The ancient Greeks had a name for this pattern...

Editor's note: ...long before pharmaceutical cartels existed. In the Iliad, Apollo is introduced sending plague into the Greek camp, and the same god is worshipped elsewhere as Paean (the healer or Greek physician of the Gods); because the Greeks understood that whoever sends the sickness and whoever offers the cure can be one and the same power. It is a way of trying to understand the nature of the pharmaceutical industrial complex today where the people who are positioned to cause the most harm and the people positioned to profit from curing it are drawn from the same small pool, funded by the same money, and protected by the same revolving door. None of this necessarily requires personal corruption from every individual involved. It requires a monetary system where money, career advancement, and public health decisions are tied incestuously together closely enough that greed does not need to be hidden. It only needs to be normalized. The Greek pharmakon, a word that meant drug, remedy, and poison all at once are contained within the ingredients of a Pentagon and Moderna planned Covid injection that has led to "premeditated murder."

FDA regulators (regulatory capture) and pharmaceutical cartels operate inside an opaque financial loop that rewards cooperation over scrutiny. About 65% of the FDA's drug review budget comes directly from industry user fees (pay offs), meaning the agency depends financially on the drug companies it is supposed to police. Roughly a quarter to over half of FDA reviewers who worked on drug approvals eventually leave for jobs at the same pharmaceutical companies (see The "Expert" From the FDA Who Sits On Pfizer's Board), and nine out of ten recent FDA commissioners have gone on to work in the industry. Research shows this pattern is not neutral: reviewers in senior positions who later move to industry tend to approve lower quality drugs while still at the agency, and companies that hire former FDA staff see higher approval rates and rising stock value as a direct result.

Faster review times, pushed along by industry funding, have been linked to more serious adverse drug reactions. The clearest individual example is Curtis Wright, the FDA reviewer who approved OxyContin in 1995 with label language downplaying its risk of misuse, and who took a $379,000 a year job at Purdue Pharma about a year after leaving the agency. On the funding side, Moderna's mRNA vaccine technology was seeded years before COVID by DARPA, the Pentagon's research arm, which gave the company its first grants in 2013 specifically to build vaccine platforms for future pandemics. That dual nature, the one who wounds is the one who can heal, is a very old Greek motif.

DARPA seeded Moderna with a $0.7 million grant in March 2013, then followed with up to $24.6 million more, years before the company had ever brought a single product to market. That money came from the Pentagon, not a health agency, funneled through a biodefense program built to counter engineered and natural threats. By 2020, HHS's BARDA had escalated that bet with up to $1.4 billion to push the same mRNA platform through emergency authorization. DARPA itself has publicly taken credit, stating on its own website that the first coronavirus vaccine to enter human trials came directly from its investment. A technology platform born inside a military research budget was sold to the public as a straightforward medical breakthrough, with little scrutiny of where the money actually started or who benefited most from how fast it moved.

It's telling how precisely today's pharmaceutical industry has recreated that old Greek arrangement, an institution that profits from both the sickness and the cure, except now the myth wears a lab coat instead of a temple robe, and the same instinct that once demanded faith in oracles now demands faith in institutional science, a pattern reaching back thousands of years long before anyone called it religion. Here is what could best be described as Apollo delivering the wound and the cure from the same hand, and Hermes makes sure both are for sale:

 

 

Nearly half of measles cases in the US are among MMR-vaccinated people

By Rhoda Wilson | August 17, 2026

44% of diagnosed measles cases are among people who received the MMR vaccine. School mandates rely on the argument that the immunocompromised will be exposed unilaterally by the unvaccinated; this is clearly not the case, James Lyons-Weiler writes.

Additionally, vaccinated people can transmit the measles virus to others – and the vaccine-induced infection is not the same as the wild-type virus.

What's Going On with the MMR Vaccine? 44% of Measles Cases in Colorado Transmission Chain Were Vaccinated People

About the Author

Introduction

In a recent opinion piece for The Wall Street Journal, US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") Principal Deputy Director Ralph Abraham argued that "framing measles as an American policy failure is inaccurate and misleading," asserting that resources including vaccines and therapeutics have been surged nationwide and that the current measles situation reflects broader global trends rather than a uniquely domestic policy breakdown.

Citing a recent Measles, Mortality Weekly Report ("MMWR") article, Abraham hinted that something else was failing. He fell short of mentioning waning immunity or vaccine failure.

The fact that 44.4% of secondary measles cases in the Colorado outbreak occurred in people who had received two documented doses of measles, mumps, and rubella ("MMR") vaccine contrasts with long-standing expectations that, under high-intensity exposure within a defined transmission chain, secondary cases would be overwhelmingly concentrated among the unvaccinated rather than distributed so evenly across vaccination status. This is epidemiologically notable.
