Speaker 2 (01:00):
Good day to you, and welcome to the Doctor Bob
Martin Show, where we don't just question the system, we
dismantle it with facts in a little humor. I'm your
co host, doctor Adam Brockman, nature medicine physician, health truth
teller and ready to shake the healthcare system with you now, folks,
before we dive into Florida's new vaccine approach that's got
(01:24):
big Pharma sweating. I need you to do something for me.

eight two to two. That's eight hundred six zero six
eight eight two to two, and let your voice shake
the walls of Washington. Are you cheering for Florida's vaccine

it is. Call us at eight hundred six zero six

Speaker 3 (02:15):
That's doctor Bob dot.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Com spelling out the word doctor docto r Bob dot com,
or by calling eight hundred six zero six eight eight
two to two. And I want to go ahead and
bring doctor Bob into this because this conversation it's it's
a pandemic in the country, and it's something that maybe
we don't hear about. It's medical tyranny. Doctor Bob, what
what are your thoughts on what's shaken down in Washington
(02:39):
and throughout the country, especially in Florida now too.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Well, it's a situation that should have happened a long
time ago. The big farm and big food organizations and
companies have had their way with the regulators of the
system long enough to the dismay of the consumers, us citizens,
(03:03):
and it's time that that's rained in. And now it
looks like that's happening finally, thanks to the leadership of
the Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior,
and of course his appointment by the Trump administration, things
are going to finally get looked at. They're going to
be analyzed, They're going to be balanced in terms of
(03:25):
the science behind them rather than the politics behind them
and the money that drives those decisions that happen with
respect to health regulations and the food supply in the country.
So I'm glad to see what's going on. I'm very happy.
I didn't think I'd see it in my lifetime, but
it looks like it's unfolding. There's been a lot of
resistance to it, a lot of pushback when you have
(03:48):
people who have dedicated their lives to fraudulent activity and
cushy jobs where they do nothing but nod their heads
like sheeple for big pharma and big food. When suddenly
that becomes disrupted, that money chain, people start screaming, you know,
(04:12):
for the removal of Robert F. Kennedy Junior. And hopefully
that will not happen. It should not happen, And I'm
hoping that the momentum that he has generated so far
continues to move forward.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
And well, doctor Bob Florida just dropped the mic on
vaccine mandates, and the establishment is having a meltdown. They're screaming,
but herd immunity, but the children. And meanwhile, these guys
in the government, these senators in congressmen, they've spent decades
(04:48):
ignoring natural remedies, even mocking them like they're some type
of medieval witchcraft.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
And well, that's part of the propaganda that's been part
part of the propaganda that people have brainwashed the the
people have been brainwashed by big pharmacy, by the conventional
medical system, to believe that human beings don't have an
immune system, that all healing happens from the outside rather
than the inside, and that we need some chemical soup,
(05:15):
some chemical conglomeration that drips through a needle to be
jammed into the bodies of young children to the extent
of eighty almost eighty different vaccines by the age of eighteen.
This is unprecedented. This has never happened before. And we
know that it's not benefiting anybody because we have the
sickest nation on the planet. Children's health is circling the drain.
(05:39):
We have higher levels of all kinds of childhood illnesses
relative to that kind of an approach. So it's not
working and it needs to stop, and it's in fact dangerous.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
And so the senators in the congressman, they're just as
guilty of pushing pills like they're candy at a big
pharma parade or something, and gaslighting these parents that who
dare to ask the question.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Hey, what's in the shot? Well, guess what the jig
is up?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Now people are waking up faster than the caffeine IV drip,
and they're demanding the answers like what Robert F. Kennedy
Junior is trying to do. The transparency that no more
hiding data like it's some type of a secret, because
it is a secret. The results that are coming out
are just more. They just buried these the results. What
(06:28):
was it the the one that RFK Junior talked about
with the hepatitis. Yeah, yeah, the hepatitis and and the
autism with African American boys, And that was a study
in two thousand and two that they had something like
two hundred and fifty percent more likelihood to develop autism
from the MMR vaccine. So it's not attack on the
(06:50):
vaccines as much as the safety of vaccines. And so
getting this choice back and letting doctors and patients parents
decide what's best, not not the government official that is
paid by Pfizer with a stock portfolio and the accountability.
He's said, if you've been wrong for fifty years, you
(07:11):
don't get to keep your job.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
So it's not a left or right.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
It's about health and not the hysteria, which is what
the Senate is trying to make it right now.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah, it's really about freedom. It's about autonomy of one's body.
It's about saying, look, if I want to have a vaccine, fine,
that is my choice. But I'm not going to force
it upon my neighbor to have a vaccine. If that
neighbor does not feel that their child is going to
benefit by that vaccine, that's been the problem, and that
is the forced upon us based on the conventional medical model,
(07:44):
being bought and paid for being the wholly owned subsidiary
of Big Pharma. All these medical organizations who believe and
try to pull the woe over our eyes and say
that they're protecting American health, it's a bunch of garbage.
The CDC has failed, the am MAY has failed, the
FDA has failed, and that's why we need to go
in and clean house and get all that cancer out
(08:05):
of there and get some new life in there that
can actually do the right thing for the right reasons
for our citizens.
Speaker 5 (08:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Absolutely, And what Florida is doing is a really it's
groundbreaking and it's a decision that's rocked the nation. So
I want to go into that a little bit more
with the listeners. I want everybody to picture this humid
September morning in Tallahassee and then the air is thick
with this tension. We don't know what's going on here.
And Governor Ron Desanda steps up to the podium and
(08:34):
he's flanked by a surgeon general, doctor Joseph Latipo, and
the cameras flash as he drops this bombshell that would
send shockwaves through the hospitals, the schools, and living rooms
across America. He says, Florida is ending all vaccine mandates
for children. No more measle shots for school, no more
polio requirements, and certainly no government telling parents what medical
(08:58):
choice is to make for their kids. Of course, vaccines
are still recommended, but they're not forced. And here's where
it gets even juicier. Doctor Lattipoe doesn't just announce the change,
heat compares vaccine mandates to slavery, and the room erupts,
and Twitter's exploding, and pediatricians they're clutching their's thethoscopes in horror.
(09:19):
And just like that, Florida becomes the first state in
modern history to completely unravel decades of public health policy
in one swoop. Now, before everybody decides, is a triumph
or a disaster, wouldn't happened? Let me make you sure
you know the behind the scenes of this historical moment
and why it matters more than what you might think.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
And this is Florida light in a match.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
You know that term, that medical slavery, the SoundBite that
set everything on fire. I want Phil, can you go
ahead and play that audio.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
Ship with the governor is going to be working to
end all vaccine mandates in Florida.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Lack all of them, all of them.
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Every last one of them is wrong and drips with
disdain and slavery. Okay, who am i as a government
or anyone else, or who am I as a man
standing here now.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
To tell you what you should put in your body.
Your body is a gift from God.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
What you put into your body, what you put into
your body is because of your relationship with your body
and your God.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
I don't have that right. Government does not have that right.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
All right, doctor Bob, when we come back from break,
I want to discuss this a little bit more. When
Latipoe leaned into that microphone, he declared that mandates were
dripping with disdain and slavery.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
He wasn't just making headlines.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
He was throwing gasoline on an already raging cultural war
over vaccines. So when we come back, I want to
get your opinion on this. You're listening to the Doctor
Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
I must stay conscious.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
Through the unspen case, so I call on my angels.
