, and featured a YouTube video, falsely claiming the drug was"approved by the FDA." Lindgren Functional Medicine obtained thymosin alpha-1 from both Tailor Made Compounding and Wells Pharmacy Network according to its owner, Dr. Kristen Lindgren.
When NPR brought up the fact that thymosin alpha-1 has never received FDA approval, she said,"I'm sure you know how I feel generally about the FDA." Asked for what she meant by that comment, Lindgren replied,"I'm gonna take the Fifth on that." When asked if she was concerned about possible enforcement from the FTC or FDA, she replied,"honestly, no."
The FTC has issued more than 300 warning letters related to a wide array of alleged Coronavirus scams, three of which dealt with thymosin alpha-1. In a statement, Rich Cleland, Assistant Director for the FTC's Division of Advertising Practices, said,"The scope and magnitude of the FTC's efforts to stop the marketing of fraudulent COVID-19 treatments is unprecedented."
No idea what THIS med is but do know NPR Fauci FDA & CDC neglect when u lie that there are no treatments for COVID cost the US 100K lives & will be included in eventual class-action suits. We now have what will be for you an embarrassment of riches already used by many.
Hopefully Trump doesn't talk about. Otherwise, NPR will be against it.
So this “doc” says she prescribed this drug she views as harmless so people would feel like they were doing something to fight covid. The article notes these “docs” charge around $400/month for the injections. Patients doing something, “docs” raking in $$$.
I call Europe, international community, journalists and influencers not only to speak up, but also to ACT... By generalizing you are encouraging erdogan and aliev. StopAzerbaijaniAggression StopAliyev StopErdoghan AvoidGeneralizing
Here's an idea: don't go to fake doctors.
Is this some sort of scientific mumbo-jumbo for placebo? Anyone who claims injections of this did anything positive for them would have likely fared the same with saline injections.
Just 30 practices of doctors that is all? When there are millions practices in America.
Have you been prescribed thymosin alpha-1? If so, we'd like to hear from you. Reach out to TomDreisbach with your story.
The placebo effect is real. This stuff, or whatever 'vaccine' you endorse.
Big red flag! She sounds like a profiteer.
There’s no solutions for the liberal media unless Biden wins. Then all of a sudden anything goes.
Nor have they approved the flawed PCR tests being used whose results are being utilized to ruin the economy and lives while empowering the govt to remove liberties.
fda gov good news eternal life Jesus maybe a freak roll them dice
This seems unethical
'20 gajillion people died on Trump's watch' 'Discredit any drug that may save lives by 'crackpot wellness's doctors' This is , and we'll be right back after a word from our sponsors.
WHERE IS YOUR REPORTING ON JIM COMEY AND HIM GETTING RIPPED?! WHERE IS YOUR REPORTING ON HUNTER BIDEN WHERE IS YOUR REPORTING THE TRUTH?!
I'm not taking any RUSHED version of any COVID vaccine. I'll wait until DOCTORS say it is safe then I'll worry about getting it.
How does the nocebo kill you..
these doctors on television should be fined, lose their licenses to practice and also the licenses of the stations that let these shows be viewed should come under scrutiny
This guy is great. I agree with him on this.
I’ve heard from some very smart people that injecting bleach does the trick.
No shit, it's probably mongoose oil mixed with Gwyneth Paltrow's piss
'An NPR investigation has identified more than 30 medical practices in more than a dozen states promoting unproven claims that the drug thymosin alpha-1, which is administered via injection, can prevent or treat COVID-19.' Ads for a COVID drug? Smh. $$ grab.
These 'doctors' should have their licenses revoked
TrumpCovid19Catastrophe
There's no such thing as a 'wellness doctor' One is either a doctor, or one is not.
Lol...putting goop and 'wellness' in the same group. Scientists have openly reported on the pseudo science and harm from them. DefundNPR DefundPBS
GOOP GANG
This will be the next bullshit Trump tries to promote. TrumpLiesAmericansDie
Perhaps, but do the injections smell like Gwyneth's vagina?
not safe no clinical trials no thank you
Anti-intellectualism is rampant in this country, and because of that patients are turning back to the snake oil salesmen of old.
I’ve seen a lot of well respected wellness doctors subscribing to the Qs conspiracies and some even endorsing Trump. Like Dr. Northrup. And as everything else these days you need to be skeptical and do your research.
So they are injecting people with...Goop?
Ssshhhh! If Trump hears he will start promoting it.
At RISK? Are you kidding us, it could possibly kill us!
In a ship of fools, the craziest ones rule.
Add this to onthemedia’s story on wellness links to Q and one wonders if they serve any good purpose at all.
I think FDA is making “a political move.”
There will always be snake oil. There will always be people that swear by snake oil.
How long until Trump embraces it and pushes it as a miracle cure ?
Shouldn’t it be more like...A group of wellness “doctors”
If they’re connected to Goop, I feel like you should have put wellness “doctors” rather than “wellness” doctors but that’s just me.
Witch Doctor cures
