Dr. Kathleen Ruddy, a seasoned medical oncologist, offers a grave warning about the pharmaceutical industry, shaped by decades of experience and personal encounters. She speaks not from hearsay, but from direct observation, having witnessed decisions made behind closed doors that placed profit far above human life.
Three decades ago, while working near the upper levels of Johnson & Johnson, Dr. Ruddy saw what few outsiders ever do. Executives knowingly permitted a surgical device to remain on the market, despite clear evidence it was harming patients. Fixing the problem would cost more than settling the inevitable lawsuits. And so they chose the cheaper path: allow the harm to continue, pay off the victims, and keep the public quiet. To them, the loss of life was a cost of doing business.
Years later, when the COVID-19 pandemic struck, Dr. Ruddy recognised the same pattern. She did not trust the rapid promises of a miracle vaccine. Coronaviruses, she knew, had always resisted conventional vaccine development. Yet pharmaceutical companies charged ahead, rolling out new products at unprecedented speed, without long-term safety data. The world was told these shots were our salvation, but she feared they were another calculated risk taken at our expense.
Dr. Ruddy’s voice is not one of hysteria but of hard-earned disillusionment. She speaks for many who have seen the inner workings of a system that values quarterly earnings over public well-being. The industry she once trusted has shown itself, in her view, to be driven by greed, immune to guilt, and untouched by the suffering it causes.
Her message is powerful, we must take heed, we must stop treating these corporations as trusted stewards of health. Their influence on science and policy has proven destructive. We cannot continue to allow them to shape the rules when the stakes are life and death.
The question that remains is how long we will allow them to lead, and at what further cost.
Time to wake up.