Speaker 8 (11:13):
Listen, lease, welcome back.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
You're listening to the Doctor Bob Martin Show. I'm doctor
Adam Brockman. And remember, if you've got health related questions
or about nutrition or anything in between, our toll free
hotline is always open at eight hundred.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Six zero six eighty two to two.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
That's where two license position, Doctor Bob and I were
standing by to help you unlock your best self. That's
eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to two.
All right, doctor Bob, let's get back into it. Before
the break, we played an audio of doctor Latipoe, the
Surgeon General of Florida. He's saying, go ahead and remove
in the vaccine. He made a very powerful statement there
(11:55):
in his argument. It's simple, no government should have the
power to force met decisions on families. And parents are
cheering and medical doctors panicked, and suddenly every news channel
had some new to scream about this. But let's be real,
this wasn't some spur of the moment stunt. DeSantis has
(12:16):
been building towards this for years, positioned himself as the
anti mandate crusader since COVID turned vaccines into a political dynamount.
Doctor Bob, what are your thoughts on these changes in
these powerful statements that are taking place out of Florida.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Well, what comes to my mind when I think of
doctor Latipole, the surgeon General, a medical doctor from the
state of Florida. I think that he's one brave, honest individual.
He is enlightened. He has studied the science, not taken
the bribes. Because when you look at the money trail,
(12:53):
this goes deep. I mean we're talking. The reason the
media is also finding ways to rain this in is
because they are benefited by it. The media receives major Denario,
major money from the pharmaceutical companies to push the entire
conventional medicine agenda of more vaccines for everyone, all the
(13:17):
time until you're cradle to the grave. So this is
going to affect them. Now, this is nothing new. This
is something that the chiropractic profession has been concerned about
for almost sixty maybe seventy five years, and that is
forcing people to have vaccines when they don't want them.
(13:40):
It should be an autonomy situation where you have control
of your health. You make the decision about your body
because that's your choice. That's the freedom that we are
bestowed as being American citizens, and that freedom was taken
away from us many many decades ago by conventional medicine.
(14:01):
They took it away in the form of forcing parents
to get vaccinating in their children, even if they didn't
want to for fear that they couldn't enter school so
they couldn't go into a public school systems that mandated
that these children had to be up to speed on
their vaccine schedules. They also forced doctors to go against
(14:23):
their hippocratic oath, even if they had some indifference to
vaccinating or recommending vaccines for children that they were treating
that they were responsible for. The conventional medicine boards of
Examiners threatened doctors' licenses if they didn't follow their standard
(14:43):
of practice in recommending and or delivering the full monty
of these vaccine schedules, up to eighty vaccines by the
time you're eighteen years of age, which we know little
or nothing about. This has not been thoroughly in completely
studied childhood vaccines yet. We have allowed this to occur. Well,
(15:05):
this is all coming to an end, and the beginning point,
the set point is with this brave surgeon general in
the state of Florida and the governor of Florida. I'm
happy to see it. I hope hopefully it'll become a
trend in the United States. And looking back five years
from now, we're going to go, yeah, that was an
era that was a disaster. Just like the COVID thing
(15:27):
was a disaster that was an acute disaster. This has
been a chronic disaster. And I think that Americans should
have a lot of glee in this knowing that this
problem looks like it's going to be solved once and
for all.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Yeah, and it's a shift back to the people.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
The parents have the power again, at least in Florida,
and hopefully it does spread. And I know you're like myself.
We're both doctors, and we spent years fighting for the
patient and giving them the tools to be what you said,
for years, be their own best doctor. And I'll say
what most physicians won't, and that's government mandates have no
(16:08):
place in health care decisions. And here's why this is
a watershed moment for medical freedom, what's happening in Florida?
And also, please, before you blow up the phone lines,
I'm by no means anti vaxx. My kids get vaccines,
but on our schedule and choice, which is exactly what
Florida is saying here. Vaccines, they've saved lives, but the
(16:30):
complete disaster of COVID has opened many people's eyes to say,
wait a minute, why have we been giving our kids
nearly one hundred vaccines? If you start to add in
all these COVID boosters and everything else, when we ourselves
only just had a few growing up. It's a great question,
and now we're demanding those answers. Florida is just one
(16:50):
of the first states to say, yes, parents, you are
right to have questions. Yes, parents, you're right to want
to choose what you're putting in your kids. So this
is this is one of those watershed moments I think
we're going to look back on in a few years
and say, hey, I think I think we were right
to have questions.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
It was a struggle for Robert F.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Kennedy to sit in front of that Senate Harry, and
that was some we definitely, I think we need to
discuss that a little bit further detail, doctor Bob, in
the future. But I think we're standing on something that
we're going to get that medical freedom back, and that's
that's important prospect in here. And so the bottom line
Florida's policy it trusts parents over politicians and lobbyists. That
(17:36):
terrifies the establishment because again, we're shifting the power back
to the people. Will some make choices that maybe we
don't disagree with absolutely, but freedom isn't free. It requires
accepting that others might live differently than you. So the
real question why are we okay with big pharma having
more say over our kid's body than we do? So
(17:57):
I think that's going to be the future there, doctor Bob.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
I agree, Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Okay, let's go ahead and get into our health alternative
of the week. All right, Our health alternative of the
(18:25):
week is elderberry syrup. It's nature's ultimate am moon booster.
So before you reach for that flu shot or rush
to the pharmacy at the first sin of sniffles, I've
got a secret weapon your grandparents swore by. It's one
that big farm I hopes you'll forget. This week's health
alternative isn't just effective it's been battle tested for centuries.
(18:46):
It's Elderberry syrup, the anti viral power house that is cheaper, safer,
and often more effective than over the counter medicine. Elderberry
isn't just some folklore. It's one of the most researched
natural remedies on the planet. Here's what peer reviewed studies reveal.
It cuts flu duration in half and that's a twenty
(19:07):
sixteen Universe of Sydney study. It blocks viral entry by
its bioactive compounds coat virus particles and prevent them from
hijacking yourselves, and it fights inflammation. Elderberry suppresses overactive immune
responses like you might have heard of the cytokin storms
that make illnesses work. It's like giving your immune system
(19:28):
a GPS to hunt down the invaders. So this is
how to use it. At first sign of illness. For adults,
take one tablespoon every three to four hours until the
symptoms ease, and for kids two years and above, one
teaspoon two times daily. And if you want to do
it preventative care, take one teaspoon daily during cold flu season,
(19:50):
which is October through March, and you can also pair
it with zinc. About fifteen to thirty milligrams per day
and enhances Elderberry's virus blocking abilities.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
You can also add it.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
To smoothies after your workouts to combat exercise induced immune
for dips. And then it's a travel must have for me.
If you are scared of those airport germs, just use
two teaspoons before flying. It builds a shield.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
So folks, what you what you want to do with
this is use.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
It at any first sign of sickness, but you can
also use as a preventive measure. It also has a
little bit of risk if you have a pregnancy. It's
a maybe stick to just the culinary doses. And then
also it may overstimulate your immune system if you have
autoimmune conditions. But the final thought, Nature's pharmacy wins again.
So my clinics, I've seen Elderberry outperform Tama flu for
(20:40):
mild flu cases without the nausea dizziness. It's proof that
sometimes the best medicine grows on trees. This week, ditch
it's the fear and brew up a batch of Elderberry syrup.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Your immune system.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Well, thank you, you're listening to the Doctor Bob Martin.
