Guest Post by Dr. Joseph Mercola
Over the past year, I’ve been researching and writing as much as I can to help you take control of your health, as fearmongering media and corrupt politicians have destroyed lives and livelihoods to establish global control of the world’s population, using the COVID-19 pandemic as their justification.
I’ve also kept you informed about billionaire backed front groups like the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), a partner of Bill Gates’ Alliance for Science, both of whom have led campaigns aimed at destroying my reputation and censoring the information I share.
Other attackers include HealthGuard, which ranks health sites based on a certain set of “credibility criteria.” It has sought to discredit my website by ensuring warnings appear whenever you search for my articles or enter my website in an internet browser.
Well-Organized Attack Partnerships Have Formed
HealthGuard, a niche service of NewsGuard, is funded by the pharma-funded public relations company Publicis Groupe. Publicis, in turn, is a partner of the World Economic Forum, which is leading the call for a “Great Reset” of the global economy and a complete overhaul of our way of life.
HealthGuard is also partnered with Gates’ Microsoft company, and drug advertising websites like WebMD and Medscape, as well as the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) — the progressive cancel-culture leader with extensive ties to government and global think tanks that recently labeled people questioning the COVID-19 vaccine as a national security threat.
The CCDH has published a hit list naming me as one of the top 12 individuals responsible for 65% of vaccine disinformation on social media, and who therefore must be deplatformed and silenced for the public good. In a March 24, 2021, letter1 to the CEO’s of Twitter and Facebook, 12 state attorneys general called for the removal of our accounts from these platforms, based on the CCDH’s report.
Two of those state attorney generals also published an April 8, 2021, op-ed2 in The Washington Post, calling on Facebook and Twitter to ban the “anti-vaxxers” identified by the CCDH. The lack of acceptance of novel gene therapy technology, they claim, is all because a small group of individuals with a social media presence — myself included — are successfully misleading the public with lies about nonexistent vaccine risks.
“The solution is not complicated. It’s time for Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to turn off this toxic tap and completely remove the small handful of individuals spreading this fraudulent misinformation,” they wrote.3
Pharma-funded politicians and pharma-captured health agencies have also relentlessly attacked me and pressured tech monopolies to censor and deplatform me, removing my ability to express my opinions and speak freely over the past year.
Why I’m Removing Important Content
Remember Hitler and Mussolini came to power LEGALLY, because they subverted the legal structures of their country. Folks you are seeing it in real time now in America. It is obvious that there is a massive assault designed to remove your personal freedom and liberty.
What This Means for You
Through it all I have refused to succumb to these front groups and pharmaceutical thugs and their relentless attacks. I have been confident and willing to defend myself in the court of law, as I’ve had everything reviewed by some of the best attorneys in the country.
Unfortunately, threats have now become very personal and have intensified to the point I can no longer preserve much of the information and research I’ve provided to you thus far. These threats are not legal in nature, but if you can imagine what upset billionaires and their front groups are capable of, I can assure you they’ve deployed assets to get creative and force me to remove this content.
I cannot elaborate about these events in detail at the moment, so please be patient while the situation cools down and the world and this country are in a place where debate can occur without such endangerment.
So, effective immediately, much of the information on my website relating to COVID-19 will be permanently removed. Again, you are seeing, in real time, the destruction of the First Amendment of freedom of speech. It has evaporated and no longer present in the United States.
Sadly, I must also remove my peer reviewed published study4 on the “Evidence Regarding Vitamin D and Risk of COVID-19 and Its Severity” from my website but it will remain in the highly respected journal Nutrients which can still be accessed for free on the journal’s website.
The MATH+ hospital treatment protocol for COVID-19 and the iMASK+ prevention and early outpatient COVID-19 protocol — both of which are based on the use of vitamins C, D, quercetin, zinc and melatonin — are available on the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance’s website. I suggest you bookmark these resources for future reference.
It is with a heavy heart that I purge my website of valuable information. As noted by Dr. Peter McCullough during a recent Texas state Senate Health and Human Services Committee hearing, data shows early treatment could have prevented up to 85% (425,000) of COVID-19 deaths.5 Yet early treatments were all heavily censored and suppressed.
McCullough, in addition to being a cardiologist and professor of medicine at the Texas A&M University Health Sciences Center, also has the distinction of having published the most papers of any person in the history of his field, and being an editor of two major medical journals. Despite that, his video, in which he went through a paper he’d published detailing effective early treatments, was summarily banned by YouTube in 2020.
