Summary
Excellent conversation with a hero of mine - retired Professor of Pathology Dr. John Lee. He has written such common-sense and yet exceptionally scientific articles on this seasonal viral challenge in The Spectator Magazine, since late March. I found these articles and realized there was at least one other person in UK/Ireland who understood what the hell was going on - a relief I must say!
We cover mortality risk realities, the evidence against Lockdown being an effective intervention, the ethics and philosophy of this whole mess - and exactly WHY they got it so badly wrong.
The technical reality is nothing like that portrayed in the media - that's for sure.
Please support this free podcast by sharing out new movie - click here: ExtraTimeMovie.com - it deals with a vastly bigger problem than this current seasonal viral one - and provides the solutions too!

| 0:00.0 | As I said at the beginning, there's a word for doing things in medicine when you don't know what |
| 0:04.0 | their effects are and doing them anyway, and that's negligence. |
| 0:07.1 | And I think the approach to this healthcare crisis has been negligent, both politically and |
| 0:11.1 | scientifically and medically, and, you know, we really need to look into it. |
| 0:14.7 | We really need to do better next time. |
| 0:19.9 | Welcome to the Fat Emperor podcast. |
| 0:21.6 | I'm your host, Iber Cummins. |
| 0:23.6 | Another fascinating discussion today, and we've got someone who I was incredibly impressed with over the months of April and May 2020 |
| 0:33.6 | because this gentleman was doing incredibly insightful articles in the Spectator magazine |
| 0:40.0 | around our current viral issue. So it's Dr. John Lee, who's the retired professor of |
| 0:46.3 | pathology at Hull, York Hospital. And John, it's a delight to meet you now after reading |
| 0:52.3 | so many of your informative articles. |
| 0:54.5 | Thank you. |
| 0:56.0 | And just in terms of your background, obviously pathology is something where you really get to know the workings of the human body. |
| 1:04.0 | And a couple of my most insightful people in the network over the past years have been pathologists like Dr. Joseph Kraft, |
| 1:12.2 | who did around 15,000 insulin glucose assays back in the 70s and discovered the enormous |
| 1:19.0 | connection between diabetes and heart attacks. And then recently, Professor Subboten, a Russian in America, |
| 1:30.8 | who has basically decoded cholesterol and heart disease. |
| 1:37.7 | So pathologists seem to have this wisdom and knowledge beyond the average specialty, at least I think. |
| 1:38.6 | What do you reckon? |
| 1:41.0 | Well, I'm glad to take that. Yeah, I'll take that. |
| 1:45.7 | I mean, my background is slightly unusual. I did a BSE in physiology at University College London follow so that's how the body works |
