A leading U.S. oncologist has delivered a scathing indictment of the pharmaceutical industry, accusing major corporations of knowingly sacrificing lives for profit.
Dr. Kathleen Ruddy, a veteran medical oncologist, claims her firsthand experience within Johnson & Johnson exposed a chilling corporate calculus: let patients die rather than fix a faulty surgical device because settling lawsuits was cheaper than saving lives.
“They are avaricious, homicidal, genocidal—and they do not care,” Dr. Ruddy stated in a recent commentary that has ignited widespread debate.
Dr. Ruddy recounts how executives opted to pay millions in hush-money settlements to victims, deliberately burying life-threatening safety issues to shield company profits. She argues that this pattern of behaviour re-emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic, when pharmaceutical giants pushed out “untested” and “ineffective” vaccines.
“Big Pharma ignored decades of science for speed and profit,” she said, asserting that the industry’s actions during the pandemic further highlight its disregard for public welfare.
Dr. Ruddy’s comments have fuelled growing calls for a fundamental reassessment of the pharmaceutical industry’s role in shaping public health policy. “When lives are at stake, we must remove these corporations from the conversation,” she warned, arguing that their science is compromised and their ethics nonexistent.

I wonder how a medic like her can practice for 30 years and now telling that story.
Guess one has to make a living as best as a medic can do these days.
I hope she lives long enough to give evidence in front of a court.
Better late than never I guess.
I think the medical political climate bought on by the COVID “pandemic” (epoch) has resulted in normal people loosing faith and trust in the medical system, to where we are now receptive too / listening for / more involved in hearing this type of content.
And where Big Pharma and Big Medicine can no longer silence their critics.
Apart from what the ‘Medical Council’ are trying on with Dr Bailey family.
Even when the Council no longer have jurisdiction. And the Crown / NZ govt are complicit in perpetuating it too.
