In this TV interview I discuss the need for Russian transparency surrounding the pneumonia death in Siberia. It is important to know how this woman was infected and what killed her. What was tested for? What was ruled out? What is pending?

CDC has always deferred to state death classifications. Refusing to count two Lancaster measles deaths breaks that norm, whatever the coroner’s exact wording. I told The Hill the agency is compromised and damaged by design. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/omvgl...

Pennsylvania left the vacuum. RFK Jr’s CDC filled it by removing the two deaths from the national tally pending review. A count that can be edited while under review is no longer a count. Quoted in The BMJ. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/3vraq...
