The Weaponization of Medicine

Our health is no longer merely a physical state. It is now a set of biometrics used to monitor and manipulate us in real time.

Most people, I suspect, are familiar with what is referred to as the Military-Industrial Complex. This is the very powerful interlocking set of industries that not only manufacture the weapons of war, but also includes intelligence agencies, lobbyists, and the government employees – both elected and unelected – that work together toward the shared goal of maintaining the power and profitability of that very complex.

The existence of this complex is not controversial. Major General Smedley Butler famously wrote about it as long ago as 1933. But in recent times, and especially with the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), a second industrial complex has come into being, one I’ll call the Surveillance-Industrial Complex (SIC).

The Surveillance-Industrial Complex

The existence of the SIC is not controversial. We can all see it: cameras are capturing our activities throughout virtually every venture into public spaces. Over 350,000 Flock cameras are not just photographing our license plates, but are also capturing our faces and even our voices to build individual profiles on each of us.

AI is monitoring our social media posts even here in the US. Every question we type into our favorite AI chat bot is used to build a memory of each of us, creating a personality profile based on what we’re asking about, what our health issues might be, what kinds of plans we’re making, etc. Any personal computer with built-in AI is continuously monitoring keystrokes, collecting data about our hobbies, our concerns, and our health.

The primary function of Google’s Chrome browser and gmail is not to provide a service. It is to collect data. Every email sent and received, every web page visited, all of it is monitored and data extracted as part of the living profile created about each one of us through AI.

Of course the SIC didn’t start with AI. It got its legs with the Patriot Act, which was rushed through the legislative process and passed with little scrutiny shortly after 9/11. That act (for example) allows the government to request the full medical record of any patient in the country, and it prohibits their doctor from informing the patient that the records request was made. That’s just one tiny provision within that act, and it is still the law. HIPAA protects you from me sharing your medical information with your neighbor, but not from sharing it with the government when that is required.

The Medical-Industrial Complex

The third and perhaps most grotesque industrial complex to arise is the Medical-Industrial Complex. It is not the newest such complex, but it is the way in which it is now interwoven with the other two that makes it so nefarious.

Three industrial complexes, one fully integrated union.

Though each of these industrial complexes had been feeling their way toward one another for decades, it was with the roll-out of Covid-19 (C19) that all three came into a fully integrated union, one that will rapidly become more powerful and coercive over time.

Leading up to and during C19 each of the three played (and continues to play) an integral role. The SARS-CoV-19 virus itself is virtually certain to be the product of genetic manipulations intended to make it both more infectious and more pathogenic. The claim of it being of natural origin looks absurd upon even the slightest scrutiny. It was developed through close collaboration between the military’s bioweapons research network and the US biological research infrastructure overseen by Dr. Anthony Fauci. The only reason it is controversial to state this is because these facts have been withheld from the public.

The second layer was the development of the mRNA injections, which could only be called “vaccines” by redefining the word so that they could be included in that category. They are not vaccines in any traditional sense of that word; they are gene therapies. The spike antigen present in those injections was heavily genetically modified, and I have co-authored a few articles (here and here) that explain the potential detrimental biological impacts of those modifications.

Perhaps the most ominous consequence of the mRNA is the potential for it to be incorporated into our own cellular DNA and so potentially passed along through multiple generations of cells and even generations of people. I’ve co-authored several papers detailing these risks, as have others (here and here, for example).

It is important to note that the mRNA material used in shots delivered to the general public were manufactured through a different process than the material used in the initial clinical trials, the trials that gave birth to the claims of “safe and effective.” The stuff they said was “safe and effective” was not (and is not) the same stuff they injected into people’s arms when the shots rolled out in late 2020.

The third layer of cooperation between these three industrial complexes was the astounding unified and ubiquitous messaging and promotion, which was closely tied to the coercion and manipulation targeting the general global population to all-but-force everyone to get multiple shots of that mRNA. Just look at Table 1 of this peer-reviewed article that actually studied the most effective form of emotional manipulation to get people to be willing to receive an mRNA shot.

Why this is in my newsletter

What is an article about all this doing in my newsletter? Because our health is no longer merely a physical state. It is now broken down into a set of biometrics – more being added all the time – that are used to both monitor and manipulate us in real time. Wearable devices can currently monitor around 40 different biometrics, including glucose, sleep, hydration status, activity level and location, heart rate, blood pressure, and much else.

Over 80 additional biometric sensors are in development such that soon monitors will act as in-real-time blood tests, monitoring everything from inflammation to amino acid levels to hormones and much more. LollyLab even has a candy-flavored lollypop that can monitor medication levels in your saliva. All this information is wirelessly transmitted to your phone so you can track your health. And that information is also transmitted to the cloud, and it is virtually guaranteed that it will be (and is currently) used to update and expand the personal profile AI has built and maintains.

Could those industrial complexes, all three being extensions of the Federal government, use information in those profiles to, say, restrict our ability to drive, or limit access to goods or services, or to our money unless we fulfill some “public health” requirements? Having witnessed the coercion, censorship, and outright physical assault on the population that transpired during the Covid era, I believe these industrial complexes will absolutely use both our biometric information and our fear of contagious diseases for purposes that will certainly not be in our best interests.

Personally, I would not wear any biometric monitoring device. Not only is it building that profile, but the EMF exposure from a monitor worn 24/7 is far, far greater than that of being in a house with a wireless router, for example.

The most radical act

In this context the most radical act is to preserve your health so that you have as little interaction as possible with the medical-industrial complex. Every encounter, no matter how trivial, is vacuuming up your health data and feeding it into the cloud. That vacuum is built into the architecture of the system. Many people are now turning their medical records over to AI to keep it organized and accessible. Both Amazon and Google have AI-driven platforms that offer everything from prescription management to lab interpretations to appointment booking. Their services, though, are simply the carrots that they hope will entice consumers to give them access to your medical data.

It has been repeated ad nauseum that AI will “change everything,” that it will replace dozens of jobs. I believe an even more insidious way that AI will change everything will be through the real time personal profile it is creating on each of us, one that brings together public surveillance, medical information, biometric monitoring, personal communication contents and even offline computer use, AI chat interactions, and surely much more I am unaware of.

My point is not to be conspiratorial. It is to recognize the Covid era for what it was, to acknowledge the known ways that AI is being used today, and to make a reasonable projection regarding what those two imply for the near future. In fact the large AI platforms can already pull data from FitBit, Apple Health, Oura, and other monitors.

Consider this article a public service announcement. We simply cannot avoid interaction with all three of the industrial complexes I mention here. But I believe one of the most effective ways to minimize our AI profile is to adopt the daily practices that allow us to maintain our health. Unfortunately that is a goal we pursue and hopefully attain not because of, but largely in spite of our medical system.
