The AMA’s Contribution to the Opioid Epidemic
In October 2020, opioid manufacturer Purdue Pharma pleaded guilty to three felony counts of criminal wrongdoing and agreed to an $8.3 billion settlement with the Department of Justice over their production and marketing of Oxycontin and other opioid drugs.1
“The abuse and diversion of prescription opioids has contributed to a national tragedy of addiction and deaths, in addition to those caused by illicit street opioids,” said Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey A. Rosen in a news release.2 In 2019, opioid overdoses were responsible for nearly 50,000 deaths in the U.S., with the misuse of and addiction to opioids described as a national crisis.3
The pandemic has only worsened the crisis. From December 2019 to December 2020, there were 93,331 estimated overdose deaths in the U.S., which represents a 29.4% increase in 12 months.4 Opioids, including oxycodone, hydrocodone and morphine, accounted for the majority of deaths — 69,031 — followed by synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl and tramadol.5
The most recent data on opioid overdose deaths can be viewed via the CDC’s 12-month provisional number of drug overdose deaths by drug or drug class dashboard — due to a small percentage still pending investigation, numbers may change slightly upon final analysis.6
On their website, the American Medical Association (AMA), whose mission is to “promote the art and science of medicine and the betterment of public health,”7 states that its Opioid Task Force is “committed to providing evidence-based recommendations and leadership to help end the opioid epidemic.”8
However, as detailed in a Mother Jones exposé, AMA has a long, cozy relationship with Big Pharma, including Purdue Pharma. “The prestigious doctor’s group has made it virtually impossible to discern where public health guidance ends and industry interests begin,” writer Julia Lurie writes in Mother Jones.9
‘How to Create an Addict Education’
In 2007, Purdue Pharma pleaded guilty to felony charges of misbranding with intent to defraud and mislead the public and physicians about Oxycontin’s dangers.
Several months later, the AMA released their new pain management training program, which included 12 modules about prescribing narcotics, including that doctors were too
tentative to give patients these pills and “the effectiveness of opioid therapy may be undermined by misconceptions about their risks, particularly risks associated with abuse and addiction.”10
Even children were included in the materials, with an outline to physicians of how to help the young verbalize their pain. “Do not give children an option for zero hurt,” it read. Lurie spoke with Dr. Roneet Lev, chief medical officer to the Office of National Drug Control Policy from 2018 to 2020, who looked through the training modules and said, “I would call this ‘How to Create an Addict’ education.”11
The training course was first released in 2003 and updated over the next 10 years. At the time, then-AMA president Dr. Donald Palmisano stated12,13 there “has been growing recognition that the undertreatment of pain is a major societal problem … As the spotlight shines on a few struggling with addictions, the AMA is determined to ensure that the plight of patients suffering in silence from chronic pain (nearly 75 million U.S. residents) is not lost.”
Big Pharma commonly funded continuing medical education, using it as a marketing tool to influence physicians. Further, while AMA’s code of medical ethics states that such education should be free from financial conflicts of interest, AMA’s pain management training program was developed by a team with close ties to the industry. Dr. Russell Portenoy, one of Purdue’s long-time paid speakers, was among them.
According to Mother Jones:14
“[Portenoy] argued that opioids were a ‘gift from nature’ that were being underused due to ‘opiophobia’ among doctors. Dr. Charles Argoff, a course adviser, received more than $600,000 from opioid manufacturers over a three- year period, a Senate report15 would later find.”
Purdue Gave Millions to the AMA and Its Foundation
Purdue Pharma’s AMA ties went way beyond training programs and included more than
$3 million in donations to the AMA and the AMA Foundation from 2002 to 2018.
“While the AMA stopped receiving funding from Purdue in 2007,” Mother Jones reported, “it continued to offer the Purdue-funded pain management course until at least 2014, and the AMA Foundation didn’t stop accepting donations from Purdue until 2018 — well after the opioid crisis had morphed into a full-blown epidemic.”16
Part of the foundation funding was used to make prescription medication safety programs for kids, which were used in schools and on social media. With the AMA seal of approval on Purdue Pharma’s materials, it promotes product sales. The grants to the AMA Foundation also meant that Purdue Pharma executives got to attend the Corporate Roundtable twice a year, giving them direct access to AMA leadership.
Sackler Sat on AMA Foundation’s Board
The Sackler family, owners of Purdue Pharma, made it onto Forbes’ Top 20 billionaires list in 201517 — in large part due to the burgeoning sales of OxyContin. Richard Sackler, who served as the president of Purdue Pharma, was a member of the AMA Foundation’s board of directors from 1998 to 2004.18
