'Trust the Science' is One of the Most Unscientific Statements - Dr Aseem Malhotra with Karl Stefanovic ... Aseem Malhotra, discusses Donald Trump and RFK Jr’s approach to childhood vaccinations, why he believes every medical intervention should come with genuine informed consent, and why he says doctors need to be more transparent about the risks, benefits and uncertainties surrounding treatment. He also takes aim at the pharmaceutical industry, questions the independence of medical regulators, and delivers a provocative challenge to conventional thinking around cholesterol and statins. Malhotra reflects on the mistakes made during COVID, arguing that governments and medical authorities need to admit where they got things wrong if public trust is ever going to be restored. He also weighs in on Anthony Fauci, the polarisation of left and right, the psychology behind the pandemic response, social media’s role in fuelling anger, and why he believes Australians and Britons need to find a way to debate without becoming trapped in opposing camps. Plus, Malhotra explains why he changed his own position on COVID vaccines and why he believes changing your mind can be one of the hardest – but most important – things a person can do.

He says he is campaigning anyway, because the people who lose are the founders, the employees paid in equity, and the young investors buying ETFs to save for a deposit. In this conversation with Quillette Editor-in-Chief Claire Lehmann, he argues that Treasury never modelled the behavioural consequences. Why it is now in a company's interest to pay out all its earnings rather than reinvest, why a young investor is better off trading than holding, and why a technology founder who had offered a returning expat five per cent of his company now has to offer ten ...