Speaker 9 (20:53):
Show mistakes, But everybody's got a choice to make. Everybody
needs to leave the faith.
Speaker 10 (21:07):
When a taking you.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Money, you info.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Welcome back to doctor Adam Brockman here as we return
to the Doctor Bob Martin Show, America's number one health
talk radio program. Before we jump back into today's conversation,
I want to remind you your wellness journey continues even
when we're off air. First, our physician team is always
available at eight hundred six zero six eight eight two
to two for your health questions. That's eight hundred six
(21:35):
zero six eight eight two to two. And second, don't forget,
you can access our entire podcast library anytime at doctor
Bob dot com. We listen to your favorite episodes, catch
up on shows you've missed, or discover new health insights.
All available twenty four to seven at doctor Bob dot com. Now,
before we get back into our conversation, doctor Bob, let's
(21:56):
talk about something most people dread, and that's the dentist chair.
That moment when they peer into your mouth and you're praying,
they don't say we need to talk. Well, here's my
not so secret weapon. That's the spray dental defense system.
This is what my entire clinical team, my family, Doctor
Bob and his family, and yes, even my dental hygienis
(22:18):
used to keep our mouths in check. Here's the game
changer for Spry. It's xylotol. It's a plant based powerhouse.
It's not just sweet, it's a full on dental bodyguard.
It fights cavities and knocks out plaque, and it kicks
bad breath to the curb and Spry it packs it
with every product, their toothpaste, their mouth rents, their gum,
(22:40):
in their mints. They flavors like peppermint, cinnamon and spearmint,
all the flavors you love with none of the guilt.
So my routine I brush with Spry toothpaste, I rinse
with Spry mouthwash, and I pop a piece of Spry
gum after meals. It's like having a dental hygienist in
your back pocket. And the best part, no drastic habit
(23:02):
changes are needed. You just swap what you're already using
for Spry and let the xylotol work its magic. So
imagine your dentist leaning back and saying, whatever you're doing,
keep doing it. That's the Spry effect, and you'll find
it at CVS right aid target sprouts in natural grossers
pretty much anywhere good oral care lives. If you want
(23:24):
to know more, head over to clear dot com. Let's
spind out the word clear X L E A R
dot com. They're the same geniuses behind clear nasal sprays, which,
by the way, belong in your wellness arsenal too. So
the bottom line, if you want a mouth that's as
healthy as it is fresh, it's time to go spry
your teeth in your dental hygienis well. Thank you, all right,
(23:47):
doctor Bob. Let's go ahead and get to our health
outrage of the.
Speaker 11 (23:51):
Week each time for the health outbridge, because it's nothing fun.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
All right.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Our health outrage of the week is how CVS care
Mark allegedly defrauded Medicare. If you ever filled a prescription
at CVS or use their care Mark insurance services, this
story will hit close to home. This week, one of
America's most trusted pharmacy chains found itself in hot water
to the tune of two hundred and ninety million. That's
(24:29):
the penalty of federal judge ordered CVS care Mark to
pay after ruling the company as has recklessly overcharged Medicare
for prescription drugs. The case reads kind of like a thriller,
complete with falsified reports, ignored warnings in a courageous whistleblower
who refused.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
To stay silent.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
So let me walk you exactly through what happened, because
this isn't just about CBS. It's about how easily the
healthcare system can be exploited and who pays the price
when it is so. The story begins with Sarah Benke,
as she was a former actuary at Etna, which owns
care Mark. Back years ago, she noticed something troubling. The
(25:10):
numbers care Mark was reporting to Medicare didn't add up. Specifically,
the company was allegedly inflating drug cost in its financial disclosures,
leading Medicare to overpay by an estimated ninety five million.
Benke did what few have the courage to do. She
filed a whistleblower lawsuit under the False Claims Act and
(25:31):
accused care Mark of fraud. For years, her case wound
up through the courts while CVS denied any wrongdoing. Then
this past June, Chief Judge Goldberg delivered a bombshell ruling.
Judge Goldberg didn't just side with ben Ke, he tripled
the damages owed to by care Mark from ninety five
(25:51):
million to nearly two hundred and ninety million. In his decision,
he wrote that while there was no proof CVS executives
knowingly committed fraud, they showed reckless disregard for the truth
by failing to verify their reports. It's a legal distinction
with huge implications. Even if you don't intend to deceive.
(26:12):
Turning a blind eye to errors can cost millions of
dollars for these companies, which it should. And because interest
is still occurring on that penalty, CBS bill grows every
day that they delay this payment. So at the heart
of this case is a little known but critical part
of healthcare. It's a pharmacy benefit manager like care Mark.
(26:33):
These companies act as middleman between drug makers, insurers and
pharmacies and they set prices, They negotiate rebates and decide
where drugs are covered in how they're covered under insurance plans.
And here's where it went wrong. Care Mark submitted incorrect
what is known as numericals, the dirs in reported to
Medicare Part D and documents. They track how much pharmacies
(26:58):
actually pay for the drugs in reimburse insures that, so
by allegedly inflating these numbers, they made it seem like
their costs were higher than they really were, so Medicare
reimbursed them more than was what was necessary. So it
wasn't one time era, it happened hundreds of times over years.
So in short, they reportedly rigged the system so taxpayers
(27:19):
would foot an extra ninety five million dollar bill money
that could have gone towards lowering drug costs or expanding
healthcare access for seniors, doctor Bob. So this isn't just
something that happens with big pharm at the Senate or
our state level. This happens across the board, even with pharmacies.
(27:39):
What is going on here and.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
We need the this this sort of was some of
this stuff was uncovered by Elon Musk, all the fraud
and the excess spending. It's opened up that Pandora's box
for all the right reasons. I'm glad that these sort
of things are being exposed because it's been going on
for a long long time and nobody has been, you know,
(28:05):
actively trying to solve the problem. So I'm glad to
see that they were fined. I think it was a
slap on the wrist. It's sort of like, you know,
you make trillions and you get a little one hundred
thousand dollars million dollar penalty. Yeah, they'll take that all
day long.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Well, doctor Bob, I think we have time for a
color question. Let's get to before the break here, let's
get to Jack from Iowa.
Speaker 10 (28:33):
My name is Jack. I'm calling from Iowa, and this
is my question. I'm eighty seven years old and I
have what I call shaky legs syndrome. My legs and
my feet shake all the time. My hands that have
somewhat too, and I'd like to know what there What
there is all to the problem is some thank you
(28:57):
for taking my call?
Speaker 2 (29:00):
All right, thank you for your call, Jack, and shaking.
Our tremors can arise from various underlying conditions, especially as
we age. So here are some possible causes that may
explain what you're experiencing. One being essential tremors. This is
the most common movement disorder affecting older adults. Essential tremors
typically cause rhythmic shaking in the hands and may also
(29:22):
affect other body parts like the legs in a voice.
It often occurs with movement or when you're under stress,
other things that need a further testing may be Parkinson's
and even medication side effects. If you're taking any medications,
especially those for blood pressure or psychiatric conditions, it's worth
reviewing them with your doctor. All right, So giving your
(29:43):
age and symptom profile, it'd be wise to consult with
your doctor who specializes and maybe neurology for an accurate diagnosis.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Tailored specifically to you.

