You can read Stefan's blog here, and the blog post I mention in this podcast is here. After recording this podcast, I was struck by something that I had kind of forgotten about in all the years since moving back to the US f...

We talked about how high-dose Vitamin C has been part of the official protocol for treating Covid-19 in China, and how at least one of his posts about that has been "fact checked" by Facebook (see here for what that looks like.) Larry also has some pretty dismal predictions for what is coming next. It would be easy to dismiss some of these predictions as "crazy conspiracy theories", or whateve...