The AMA also runs The Physician Masterfile, which is a database of all the practicing physicians in the U.S., along with their specialties, addresses and other information. Health information companies, licensed by the AMA to use the data, sell it to pharmaceutical companies. According to Mother Jones:
“The data is invaluable to drug producers: By matching up the Masterfile with prescribing data collected from pharmacies, pharmaceutical companies are able to create a prescribing history for every doctor in the country and target potentially lucrative prescribers.
This is, in fact, exactly what Purdue did. The pharmaceutical giant maintained a contract with IMS Health, a market research company co-founded by Richard Sackler’s uncle Arthur. The AMA sold Physician Masterfile data to IMS Health, which, in turn, provided Purdue with detailed prescriber information.
‘Using this precise, AMA-enabled tracking data, Purdue was able to direct its sales effort toward high prescribers of pain medications, enabling an army of 1,000 Purdue reps, backed by a first-year marketing budget of $200 million, to descend on these soft targets,’ wrote medical historian Mike Magee in his 2019 book about medical profiteering, Code Blue.”
The Sackler family will pay $4.2 billion toward the opioid settlement lawsuit — $500 million upfront and the rest paid in installments over a decade.19 With that, they are hoping to win immunity from any future opioid lawsuits.20
AMA Owns, Operates and Profits From CPT Codes
Current Procedural Terminology, or CPT, is a set of five-digit codes used for billing medical procedures and services individually. The codes are used by Medicare and other insurers and provide an incentive for physicians and hospitals to perform more procedures. The complexity of the system necessitated software and billing companies that specialize in CPT codes, each of which pays the AMA for a license to do so.
AMA even has a hand in determining how much each procedure is worth, known as the Resource-Based Relative Value Scale, giving them immense control over U.S. health care. Mother Jones reported:21
“Now, every year, doctors representing each specialty gather at the AMA headquarters in Chicago to go over new procedures and to haggle over their worth. The AMA then sends the proposed values to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which, the vast majority of the time, accepts them.
A recent BMJ article22 put the arrangement and its impact in perspective: ‘With CPT, the AMA had not only found a way effectively to control government involvement in healthcare, it had also developed a way to directly profit from it,’ it concludes.
‘This annual income has allowed the AMA lobby to maintain outsized influence over American healthcare.'”
The AMA has annual revenues of $245 million, of which more than half come from “royalties and credentialing products.” Membership dues, in contrast, make up 8% of their total revenue.23
“All these systems — the CPT, the Resource-Based Relative Value Scale, the Physician Masterfile — have created a steady stream of revenue even as AMA membership as a proportion of all doctors has declined over the past half-century,” Mother Jones reported.
“As of 2019, just 19 percent of practicing physicians were AMA members; nearly half of them were students or residents, who get a discount on the $420 membership fee.”24
AMA Acts as a Trade Group
The AMA is regarded as the preeminent voice in U.S. medicine, looking out for public health, but it uses its commercial profits for political purposes like lobbying. While being dependent on profits from commercial endeavors and receiving heavy funding from Big Pharma, it functions as a trade group while portraying itself as independent, which, Mother Jones notes, is highly problematic:25
“Based on how the AMA bills itself, as the unified voice of medicine, it’s reasonable to expect that the organization would play the role of medical arbiter, helping doctors and the industry more broadly navigate such complicated territory.
‘Most people, if they read in the paper that the AMA says this and that, they think, ‘Well, they must know.’ The assumption is that they’re a neutral source with no interest,’ says Keith Humphreys, a professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford. In reality, he concludes, ‘They’re a trade organization, but they’re not thought of that way.'”
Help for Opioid Addiction
AMA has taken steps to change its message about opioids, including removing Big Pharma funding from their pain management courses. However, Mother Jones explained, “For now, there’s little to suggest the AMA won’t repeat its mistakes if another Purdue comes along.”26
If you or a loved one is struggling with opioid addiction, the Substance Abuse Mental Health Service Administration27 can be contacted 24 hours a day at 1-800-622-HELP. Low-dose naltrexone (LDN), used in microdoses, can also help combat opioid addiction and aid in recovery.
Using microdoses of 0.001 milligrams (1 microgram), long-term users of opioids who have developed a tolerance to the drug are able to, over time, lower their opioid dose and avoid withdrawal symptoms as the LDN makes the opioid more effective.
For opioid dependence, the typical starting dose is 1 microgram twice a day, which will allow them to lower their opioid dose by about 60%. When the opioid is taken for pain, the LDN must be taken four to six hours apart from the opioid in order to not displace the opioid’s effects.

