Sign Petition To Ban Big Pharma Ads on TV

How Big Ag/Big Pharma Keep America Sick explains that Americans spend an average of $12,555 per person on healthcare annually according to the Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker. By comparison, typical healthcare spending across other developed nations is about $6,651. However, Americans are the sickest, fattest, unhealthiest population. The US ranks high in infant mortality and ranks low in life expectancy compared to other industrialized nations. This shows that the American approach to healthcare is not working.

Why are so many Americans, including children, so sick when we spend so much more for healthcare than any other nation? What if the food we eat undermines our health? What if the medical system is not designed to protect or restore our health but to make us permanent cash cows for Big Pharma? If so, how did this happen and how can we fix this unhealthy system?

Shocking New Book: The Pfizer Papers shows that Pfizer Enters Largest Healthcare Fraud Settlement in U.S. History which explains that Pfizer, inc. paid $2.3 billion to the Federal government and 49 States to settle allegations it violated federal regulations in promoting several drugs. The United States and New Zealand are the only nations that allow drug companies to advertise on television. So, many programs in America are now “Brought to you by Pfizer”.

‘Brought To You By Pfizer’: These Are News Programs That Are Sponsored By Big Pharma

Although Pfizer had promised transparency about the COVID-19 vaccine, it tried to hide its clinical trial data on the COVID shot for 75 years! However, attorney Aaron Siri, Managing Partner of Siri & Glimstad LLP, forced the FDA to release the data in eight months starting in September 2022 as opposed to 2097! Siri’s firm works with the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) in collaboration with The Highwire, hosted by Del Bigtree, which airs online Thursdays from 2-4 ET.

Amazon Description

The Pfizer Papers features new reports written by WarRoom/DailyClout research volunteers, which are based on the primary source Pfizer clinical trial documents released under court order and on related medical literature. The book shows in high relief that Pfizer’s mRNA COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial was deeply flawed and that the pharmaceutical company knew by November 2020 that its vaccine was neither safe nor effective.

Just as importantly, The Pfizer Papers makes it clear that the US Food and Drug Administration knew about the shortfalls of Pfizer’s clinical trial as well as the harms caused by the company’s mRNA COVID vaccine product, thus highlighting the FDA’s abject failure to fulfill its mission to “[protect] the public health by ensuring the safety, efficacy, and security of human and veterinary drugs, biological products, and medical devices.”

The Pfizer Papers offers an in-depth look at how Big Pharma, the US government, and healthcare entities stand protected behind the broad legal immunity provided by the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP Act) when creating, prescribing, and administering vaccines; and, under that shield of protection, do what is best for their bottom lines rather than for the health and well-being of Americans.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. began his campaign for the US presidency running as a “Kennedy Democrat” last year. He aligned with the values of the Democratic Party of his uncle President John Kennedy and his father Robert Kennedy who ran for the presidency in 1968. However, later declared himself independent of the Democratic Party when it refused to allow him to debate. Kennedy joined the Trump Transition Team this summer and has vowed to “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA). See Kennedy’s Plan To Restore America’s Health.

Demand President Biden Instruct FDA to Ban Pharma Ads

Pharmaceutical companies’ enormous advertising spending empowers them to dictate what goes on the evening news. In effect, Big Pharma tells the TV announcers what they’re allowed to say and not say—especially about the pharmaceutical industry, but about any other subject, too. The huge advertising spend also massively increases the cost of prescription drugs.

Only the US and New Zealand Allow Pharmaceutical Advertising

The US is only one of two countries in the world that allows pharma ads on television. Every other country in the world recognizes that pharma ads represent a threat to the public good.

Pharma Ads Promote Drugs Known to Cause Harm

Take for example Vioxx, an anti-arthritis drug. During the five years Vioxx was on the market, it was one of the most highly promoted medications in the world. Worldwide, over 80 Million people were prescribed it at some time. In the year before it was withdrawn from the market, Vioxx generated over $2.5 billion in sales.

Vioxx raised the risk of heart attacks, but the manufacturer continued to promote the drug to the public in the US and New Zealand long after internal company documents indicated an increased risk of death. Is this an isolated case? Remember, Big Pharma told the American people that opioids were “safe and effective.” More than 100,000 people are dying per year from opioids.

Increasing the Cost of Medicine

In 2023, Big Pharma spent $37 billion more on sales and marketing than on research! Naturally, spending millions of dollars a day – billions per month – on advertising hugely increases the cost of medications.

Twice as Much as Automobile Ads

Pharmaceutical companies spend almost twice as much as car companies on advertising. Not surprisingly, Americans consume more pharmaceutical products than anyone else on the planet. Does this make Americans among the most healthy people in the world? Quite the opposite.

The Sickest Generation

The current generation is the sickest in American history. In the 1960’s, 6% of American kids had a chronic health condition. Today it is 60%. Rates of autoimmune disease, diabetes, ADD and ADHD, autism, obesity, asthma, food allergies, and other chronic health conditions have been skyrocketing.

Enormous Harm

Not only does this alarming trend cause enormous pain and suffering, but it is also bankrupting our country. In the 1960’s, the U.S. spent 4% of GDP on healthcare. Today it is 17%. That amounts to $4.3 trillion per year, dwarfing the total federal defense and security budget of $1.3 trillion. Approximately 90% of U.S. healthcare costs today are for people with chronic and mental health conditions.

Buying the Right to Dictate Content

The primary purpose of pharmaceutical advertising is not to influence consumers, but rather the television networks and news itself. It gives Big Pharma the power to dictate what goes on the news – and what doesn’t – because the networks won’t bite the hand that feeds them. Industry observers estimate between 70% and 80% of television advertising revenue during the evening news comes from pharmaceutical ads.

Suppose a prominent newscaster makes $20 million a year. And more than 70% of that depends on income from pharmaceutical ads. Will that newscaster be willing to air a story that casts one of his sponsors in a negative light? Even if the announcer were willing, would the TV network approve airing such a segment? They would not.

For the health of our children and our failing economy, we urge the federal government to address this catastrophe by banning pharmaceutical ads.