And let's dive back into our conversation with our product
(31:13):
recall of the week. All right, so we're sticking with
a theme here and this breaking story about Merk quietly
recalling two hundred and twenty eight thousand doses of the
HPV vaccine.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Over sterile concerns. Okay.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
In a move that received virtually no media attention, pharmaceutical
giant Merk initiated a voluntary recall of over two hundred
and twenty eight thousand doses of guard to sell nine
HPV vaccine this spring after FDA inspectors uncovered alarming manufacturing
violations at their Pennsylvania production facility. The recall affects lots
(31:57):
that were distributed between January and March of this year
to pediatricians' offices in college health centers across the US.
Internal documents revealed that vaccines may have been compromised by
multiple serious issues, including bacterial contamination, temperature failures with shipping
(32:17):
exposing to extreme heat, and quality control lapses where there
is missing documentation for critical sterilization checks. Shockingly, this marks
Merk's third quality control incident with Gardasil since twenty twenty two.
So if you're looking for this that it's even more
concerning that the recall itself.
Speaker 3 (32:38):
How it's been handled.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
There's been no public announcement for mercer or from the
FDA and only posted on FDA's weekly Enforcement Report, and
parents they were only notified if their doctor proactively checked
the lot numbers. So if you're looking for this, you
make in your kids have had the vaccine. You may
consult with your PDA attrition on this. All right, doctor Bob,
(33:02):
have you seen this? What's going on with Murk? It's
been a year after year this happens.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Well, it goes beyond that. The guard to cell vaccine
is a horrible thing to begin with, it can the
side effects can be worse than the disease itself. Most
of these involvements that happened why they give guard to
cell with, you know, in response to the whole schedule
(33:30):
of vaccines. These infections, these viral infections will usually typically
go away in their own and they do. There are
many many different strains of HPV, and this particular vaccine
is a horribly terrible vaccine that can cause gian Braves disease,
which is a neurological disorder. I've seen it in patients
(33:53):
who have unfortunately ill advised took the vaccine. There, you know,
the parent got aired into thinking that somehow their child
was going to have this problem. They went ahead with
the vaccine with their doctor's recommendation, they developed this neurological paralysis.
Not a good thing. I think people before they choose
(34:15):
to do this on behalf of their child to get
this guard to cell vaccine. Even outside of the fraud
that's going on outright over it or the contamination that
you're talking about, it's just a bad vaccine, and not
enough people know how dangerous the vaccine is to begin with.
That's just one side effect. So you add that with
the fraud that's been going on and the hiding of
(34:38):
the information now and you see the reason these media
groups you're not hearing anything because they make money off
of the guard to sell vaccines commercials on television. So
of course they're going to bury it. You just got
to follow the money trail on this stuff. Doctor Brockman,
M M correct.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
I think we got Let's try to get to one
more question, Doctor Bob from Victoria from Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Speaker 6 (35:00):
Victoria, Hot Springs, Arkansas. Supposedly I have been told that
I have high blood pressure. Wait, high cholesterol. Excuse me,
just wondering I'm doing the change in the food that
I was wondering if there was something else you could recommend.
Thank you, we love your show.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
All right, Well, thanks for recall Victoria. It's wonderful to
hear from you from Hot Springs. I appreciate your kind
words about the show, and we're here to help you.
So high cholesterol. It's a common issue that many people face,
and it's great that you're taking those proactive steps. Some
things to focus on is soluble fiber. Incorporating foods that
are rich in soluble fiber can help. That help lower
(35:40):
the LDL that's a bad cholesterol. So foods like oats, beans, lentils, fruits,
especially the fruits like apples and citrus, they're excellent choices.
I also want you to consider increasing your healthy fats.
Not all fats are created equal. Aim to replace saturated
fats that are f in red meat, in full dairy,
(36:02):
full fat dairy with healthier unsaturated ones that are found
like in olive oil, avocados and nuts, and of course
fatty fish like salmon or mackerel Omega three fatty acids
from these sources can also provide additional heart benefits. And
with that being said, limit those trans fats the cautiousness
of those that are found in those processed foods like
(36:24):
baked goods or snacks that are labeled with this partially
hydrogenated oils. Those flats raise those fats, they raise the
LDL cholesterol and it lowers your good cholesterol to HDLs significantly.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
So those are ones you want to avoid.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
A couple other things is to increase physical activity and
get regular checkups and consult with professionals when needed.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Remember that every individual responds differently.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
To dietary changes, so find what works best for you.
You are listening to the Doctor Bob Martin.
Speaker 12 (36:54):
Shown stand Bite.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
And welcome back doctor Adam Brockman here, and you're tuned
into the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
We've reached the home stretch.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
In with that, we're gonna go ahead and get into
our health mystery of the week this week, it's a
mystery of Disappearing antibodies. It was January twenty twenty three,
when Sarah, a thirty two year old pediatric nurse from Austin,
received her fourth COVID nineteen booster shot. As a healthcare worker,
(37:47):
she had diligently followed all CDC recommendations, getting vaccinated early
in stay up to date with boosters. Her medical records
show strong antibody responses after each previous dose until now
six months later, during routine pre surgery blood work, her
doctor made a startling discovery. Sarah's COVID antibodies were completely undetectable,
(38:11):
and she thought this can't be right. But the real
shock came when Sarah's husband, Mark, who had declined vaccination
but contracted COVID naturally in twenty twenty two, underwent testing
at the same time. His antibody levels remained robust nearly
two years post infection. This phenomenon isn't unique to this couple.
Across America, doctors are reporting similar cases that challenge conventional
(38:35):
wisdom about this immunity or what we're being told. Doctor Chen,
a immunologist from Northwestern's Memorial Hospital, has documented forty seven
such cases in his practice alone. We're seeing vaccine, he says,
we're seeing vaccine induced antibodies vanished like ghosts, while natural
immunity carries on. This pattern is this pattern is too
(38:59):
consistent to ignore, he says. In new research may hold
some clues. A leak Pfizer study shows mRNA vaccine efficiency
drops below fifty percent after just three months, and Swiss
researchers published finding suggesting that mRNA vaccines may alter immune
cell behavior long term. In the Cleveland clinic, data found
(39:21):
those with more boosters actually had higher reinfection rates. Perhaps
more troubling are reports from emergency rooms nationwide where fully
boosted patients keep returning every few months. While new COVID
infections are re emerging in them and their unvaccinated partners,
(39:41):
they recover basically illness free. Sarah's story it took another
strange turn when she developed unusual fatigue and brain fog
following her antibody disappearance, so symptoms that mirror other reports
of immune exhaustion in these multiply boosted in individuals. The
most frustrating part is that no one warned her that
(40:05):
these would happen.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
She says.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
Indeed, public health officials have been silent about these waning
immunity studies completed just last year. As this medical mystery deepens,
in cases of these numbers grow, three critical questions emerge.
That is, why is natural immunity outlasting artificial protection, what
are the long term effects of repeated mRNA boosting? And
(40:28):
when will the health agencies address these concerning patterns. So well, folks,
we've ripped the band aid off the vaccine today, exposing
the truth about them immunity mysteries in a medical system
that too often puts profit before patients. This is doctor
Adam Brockman for Doctor Bob Martin. You've been listening to
the Doctor Bob Martin Show.