“No wonder we have had 45,000 deaths in Texas. The average person in Texas thinks there’s no treatment!” McCullough told the senate panel.6 Indeed, people are in dire need of more information detailing how they can protect their health, not less. But there’s only so much I can do to protect myself against current attack strategies.
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended. But it is not easy nor inexpensive to do so, especially when those who wish to prevent us from making the truth known, attack us without mercy on all fronts on a daily basis. So each time you visit the site, I would ask that you consider the value that you receive and have received from The Burning Platform and the community of which you are a vital part. I can't do it all alone, and I need your help and support to keep it alive. Please consider contributing an amount commensurate to the value that you receive from this site and community, or even by becoming a sustaining supporter through periodic contributions.

My doctor and I discuss what I do to maintain my health and to make course adjustment as necessary and not the internet……
I dont trust my doctor any more or less than i trust mitt romney
Less…
Unfortunately your doctor doesn’t know everything. There’s nothing wrong with online research for viable alternatives to your good health, not just covid related. I like my doctor too, but he’s been on me for years to go on statins to lower my cholesterol. I tell him I’ve had 3 heart-scans in 25 years and ZERO calcium buildup in any of my arteries. I’m VERY healthy and been running for 24 years. I ask him why I need statins. He says…because you fit the profile, they can’t hurt you, etc…I explain to him I’m 64 have ZERO heart disease and have a statistically a VERY low risk of a heart attack. Then he shuts up.
Same with me Freddy in UK. My good doctor, and he was good before he retired, pushed Statins at me for ages as well as the flu shot. Like you, I kept telling him that as a disgustingly fit 73 year old (then), I have no need of his drugs. But like you say – I fitted the profile – jeez – too much scientism.
And I now discover that the PSA test for prostate cancer that my quack keeps testing for is only 25% effective – mostly false positives – then you go for an unnecessary radium treatment which knackers your immune system and bingo – you’re dead of Covid!
My neighbour caught Covid in November last – he was 74 and healthy – still surfed the waves at his age. He had had the radium treatment (PSA 7) in the March of last year – IMHO that’s what killed him in January 2021.
Your average doctor probably knows more than an ignorant patient, but less than a well-informed patient.
I know more about gout than any doctor I’ve ever met.
What does he/she say about COVID in general and the vaccine in particular? Serious question.
Our Long time, very traditional Dr. said ‘it will all be over after the election’ (he was wrong but was a way of saying fake), and the receptionist said they had not seen ONE COVID case, July 2020. This is a well known practice/locally. .
I just read (we’ve since moved) that this practice (going since 1940s) is moving their office out the hospital complex. They say that while they have always been independent from the hospital they want to be sure people KNOW they are independent. Hmmmm
Sounds interesting, right?
I have a story of my own about this hospital.
I remember the introduction of Obama care with Republicans touting the creation of “Death Panels” that would decide your health care and make decisions for you. I’m sure it was propaganda at the time. But. Here we are.
If you wanted a primer in “How best to make a viral epidemic worse” look no farther than what our CDC and Tony Fauci advocated for most of 2020 and 2021.
Could be explained by the epidemic of obesity in this country.
First they came for Dr. Mercola and I said nothing …
Ahem….
Then, they came for the turtles.
Dr. Mercola,
I cannot thank you enough for the brave stand you have taken to keep us informed of the truth related to COVID-19. You need not apologize for having to remove the material that is offensive to the agents of tyranny in this country. I have been reading your new book “The Truth About Covid-19.” It is informative, honest and will help people to cope better with this health ‘crisis.’ Most disturbing is the cavalier way that other human beings are experimenting with dangerous pathogens and the carelessness with which they conduct their research. It is only a matter of time before a real deadly pandemic strikes us. What is very important is the information you convey on the most valuable protocols in fighting these types of viruses and how we can boost our natural immunity. We do not need to walk around in our six foot masked worlds to stay safe from these kinds of communicable diseases. What a sad world that would be. Many people recognize your good work and we are thankful for your efforts. Keep the books coming.
Here, here well said and more yells of appreciation 🙂
hear! hear!
OH I always get it wrong – one of those mind-fucks you get when age takes over:
“Hear, hear vs. here, here
Hear, hear (usually with a comma and set apart as a self-contained sentence) is the conventional spelling of the colloquial exclamation used to express approval for a speaker or sentiment. It’s essentially short for hear him, hear him or hear this, hear this, where these phrases are a sort of cheer.
