Former President Donald Trump has chosen Dr. Oz (who supports science denier RFK Jr to lead Health and Human Services) to run the massive departments of Medicare and Medicaid that will affect the lives of millions of Americans. The Los Angeles Times and Business Insider noted Dr. Oz has a history of lying:
In a 2015 letter to Columbia University, where Oz is a professor, 10 doctors said he promoted “quack treatments and cures in the interest of personal financial gain.” A 2014 study in the peer-reviewed British Medical Journal found that of 40 randomly selected episodes from Oz’s television show, his health recommendations were based on evidence just 46% of the time…
Oz pushed hydroxychloroquine to fight the coronavirus, even though its effects were still unproven.
Oz repeatedly claimed that raspberry ketones are ‘the No. 1 miracle in a bottle to burn your fat.’
Oz has said astrological signs “may reveal a great deal about our health.”
Oz told viewers that green coffee extract “has scientists saying they’ve found the magic weight-loss cure.”