eight twenty two. It's the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Good day to you, and welcome to the Doctor Bob
Martin Show, where we don't just question the system, we
dismantle it with facts in a little humor. I'm your
co host, doctor Adam Brockman, nature medicine physician, health truth
teller and ready to shake the healthcare system with you now, folks,
before we dive into Florida's new vaccine approach that's got
(01:24):
big Pharma sweating. I need you to do something for me.
Grab your phone. We want to hear from you on
the line today. Call eight hundred six zero six eight
eight two to two. That's eight hundred six zero six
eight eight two to two, and let your voice shake
the walls of Washington. Are you cheering for Florida's vaccine
mandate repeal like it's the Boston Tea Party of medical freedom?
(01:47):
Are you watching this unfold like a bad episode of
the CDC's Greatest Blunders. Maybe you've got your own horror
story about being strong armed into a medical decision, whatever
it is. Call us at eight hundred six zero six
eight A two to two, and if.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
You miss us, no sweat.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Just jump over to doctor Bob dot com, where you
can catch every episode plus submit your questions for doctor
Bob and myself to tackle.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
That's doctor Bob dot.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Com spelling out the word doctor docto r Bob dot com,
or by calling eight hundred six zero six eight eight
two to two. And I want to go ahead and
bring doctor Bob into this because this conversation it's it's
a pandemic in the country, and it's something that maybe
we don't hear about. It's medical tyranny. Doctor Bob, what
what are your thoughts on what's shaken down in Washington
(02:39):
and throughout the country, especially in Florida now too.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Well, it's a situation that should have happened a long
time ago. The big farm and big food organizations and
companies have had their way with the regulators of the
system long enough to the dismay of the consumers, us citizens,
(03:03):
and it's time that that's rained in. And now it
looks like that's happening finally, thanks to the leadership of
the Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior,
and of course his appointment by the Trump administration, things
are going to finally get looked at. They're going to
be analyzed, They're going to be balanced in terms of
(03:25):
the science behind them rather than the politics behind them
and the money that drives those decisions that happen with
respect to health regulations and the food supply in the country.
So I'm glad to see what's going on. I'm very happy.
I didn't think I'd see it in my lifetime, but
it looks like it's unfolding. There's been a lot of
resistance to it, a lot of pushback when you have
(03:48):
people who have dedicated their lives to fraudulent activity and
cushy jobs where they do nothing but nod their heads
like sheeple for big pharma and big food. When suddenly
that becomes disrupted, that money chain, people start screaming, you know,
(04:12):
for the removal of Robert F. Kennedy Junior. And hopefully
that will not happen. It should not happen, And I'm
hoping that the momentum that he has generated so far
continues to move forward.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
And well, doctor Bob Florida just dropped the mic on
vaccine mandates, and the establishment is having a meltdown. They're screaming,
but herd immunity, but the children. And meanwhile, these guys
in the government, these senators in congressmen, they've spent decades
(04:48):
ignoring natural remedies, even mocking them like they're some type
of medieval witchcraft.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
And well, that's part of the propaganda that's been part
part of the propaganda that people have brainwashed the the
people have been brainwashed by big pharmacy, by the conventional
medical system, to believe that human beings don't have an
immune system, that all healing happens from the outside rather
than the inside, and that we need some chemical soup,
(05:15):
some chemical conglomeration that drips through a needle to be
jammed into the bodies of young children to the extent
of eighty almost eighty different vaccines by the age of eighteen.
This is unprecedented. This has never happened before. And we
know that it's not benefiting anybody because we have the
sickest nation on the planet. Children's health is circling the drain.
(05:39):
We have higher levels of all kinds of childhood illnesses
relative to that kind of an approach. So it's not
working and it needs to stop, and it's in fact dangerous.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
And so the senators in the congressman, they're just as
guilty of pushing pills like they're candy at a big
pharma parade or something, and gaslighting these parents that who
dare to ask the question.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Hey, what's in the shot? Well, guess what the jig
is up?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Now people are waking up faster than the caffeine IV drip,
and they're demanding the answers like what Robert F. Kennedy
Junior is trying to do. The transparency that no more
hiding data like it's some type of a secret, because
it is a secret. The results that are coming out
are just more. They just buried these the results. What
(06:28):
was it the the one that RFK Junior talked about
with the hepatitis. Yeah, yeah, the hepatitis and and the
autism with African American boys, And that was a study
in two thousand and two that they had something like
two hundred and fifty percent more likelihood to develop autism
from the MMR vaccine. So it's not attack on the
(06:50):
vaccines as much as the safety of vaccines. And so
getting this choice back and letting doctors and patients parents
decide what's best, not not the government official that is
paid by Pfizer with a stock portfolio and the accountability.
He's said, if you've been wrong for fifty years, you
(07:11):
don't get to keep your job.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
So it's not a left or right.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
It's about health and not the hysteria, which is what
the Senate is trying to make it right now.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah, it's really about freedom. It's about autonomy of one's body.
It's about saying, look, if I want to have a vaccine, fine,
that is my choice. But I'm not going to force
it upon my neighbor to have a vaccine. If that
neighbor does not feel that their child is going to
benefit by that vaccine, that's been the problem, and that
is the forced upon us based on the conventional medical model,
(07:44):
being bought and paid for being the wholly owned subsidiary
of Big Pharma. All these medical organizations who believe and
try to pull the woe over our eyes and say
that they're protecting American health, it's a bunch of garbage.
The CDC has failed, the am MAY has failed, the
FDA has failed, and that's why we need to go
in and clean house and get all that cancer out
(08:05):
of there and get some new life in there that
can actually do the right thing for the right reasons
for our citizens.
Speaker 5 (08:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Absolutely, And what Florida is doing is a really it's
groundbreaking and it's a decision that's rocked the nation. So
I want to go into that a little bit more
with the listeners. I want everybody to picture this humid
September morning in Tallahassee and then the air is thick
with this tension. We don't know what's going on here.
And Governor Ron Desanda steps up to the podium and
(08:34):
he's flanked by a surgeon general, doctor Joseph Latipo, and
the cameras flash as he drops this bombshell that would
send shockwaves through the hospitals, the schools, and living rooms
across America. He says, Florida is ending all vaccine mandates
for children. No more measle shots for school, no more
polio requirements, and certainly no government telling parents what medical
(08:58):
choice is to make for their kids. Of course, vaccines
are still recommended, but they're not forced. And here's where
it gets even juicier. Doctor Lattipoe doesn't just announce the change,
heat compares vaccine mandates to slavery, and the room erupts,
and Twitter's exploding, and pediatricians they're clutching their's thethoscopes in horror.
(09:19):
And just like that, Florida becomes the first state in
modern history to completely unravel decades of public health policy
in one swoop. Now, before everybody decides, is a triumph
or a disaster, wouldn't happened? Let me make you sure
you know the behind the scenes of this historical moment
and why it matters more than what you might think.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
And this is Florida light in a match.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
You know that term, that medical slavery, the SoundBite that
set everything on fire. I want Phil, can you go
ahead and play that audio.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
Ship with the governor is going to be working to
end all vaccine mandates in Florida.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Lack all of them, all of them.
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Every last one of them is wrong and drips with
disdain and slavery. Okay, who am i as a government
or anyone else, or who am I as a man
standing here now.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
To tell you what you should put in your body.
