Originally released to the public as a burst of audio podcasts over Christmas 2022, COVID Critical is a series of interviews with metwdical and legal professionals, government advisers, epidemiologists and activists, who had opposed elements of the COVID-19 regime. TPS now releases the unedited video of those interviews from our vaults, exclusively for our Patreon subscribers.
Stanford Professor of Medicine and Great Barrington Declaration co-author Jay Bhattacharya joins TPS for a wide-ranging discussion of the lockdown debate, the mistakes in our vaccine policy, the controversy of Long COVID, the false lessons being drawn from the COVID-19 pandemic, and how to avoid falling prey to the same top-down approaches in the next one.