Here, here is widely regarded as a misspelling, although it is a common one, and there are ways to logically justify its use. But for what it’s worth, hear, hear is the original form (the Oxford English Dictionary cites examples going back to the 17th century) and is the one listed in dictionaries. English reference books mention here, here only to note that it’s wrong.”
Thanks Machinist
I like to write “Hear Here!” to make it more confusing, if possible.
Nice – I will join you!
From a crusty old Yank to a crusty old Limey. Cheers!
Crusty maybe, but not rusty yet!

Just wash your hands thoroughly before touching any food you eat. Don’t rub your eyes with unwashed hands.
Never lick your fingers, no matter how good the food is.
Simple as that.
Contact with germs is vital to your health. Instead of hiding from them and constantly washing them off our bodies. That kind of behavior that you mention is a facet of OCD. The fact is that our bodies are surrounded by and infused with germs, microbes and bacteria that protect us. They need to have contact with the environment to keep us healthy. Natural immunity is the way to go. The germ theory of disease has long been overthrown by the science of the ‘microbiome.’
I figure my mask that gets stuffed in my pocket or in the center console of my truck is dirty enough that if I can survive using it, I’m ok. Since the start of the plandemic I have tried to go mask free like every flu season since I was born.
I hear you…me too.
The hygiene hypothesis, as it’s called, says that our immune system needs to spar with relatively harmless germs and foreign substances in its earliest years so it can calibrate itself. Or in other words, growing up in a “dirtier” environment such as a farm actually boosts our immune system and physical health. Plenty of research has shown that growing up in rural environment is associated with lower rates of autoimmune disorders, but now a new study has found that it might even be better for our mental health.
a MUST watch (if you have not seen it)
The man was a genius.
For fedup

and here’s Polly styrene to sing it for you
Don’t give rimjobs either. Just sayin
It seems when something like this happens they can never tell us ‘everything’ because of usually a lawsuit but here it seems to be safety. Then it’s never heard of again, or if it is it totally buried because they are out of the news by the time it’s all over.
I’m not in his shoes, and don’t blame him at all, but does he imagine he’s safe if he basically gives in?
He’s pretty old and you know how people die all of the time like the PCR Test Nobel prize winner…
I would also like to point out one of the reasons there has been so much belief in the fakedemic, masking etc is the rise of so many ‘health’ nuts and continuous bombardment of natural health remedies, actions and the HUGE market of vitamins perhaps even rivaling the pharmaceutical companies.
I’m sure there’s a movement underway for the pharmaceutical companies to own the ‘health’ market (which they probably do already) and you can see their machinations to take over the CBD (pot) market here in Montana (buying up the small startups that got it going for one).
Another thing is why do we think taking vitamins is actually good? Once you get into it it’s like, It’s in A must be taken with vitamin D, at 3:00 in the morning or it is peed out type thing (made up for an example).
I recently read a book called Nourishment (usually don’t read foodie stuff but it has a great cover).
This guy is saying there really ISNT a vitamin D deficiency.
Remember when they said fat was bad for you and don’t eat eggs, butter, meat but fake stuff like margarine?
Why do you take vitamins, drink protein shakes, ad nauseum….
Think about it is all I’m saying.
I am not against looking at natural remedies at all, just like I’m not against regular doctors or medicine in general. However it’s obvious to me everything must be examined, as much as possible, for scams, misinformation, snake oil, etc.
Not just accepted because it seems logical (everyone does it), and once again from ‘experts’. They may be fooled too.
Another is when the book came out, Born To Run, about the sports shoe industry. Cushy shoes seemed like a no brainer for comfort, but were they really? Became a huge industry, too.
Mercola is an osteopath. Make of that what you will.
I have a friend who is an osteopath (lives in Texas) and a g.p. He is one of the best informed physicians I know, along with a Spanish M.D., Ph.D (neurophysiology), head of psychiatry at a med school, etc. Not once has the latter ever disagreed with opinions of the former. I trust them both, although that’s not the same as a blanket endorsement of osteopathy per se.
Carrie Madej is also an osteopath who speaks against this hoax, and is gorgeous to boot. I’ve listened to her many times. Check her out sometime.