Your body is a gift from God.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
What you put into your body, what you put into
your body is because of your relationship with your body
and your God.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
I don't have that right. Government does not have that right.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
All right, doctor Bob, when we come back from break,
I want to discuss this a little bit more. When
Latipoe leaned into that microphone, he declared that mandates were
dripping with disdain and slavery.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
He wasn't just making headlines.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
He was throwing gasoline on an already raging cultural war
over vaccines. So when we come back, I want to
get your opinion on this. You're listening to the Doctor
Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
I must stay conscious.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
Through the unspen case, so I call on my angels.
Speaker 8 (11:13):
Listen, lease, welcome back.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
You're listening to the Doctor Bob Martin Show. I'm doctor
Adam Brockman. And remember, if you've got health related questions
or about nutrition or anything in between, our toll free
hotline is always open at eight hundred.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Six zero six eighty two to two.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
That's where two license position, Doctor Bob and I were
standing by to help you unlock your best self. That's
eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to two.
All right, doctor Bob, let's get back into it. Before
the break, we played an audio of doctor Latipoe, the
Surgeon General of Florida. He's saying, go ahead and remove
in the vaccine. He made a very powerful statement there
(11:55):
in his argument. It's simple, no government should have the
power to force met decisions on families. And parents are
cheering and medical doctors panicked, and suddenly every news channel
had some new to scream about this. But let's be real,
this wasn't some spur of the moment stunt. DeSantis has
(12:16):
been building towards this for years, positioned himself as the
anti mandate crusader since COVID turned vaccines into a political dynamount.
Doctor Bob, what are your thoughts on these changes in
these powerful statements that are taking place out of Florida.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Well, what comes to my mind when I think of
doctor Latipole, the surgeon General, a medical doctor from the
state of Florida. I think that he's one brave, honest individual.
He is enlightened. He has studied the science, not taken
the bribes. Because when you look at the money trail,
(12:53):
this goes deep. I mean we're talking. The reason the
media is also finding ways to rain this in is
because they are benefited by it. The media receives major Denario,
major money from the pharmaceutical companies to push the entire
conventional medicine agenda of more vaccines for everyone, all the
(13:17):
time until you're cradle to the grave. So this is
going to affect them. Now, this is nothing new. This
is something that the chiropractic profession has been concerned about
for almost sixty maybe seventy five years, and that is
forcing people to have vaccines when they don't want them.
(13:40):
It should be an autonomy situation where you have control
of your health. You make the decision about your body
because that's your choice. That's the freedom that we are
bestowed as being American citizens, and that freedom was taken
away from us many many decades ago by conventional medicine.
(14:01):
They took it away in the form of forcing parents
to get vaccinating in their children, even if they didn't
want to for fear that they couldn't enter school so
they couldn't go into a public school systems that mandated
that these children had to be up to speed on
their vaccine schedules. They also forced doctors to go against
(14:23):
their hippocratic oath, even if they had some indifference to
vaccinating or recommending vaccines for children that they were treating
that they were responsible for. The conventional medicine boards of
Examiners threatened doctors' licenses if they didn't follow their standard
(14:43):
of practice in recommending and or delivering the full monty
of these vaccine schedules, up to eighty vaccines by the
time you're eighteen years of age, which we know little
or nothing about. This has not been thoroughly in completely
studied childhood vaccines yet. We have allowed this to occur. Well,
(15:05):
this is all coming to an end, and the beginning point,
the set point is with this brave surgeon general in
the state of Florida and the governor of Florida. I'm
happy to see it. I hope hopefully it'll become a
trend in the United States. And looking back five years
from now, we're going to go, yeah, that was an
era that was a disaster. Just like the COVID thing
(15:27):
was a disaster that was an acute disaster. This has
been a chronic disaster. And I think that Americans should
have a lot of glee in this knowing that this
problem looks like it's going to be solved once and
for all.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Yeah, and it's a shift back to the people.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
The parents have the power again, at least in Florida,
and hopefully it does spread. And I know you're like myself.
We're both doctors, and we spent years fighting for the
patient and giving them the tools to be what you said,
for years, be their own best doctor. And I'll say
what most physicians won't, and that's government mandates have no
(16:08):
place in health care decisions. And here's why this is
a watershed moment for medical freedom, what's happening in Florida?
And also, please, before you blow up the phone lines,
I'm by no means anti vaxx. My kids get vaccines,
but on our schedule and choice, which is exactly what
Florida is saying here. Vaccines, they've saved lives, but the
(16:30):
complete disaster of COVID has opened many people's eyes to say,
wait a minute, why have we been giving our kids
nearly one hundred vaccines? If you start to add in
all these COVID boosters and everything else, when we ourselves
only just had a few growing up. It's a great question,
and now we're demanding those answers. Florida is just one
(16:50):
of the first states to say, yes, parents, you are
right to have questions. Yes, parents, you're right to want
to choose what you're putting in your kids. So this
is this is one of those watershed moments I think
we're going to look back on in a few years
and say, hey, I think I think we were right
to have questions.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
It was a struggle for Robert F.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Kennedy to sit in front of that Senate Harry, and
that was some we definitely, I think we need to
discuss that a little bit further detail, doctor Bob, in
the future. But I think we're standing on something that
we're going to get that medical freedom back, and that's
that's important prospect in here. And so the bottom line
Florida's policy it trusts parents over politicians and lobbyists. That
(17:36):
terrifies the establishment because again, we're shifting the power back
to the people. Will some make choices that maybe we
don't disagree with absolutely, but freedom isn't free. It requires
accepting that others might live differently than you. So the
real question why are we okay with big pharma having
more say over our kid's body than we do? So
(17:57):
I think that's going to be the future there, doctor Bob.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
I agree, Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Okay, let's go ahead and get into our health alternative
of the week. All right, Our health alternative of the
(18:25):
week is elderberry syrup. It's nature's ultimate am moon booster.
So before you reach for that flu shot or rush
to the pharmacy at the first sin of sniffles, I've
got a secret weapon your grandparents swore by. It's one
that big farm I hopes you'll forget. This week's health
alternative isn't just effective it's been battle tested for centuries.
(18:46):
It's Elderberry syrup, the anti viral power house that is cheaper, safer,
and often more effective than over the counter medicine. Elderberry
isn't just some folklore. It's one of the most researched
natural remedies on the planet. Here's what peer reviewed studies reveal.
It cuts flu duration in half and that's a twenty
(19:07):
sixteen Universe of Sydney study. It blocks viral entry by
its bioactive compounds coat virus particles and prevent them from
hijacking yourselves, and it fights inflammation. Elderberry suppresses overactive immune
responses like you might have heard of the cytokin storms
that make illnesses work. It's like giving your immune system
(19:28):
a GPS to hunt down the invaders. So this is
how to use it. At first sign of illness. For adults,
take one tablespoon every three to four hours until the
symptoms ease, and for kids two years and above, one
teaspoon two times daily. And if you want to do
it preventative care, take one teaspoon daily during cold flu season,
(19:50):
which is October through March, and you can also pair
it with zinc. About fifteen to thirty milligrams per day
and enhances Elderberry's virus blocking abilities.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
You can also add it.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
To smoothies after your workouts to combat exercise induced immune
for dips. And then it's a travel must have for me.
If you are scared of those airport germs, just use
two teaspoons before flying. It builds a shield.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
So folks, what you what you want to do with
this is use.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
It at any first sign of sickness, but you can
also use as a preventive measure. It also has a
little bit of risk if you have a pregnancy. It's
a maybe stick to just the culinary doses. And then
also it may overstimulate your immune system if you have
autoimmune conditions. But the final thought, Nature's pharmacy wins again.
