He is a stopped clock. Not worth following

Alex did the same denial when he claimed Ivermectin failed to produce positive results against COVID by failing to fully analyze a peer reviewed study. I'm afraid, at heart he still harbors old NYT practices and prejudices.

Yes, he did some great work but ends up with the sheeple dogma in many cases. It is very strange.

I stopped listening to him when he asserted he knew more about ivermectin's efficacy than Pierre Kory.

I'll take "Tell me you're a paid influencer without telling me that you're a schill for BigPharma" for $10K, Alex! LOLOLOLOLOLOL This made me laugh so hard, as he's so fake & obviously derailed from living by principle long ago, that it's hilarious to see him get publicly busted! You go, Steve!

Yes, Alex has blinders. I'm a paid subscriber of Alex, but that will soon end. He goes on meltdowns using old, out of date stats, data, clearly not looking at what new scientists are finding, nor reading the buried information coming out. He was very good with the Covid debacle...stood his ground, and proved right. But will not open his eyes to the utterly corrupt FDA, CDC, DEA and Big Pharma. It is most disappointing. I cannot sit by and watch my young grandson's go through 72 vaccines, they will be lost souls after that mess destroys their health.

Paid shill of Medical Industrial Complex

I was a paid subscriber of Alex for a long time and when I saw him gaslight himself and others on the excess mortality and mrna harms that were so obvious and clear, I dropped his ass! good job doing the same, Steve!

How could he know that? Nobody believes their "studies" anymore.

Alex lost me when he came out against Ivermectin.

Except the Rasmussen figure - 34 percent of households reporting a child on the spectrum - is off by roughly an order of magnitude from measured prevalence (CDC record-based surveillance puts it near 1 in 31 children, and nothing like a third of households contains an autistic child).

A self-report opt-in poll (called a push-poll) inflating a known quantity tenfold is a direct calibration test, run inadvertently against ground truth, and the instrument failed by 1,000 percent.

This should not be offered as evidence of scale; it's actually the strongest evidence that surveys of this kind cannot measure autism.

Kinda obvious that "1/3 of all families have an autistic child" ain't true, unless you're a Believer.

Berenson is not a scientist and is a former journalist. He should be treated as such. I stopped reading his stuff long ago.

Another paid shrill for big pharma . There was no autism when I was born . The biggest change has been vaccines , dozens of them and many have already had charts showing the direct relation between the vaxxed and unvaxxed . One honest study of unvaccinated to vaccinated 6-12 year olds showed up to a 5x increase of autism . There is no argument just all the people who have sold their soul for a few bucks .

But Alex is also an idiot. . .

He's not necessarily an "idiot", perhaps just a coward - if his wife is a psychiatrist and prescribes toxic meds, he has to keep his mouth shut. Maybe he's been warned....Get the picture? I've noticed from his past newsletters that he sits on the fence a lot and writes columns while imparting no real information. And did someone comment here that he claims that Ivermectin doesn't help, at all, for Covid? I will tell you from personal experience and that of friends and colleagues, including doctors, that he's dead WRONG! Ivermectin saved me when I had it smuggled into the hospital (and I threw out the meds given me there - I had my own supplement protocol and fortunately, they just thought I was a nutcase and humored me when they saw my stash of supplements:-)) As for his support of Trump, well, I'm Canadian, but, I believe that Trump, with all of his "Trumpisms", is the best you've got, and my feeling is that he knows exactly what he's doing. Tell me if you think I'm wrong....

This guy Alex Berenson has been wrong since Covid began, over and over. Something seems off with him. He’s not the ‘full quid’ shall we say.
