and lockdowns as 'one of the greatest peacetime policy failures in modern history'.