So my clinics, I've seen Elderberry outperform Tama flu for
(20:40):
mild flu cases without the nausea dizziness. It's proof that
sometimes the best medicine grows on trees. This week, ditch
it's the fear and brew up a batch of Elderberry syrup.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Your immune system.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Well, thank you, you're listening to the Doctor Bob Martin.
Speaker 9 (20:53):

needs to leave the faith.
Speaker 10 (21:07):
When a taking you.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Money, you info.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Welcome back to doctor Adam Brockman here as we return
to the Doctor Bob Martin Show, America's number one health

I want to remind you your wellness journey continues even
when we're off air. First, our physician team is always

All available twenty four to seven at doctor Bob dot com. Now,
before we get back into our conversation, doctor Bob, let's
(21:56):
talk about something most people dread, and that's the dentist chair.
That moment when they peer into your mouth and you're praying,
they don't say we need to talk. Well, here's my
not so secret weapon. That's the spray dental defense system.
This is what my entire clinical team, my family, Doctor
Bob and his family, and yes, even my dental hygienis
(22:18):
used to keep our mouths in check. Here's the game
changer for Spry. It's xylotol. It's a plant based powerhouse.
It's not just sweet, it's a full on dental bodyguard.
It fights cavities and knocks out plaque, and it kicks
bad breath to the curb and Spry it packs it
with every product, their toothpaste, their mouth rents, their gum,
(22:40):
in their mints. They flavors like peppermint, cinnamon and spearmint,
all the flavors you love with none of the guilt.
So my routine I brush with Spry toothpaste, I rinse
with Spry mouthwash, and I pop a piece of Spry
gum after meals. It's like having a dental hygienist in
your back pocket. And the best part, no drastic habit
(23:02):
changes are needed. You just swap what you're already using
for Spry and let the xylotol work its magic. So
imagine your dentist leaning back and saying, whatever you're doing,
keep doing it. That's the Spry effect, and you'll find
it at CVS right aid target sprouts in natural grossers
pretty much anywhere good oral care lives. If you want
(23:24):
to know more, head over to clear dot com. Let's
spind out the word clear X L E A R
dot com. They're the same geniuses behind clear nasal sprays, which,
by the way, belong in your wellness arsenal too. So
the bottom line, if you want a mouth that's as
healthy as it is fresh, it's time to go spry
your teeth in your dental hygienis well. Thank you, all right,
(23:47):
doctor Bob. Let's go ahead and get to our health
outrage of the.
Speaker 11 (23:51):
Week each time for the health outbridge, because it's nothing fun.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
All right.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Our health outrage of the week is how CVS care
Mark allegedly defrauded Medicare. If you ever filled a prescription
at CVS or use their care Mark insurance services, this
story will hit close to home. This week, one of
America's most trusted pharmacy chains found itself in hot water
to the tune of two hundred and ninety million. That's
(24:29):
the penalty of federal judge ordered CVS care Mark to
pay after ruling the company as has recklessly overcharged Medicare
for prescription drugs. The case reads kind of like a thriller,
complete with falsified reports, ignored warnings in a courageous whistleblower
who refused.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
To stay silent.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
So let me walk you exactly through what happened, because
this isn't just about CBS. It's about how easily the
healthcare system can be exploited and who pays the price
when it is so. The story begins with Sarah Benke,
as she was a former actuary at Etna, which owns
care Mark. Back years ago, she noticed something troubling. The
(25:10):
numbers care Mark was reporting to Medicare didn't add up. Specifically,
the company was allegedly inflating drug cost in its financial disclosures,
leading Medicare to overpay by an estimated ninety five million.
Benke did what few have the courage to do. She
filed a whistleblower lawsuit under the False Claims Act and
(25:31):
accused care Mark of fraud. For years, her case wound
up through the courts while CVS denied any wrongdoing. Then
this past June, Chief Judge Goldberg delivered a bombshell ruling.
Judge Goldberg didn't just side with ben Ke, he tripled
the damages owed to by care Mark from ninety five
(25:51):
million to nearly two hundred and ninety million. In his decision,
he wrote that while there was no proof CVS executives
knowingly committed fraud, they showed reckless disregard for the truth
by failing to verify their reports. It's a legal distinction
with huge implications. Even if you don't intend to deceive.
(26:12):
Turning a blind eye to errors can cost millions of
dollars for these companies, which it should. And because interest
is still occurring on that penalty, CBS bill grows every
day that they delay this payment. So at the heart
of this case is a little known but critical part
of healthcare. It's a pharmacy benefit manager like care Mark.
(26:33):
These companies act as middleman between drug makers, insurers and
pharmacies and they set prices, They negotiate rebates and decide
where drugs are covered in how they're covered under insurance plans.
And here's where it went wrong. Care Mark submitted incorrect
what is known as numericals, the dirs in reported to
Medicare Part D and documents. They track how much pharmacies
(26:58):
actually pay for the drugs in reimburse insures that, so
by allegedly inflating these numbers, they made it seem like
their costs were higher than they really were, so Medicare
reimbursed them more than was what was necessary. So it
wasn't one time era, it happened hundreds of times over years.
So in short, they reportedly rigged the system so taxpayers
(27:19):
would foot an extra ninety five million dollar bill money
that could have gone towards lowering drug costs or expanding
healthcare access for seniors, doctor Bob. So this isn't just
something that happens with big pharm at the Senate or
our state level. This happens across the board, even with pharmacies.
(27:39):
What is going on here and.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
We need the this this sort of was some of
this stuff was uncovered by Elon Musk, all the fraud
and the excess spending. It's opened up that Pandora's box
for all the right reasons. I'm glad that these sort
of things are being exposed because it's been going on
for a long long time and nobody has been, you know,
(28:05):
actively trying to solve the problem. So I'm glad to
see that they were fined. I think it was a
slap on the wrist. It's sort of like, you know,
you make trillions and you get a little one hundred
thousand dollars million dollar penalty. Yeah, they'll take that all
day long.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Well, doctor Bob, I think we have time for a
color question. Let's get to before the break here, let's
get to Jack from Iowa.
Speaker 10 (28:33):
My name is Jack. I'm calling from Iowa, and this
is my question. I'm eighty seven years old and I
have what I call shaky legs syndrome. My legs and
my feet shake all the time. My hands that have
somewhat too, and I'd like to know what there What
there is all to the problem is some thank you
(28:57):
for taking my call?
Speaker 2 (29:00):
All right, thank you for your call, Jack, and shaking.
Our tremors can arise from various underlying conditions, especially as
we age. So here are some possible causes that may
explain what you're experiencing. One being essential tremors. This is
the most common movement disorder affecting older adults. Essential tremors
typically cause rhythmic shaking in the hands and may also
(29:22):
affect other body parts like the legs in a voice.
It often occurs with movement or when you're under stress,
other things that need a further testing may be Parkinson's
and even medication side effects. If you're taking any medications,
especially those for blood pressure or psychiatric conditions, it's worth
reviewing them with your doctor. All right, So giving your
(29:43):
age and symptom profile, it'd be wise to consult with
your doctor who specializes and maybe neurology for an accurate diagnosis.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Tailored specifically to you.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
All right, Thank you Jack that you're listening to the
Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
So you dad, I'm a busshom a number signon.