I had to see a D.O. when I was in a car wreck (someone hit me; I’ve never), and he was pretty good; though I have limited experience with doctors having been luckily healthy thus far, so he might have been the worst D.O. in history, I don’t know.
It’s like the old joke: What do you call a doctor who was last in his class in med school? Doctor.
Anyway, having said all that, I’m not a huge Mercola fan either.
idiot
Bet you go to chiros, too.
Osteos are only a tad above chiros on the legitimacy scale. But if it suits your narrative you will swallow any swill. Me, I prefer better sources.
DOs are licensed, medical doctors, no? Nope never been to a chiro, or even a massage parlor. Like I said before…
No they are not medical doctors. MDs they are not. I prefer better sources Han osteos. But drink the swill. Yum yum, right?
Licensed practicing physicians. Rocks in your head.
So you are saying I am right. I already knew that.
You said they are medical doctors. They are not. You have no idea what you were talking about. If you talk about something you should get your facts straight.
Instead of looking shit up after you spout off bullshit, you should know what you are talking about first.
I wasn’t going to even bother to respond, but I like you insist on getting the last word.
Of course they are medical doctors. they practice medicine. They don’t practice as a PhD would. PhDs don’t practice medicine, i.e. psychiatrist v psychologist. You luv to parse words, and flop on ideas and context.
Medical doctor is a precise term. MD is the degree. Osteos are not medical doctors as much as you keeping saying it, and if any of them so claim they can end up in a world of shit.
https://medschool.ucla.edu/body.cfm?id=1158&action=detail&ref=1019
Both MD and DO physicians are licensed by the same state licensing boards and held to the same requirements for practicing medicine. Both can prescribe medications and treat patients in all 50 states. While DO doctors tend to become general practitioners, they may pursue careers in any chosen specialty, including surgery.
Falcon, you can keep pushing stupid, but if a DO makes the claim he or she is a medical doctor, they are in deep legal shit. What you keep posting does not change that fact and the fact that you said they were medical doctors. They are not that.
Just own it – you fucked the goat. And you will not be able to post ANYTHING reputable that says they are medical doctors.
Medical schools for MD is far more selective than for DO. The students are brighter and much more academically successful in general.
Me, I get my info from folks like Ionnidis from Stanford, etc. Osteos? Not high on my list of reference sources.
Folks like you pick whatever source suits their narratives. Me, I pick the best sources and evaluate those. Things like the Lancet, NE Journal of Medicine, Ionnidis, etc. make my list. Osteos? Not so much.
I point out the background of the source, and people lose their minds, because it does not suit their narratives. He may be right in what he says, but he is not a premium source in my opinion.
Modern chiropractic works, but its really mostly just PT.
Research says modern chiropractic does not work save for a couple of specific issues.
Which issues? I’ve avoided surgery because of good chiropractic care.
You’re the poster child for being pedantic.
You know you’re over the target when you starting taking anti-aircraft artillery.
The evidence for taking Vit-D is convincing. Like 93% of ICU patients are Vit-D deficient.
Could be. I gave that book I mentioned above to my sis so I can’t look it up. However it seems like he said something about how they measure vitamin D. Changed fairly recently, and even the reason why it changed was not made scientifically.
Do I know if what he said is true? No, but it hadn’t really come up for me to study further until this fakedemic.
I can add I am not recommending this book wholeheartedly. I enjoyed the science part and the studies as a biologist he did. I thought his personal philosophy was for the most part …. how shall I say, silly. For instance he believes in macro evolution. Sigh. And the usual salad bowl thoughts.
A lot of us have been forced to do this since 2017.
Like war, it’s a racket. The end game is what’s not talked about that much. I repeat this too often, but it’s about controlling people.
And that right there, the deliberate suppression of a robust scientific debate RATHER THAN PROVING THEIR CASE is why my BS meter has completely exploded.
This deliberate suppression of debate occurred very early, by April 2020 at least.
I am not sure that even stacks of dead people killed by the vaccine will be enough to shake people out of this religious mania.
VAERS is about to break the 4000 mark for deaths caused by these mRNA vaccines.
Nothing to see here! Move along!!!
Sounds to Moi that “someone” wants WE THE PEOPLE to shoot first in the coming CIVWAR 2.0……..
As a matter of DISCLOSURE Ive only read the FIRST section of the Doctors article.
YES! I’ll read the WHOLE thing in a couple of hours……It seems seems to Moi that I already know what the DUMBTARDS are doing and saying!!