The AMA…
I could write a lot about the AMA. But unfortunately, I’d have to acknowledge or even legitimize them, to bother with that. It’s a 3 letter word. Like DøD.
Anyway, since I can’t write the same sort of jokes they can, I’d highly recommend you to anything they’ve ever said if you want a good laugh regarding your health.
I’d bet, you can do just do a random search like “The AMA is corrupt garbage evidewnce fraud malice worthless” and got all kinds of infinite results as the top hits. I’m not gonna risk that though. The last time I search for the cause of some dead souls that I’m currently attached to, they just kept on asking me “WHO? WHO?”. As if I’m supposed to know.

If you go check, the ONLY time they have good advice (which is around <10% of the time), is when it’s something blatantly obvious.
Like for instance “Sleep better”.
The rest of the time they’re like “More carbs!, less varied amino acids, saturated fats, sodium, so that your sodium AND potassium levels can be dominated by excessive chlorine related dysfunction, coz you probably have deficient magnesium too! BUT THAT DOESN’T MATTER!!! BECAUSE THERE’S ALUMINUM IN VACCINES!!!”

Btw, in say, psychiatry…in shittier sort of hospitals, carbs are VERY pronounced. Why? Because more ethanol and methanol derivatives! That means, any (which is really, any) toxic drugs they give, are worsened by the food in the hospitals. For your health!
Like when you get some fluorinoated benzene phenyl meth shit. But it’s not quite toxic enough, so you make sure the patients are always LOADED on sugars. Coz that helps anything except them.

https://www.pcrm.org/news/blog/american-medical-association-says-dietary-guidelines-americans-should-indicate-meat-and
Ask the AMA why they’ve never really bothered to mention fluoride, iodine relation.
Ask the AMA why they support related institutions that recommend fluoride (though never essential iodine).
“The resolution also states: “1. Our AMA and its Minority Affairs Section will: (a) encourage the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to include culturally effective guidelines that include listing an array of ethnic staples and use of multicultural symbols to depict serving size in their Dietary Guidelines for Americans and Food Guide; (b) seek ways to assist physicians with applying the USDA Dietary Guidelines for Americans and MyPlate food guide in their practices as appropriate; (c) recognize that lactose intolerance is a common and normal condition among many Americans, especially African Americans, Asian Americans, and Native Americans, with a lower prevalence in whites, often manifesting in childhood; and (d) monitor existing research and identify opportunities where organized medicine can impact issues related to obesity, nutritional and dietary guidelines, racial and ethnic health disparities as well as assist physicians with delivering culturally effective care.”
The Physicians Committee’s recommendations for the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans include:
Do not include a low-carbohydrate eating pattern or recommend limiting consumption of carbohydrates.
Recommend water instead of milk.
Warn against consuming red and processed meat.
Continue to promote plant-based eating patterns. "
Almost like the USDA, dominated by GMO, homogenized toxic shit peddlers, dictate them, or at the very least are quite associated.
They sell like, brain damaging fluoride, chlorine, gmo soy, canola oil sort of shit, and like 3 (degenerated) plants that are basically, stagnant, obsolete, inbred. Why do you think that is?
I mean on the surface, it’s like:
“Do not include a low-carbohydrate eating pattern or recommend limiting consumption of carbohydrates. ”
You figure that out. Probably not related with low mineral toxic homogenized foods associated with cancers, diabetes, IBS, etc
Then it’s like:
” Recommend water instead of milk. ”
What water, what milk? Milk tends to have more nutrients relative to the toxins. No mention of clean water or milk, knowing that the values (coz actuaries) of toxicity relative to nutrition in water is typically significantly worse than milk. And if it’s milk, of course, make sure it’s low fat, processed, bleached shit probably (so that it’s closer to the water they recommend).
Ok this is just odd, coz I don’t eat mammals.
“Warn against consuming red and processed meat. ”
You see, I prefer planets. GMO homogenized processed toxified, herbicide, pesticide, xeno, phytoestrogen planets. That lower every given function in your body. Planets so technologically advanced, that th ey are entirely devoid of minerals, as per USDA specifications and consistent entirely of carbohydrates and silica.
Continue to promote plant-based eating patterns. ”
And in a surprising recent study, it turned out the packaging of the food was more nutritious than the supposed food.