Speaker 9 (30:17):

And let's dive back into our conversation with our product
(31:13):
recall of the week. All right, so we're sticking with
a theme here and this breaking story about Merk quietly
recalling two hundred and twenty eight thousand doses of the
HPV vaccine.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Over sterile concerns. Okay.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
In a move that received virtually no media attention, pharmaceutical
giant Merk initiated a voluntary recall of over two hundred
and twenty eight thousand doses of guard to sell nine
HPV vaccine this spring after FDA inspectors uncovered alarming manufacturing
violations at their Pennsylvania production facility. The recall affects lots
(31:57):
that were distributed between January and March of this year
to pediatricians' offices in college health centers across the US.
Internal documents revealed that vaccines may have been compromised by
multiple serious issues, including bacterial contamination, temperature failures with shipping
(32:17):
exposing to extreme heat, and quality control lapses where there
is missing documentation for critical sterilization checks. Shockingly, this marks
Merk's third quality control incident with Gardasil since twenty twenty two.
So if you're looking for this that it's even more
concerning that the recall itself.
Speaker 3 (32:38):
How it's been handled.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
There's been no public announcement for mercer or from the
FDA and only posted on FDA's weekly Enforcement Report, and
parents they were only notified if their doctor proactively checked
the lot numbers. So if you're looking for this, you
make in your kids have had the vaccine. You may
consult with your PDA attrition on this. All right, doctor Bob,
(33:02):
have you seen this? What's going on with Murk? It's
been a year after year this happens.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Well, it goes beyond that. The guard to cell vaccine
is a horrible thing to begin with, it can the
side effects can be worse than the disease itself. Most
of these involvements that happened why they give guard to
cell with, you know, in response to the whole schedule
(33:30):
of vaccines. These infections, these viral infections will usually typically
go away in their own and they do. There are
many many different strains of HPV, and this particular vaccine
is a horribly terrible vaccine that can cause gian Braves disease,
which is a neurological disorder. I've seen it in patients
(33:53):
who have unfortunately ill advised took the vaccine. There, you know,
the parent got aired into thinking that somehow their child
was going to have this problem. They went ahead with
the vaccine with their doctor's recommendation, they developed this neurological paralysis.
Not a good thing. I think people before they choose
(34:15):
to do this on behalf of their child to get
this guard to cell vaccine. Even outside of the fraud
that's going on outright over it or the contamination that
you're talking about, it's just a bad vaccine, and not
enough people know how dangerous the vaccine is to begin with.
That's just one side effect. So you add that with
the fraud that's been going on and the hiding of
(34:38):
the information now and you see the reason these media
groups you're not hearing anything because they make money off
of the guard to sell vaccines commercials on television. So
of course they're going to bury it. You just got
to follow the money trail on this stuff. Doctor Brockman,
M M correct.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
I think we got Let's try to get to one
more question, Doctor Bob from Victoria from Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Speaker 6 (35:00):
Victoria, Hot Springs, Arkansas. Supposedly I have been told that
I have high blood pressure. Wait, high cholesterol. Excuse me,
just wondering I'm doing the change in the food that
I was wondering if there was something else you could recommend.
Thank you, we love your show.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
All right, Well, thanks for recall Victoria. It's wonderful to
hear from you from Hot Springs. I appreciate your kind
words about the show, and we're here to help you.
So high cholesterol. It's a common issue that many people face,
and it's great that you're taking those proactive steps. Some
things to focus on is soluble fiber. Incorporating foods that
are rich in soluble fiber can help. That help lower
(35:40):
the LDL that's a bad cholesterol. So foods like oats, beans, lentils, fruits,
especially the fruits like apples and citrus, they're excellent choices.
I also want you to consider increasing your healthy fats.
Not all fats are created equal. Aim to replace saturated
fats that are f in red meat, in full dairy,
(36:02):
full fat dairy with healthier unsaturated ones that are found
like in olive oil, avocados and nuts, and of course
fatty fish like salmon or mackerel Omega three fatty acids
from these sources can also provide additional heart benefits. And
with that being said, limit those trans fats the cautiousness
of those that are found in those processed foods like
(36:24):
baked goods or snacks that are labeled with this partially
hydrogenated oils. Those flats raise those fats, they raise the
LDL cholesterol and it lowers your good cholesterol to HDLs significantly.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
So those are ones you want to avoid.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
A couple other things is to increase physical activity and
get regular checkups and consult with professionals when needed.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Remember that every individual responds differently.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
To dietary changes, so find what works best for you.
You are listening to the Doctor Bob Martin.
Speaker 12 (36:54):
Shown stand Bite.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
And welcome back doctor Adam Brockman here, and you're tuned
into the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
We've reached the home stretch.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
In with that, we're gonna go ahead and get into
our health mystery of the week this week, it's a
mystery of Disappearing antibodies. It was January twenty twenty three,
when Sarah, a thirty two year old pediatric nurse from Austin,
received her fourth COVID nineteen booster shot. As a healthcare worker,
(37:47):
she had diligently followed all CDC recommendations, getting vaccinated early
in stay up to date with boosters. Her medical records
show strong antibody responses after each previous dose until now
six months later, during routine pre surgery blood work, her
doctor made a startling discovery. Sarah's COVID antibodies were completely undetectable,
(38:11):
and she thought this can't be right. But the real
shock came when Sarah's husband, Mark, who had declined vaccination
but contracted COVID naturally in twenty twenty two, underwent testing
at the same time. His antibody levels remained robust nearly
two years post infection. This phenomenon isn't unique to this couple.
Across America, doctors are reporting similar cases that challenge conventional
(38:35):
wisdom about this immunity or what we're being told. Doctor Chen,
a immunologist from Northwestern's Memorial Hospital, has documented forty seven
such cases in his practice alone. We're seeing vaccine, he says,
we're seeing vaccine induced antibodies vanished like ghosts, while natural
immunity carries on. This pattern is this pattern is too
(38:59):
consistent to ignore, he says. In new research may hold
some clues. A leak Pfizer study shows mRNA vaccine efficiency
drops below fifty percent after just three months, and Swiss
researchers published finding suggesting that mRNA vaccines may alter immune
cell behavior long term. In the Cleveland clinic, data found
(39:21):
those with more boosters actually had higher reinfection rates. Perhaps
more troubling are reports from emergency rooms nationwide where fully
boosted patients keep returning every few months. While new COVID
infections are re emerging in them and their unvaccinated partners,
(39:41):
they recover basically illness free. Sarah's story it took another
strange turn when she developed unusual fatigue and brain fog
following her antibody disappearance, so symptoms that mirror other reports
of immune exhaustion in these multiply boosted in individuals. The
most frustrating part is that no one warned her that
(40:05):
these would happen.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
She says.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
Indeed, public health officials have been silent about these waning
immunity studies completed just last year. As this medical mystery deepens,
in cases of these numbers grow, three critical questions emerge.
That is, why is natural immunity outlasting artificial protection, what
are the long term effects of repeated mRNA boosting? And
(40:28):
when will the health agencies address these concerning patterns. So well, folks,
we've ripped the band aid off the vaccine today, exposing
the truth about them immunity mysteries in a medical system
that too often puts profit before patients. This is doctor
Adam Brockman for Doctor Bob Martin. You've been listening to
the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