Excuse my typing.
“Among the recommendations the DGAC made were that the Dietary Guidelines should urge Americans to cut saturated fat and “eat as little dietary cholesterol as possible.”
Wonderful, worsen your heart, brain, and cellular energy function in general. Saturated fat from what? What toxicity associated? Eating as little dietary cholesterol as possible is a surefire way to die.

Only thing they peddle is undermining propaganda. I do agree with them that “natural immunity” doesn’t exist, per se (coz you can’t be immune to physical factors like excessive toxicity and deficient essentials, unless you’re dead), but then that also means any attempt at supposed immunity is utter bullshit. Particularly if it’s not focused on individual health status, and rather ignorant of those deficiencies and toxicities, related physical processes.

Hey and I was just guessing.
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B9780123741455002680
“The heat shock response (HSR) is an inducible molecular response to a disruption of protein homeostasis that results in the elevated expression of cytoprotective genes that protect the proteome. The four general categories of environmental and physiological regulators of the HSR include: environmental stress, such as heat shock, amino acid analogs, drugs, oxidative stress, toxic chemicals, heavy metals, and pharmacologically active small molecules; cell growth and developmental conditions, including cell cycle, growth factors, development, differentiation, and activation by certain oncogenes; pathology and disease, such as neuroendocrine stress, tissue injury and repair, fever, inflammation, infection, ischemia and reperfusion, and cancer; and diseases of protein conformation including Huntington’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and ALS. The HSR, through the elevated synthesis of molecular chaperones and proteases, responds rapidly and precisely to the intensity and duration of specific environmental and physiological stress signals to restore proteostasis and prevent further protein damage.”
Anyway, I found this random peculiar thing…
Notice it’s called PSYpost.
“Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) are all characterized by clumped, misfolded proteins and inflammation in the brain. In more than 90 percent of cases, physicians and scientists do not know what causes these processes to occur.”

So, about those vaccines.
You would notice there’s often amino acid chain related homology. You would notice autoimmune disease is associated with vaccine related toxicity.
Now, on a scale of reactions to stressors, you have (somewhat retardedly) arbitrarily quantified/classified proteins that result.
For instance, Hsp70 or Hsp90, “alert” the immune cells to the antigens.
You would notice, vaccines feature both protein homology and a “need” for antigen exposure.

And now you’re wondering “So how does that relate to meat?”

“Federal regulations require chlorine treatment of the water supplied to urban and suburban areas of America and much of Canada from surface sources such as lakes, reservoirs and rivers, constituting about 75 percent of water consumed. Water from underground sources generally is not chlorinated unless it is supplemented by surface water. My hometown, Lacey, Washington, and some surrounding communities that are supplied water by Lacey, are fortunate to be among that group; I’d like to see that continue.
Chlorination is inferior water treatment on at least two counts. (1) Although it has greatly lowered infectious waterborne diseases in the U.S.A. and Canada, chlorination fails against a variety of water problems including parasites and can seriously harm people who use the water. (2) Its cost is unnecessarily high. As of 1996, Andover, Massachusetts’ new ozone treatment costs $83 per million gallons of purified water, only two-thirds as much as the old treatment process. The town saves $64,000 annually in chemicals costs alone,1 and uses less electricity.
Chemical Background
Highly reactive chlorine is one of the industrial waste products profitably disposed of using people as garbage cans,8 then on into the environment. Chlorine oxidizes lipid contaminants in the water. It thus creates free radicals,2 (highly reactive atomic or sub-atomic particles lacking an electron) and oxysterols (formed when lipid and oxygen molecules combine).9,10 ”
I’m pretty sure you can figure that out, consider it’s toxic unnecessary waste product, mandated, massively popularized and normalized.
Along with that normalization, it makes the indoctrinated morons less likely to consider it. Also because it sort of reacts, is kinda volatile, disperses a lot.
Final chapter. Out of here.

Similarities cause protein misfolding

Vaccines have very similar, very intentional sort of function as mentioned there.
Aside from that, I did mention the Mad Cow Disease stuff (remember in the UK, you used “high quality” proteins, along with shit like organophosphates, steroids, antibiotics, vaccines and shit like that). Protein similarity with that. Cannibalism in “agriculture”, for the toxified “food” you’re fed, which was fed toxified feed, that was fed, as food, to feed you with.
Sure, that’s an extreme example. HUGE amounts of protein misfolding due to that sort of stuff. Almost any disease you can think of. Vaccines, being a common one.
