AUTOPSY CONCLUDED THAT CARBON
MONOXIDE POISONING LED TO THE
DEATH AF THREE AMERICAN TOURISTS
AT A SANDALS RESORT IN THE
BAHAMAS EARLIER THIS MONTH.
THE FAMILY IS ASKING FOR A
SECOND INDEPENDENT AUTOPSY.
DOCTOR, SHOULD FAMILIES OF THE
VICTIMS BE SATISFIED WITH THIS
REPORT OR SHOULD THEY BE
SKEPTICAL AND WANT A SECOND
AUTOPSY?
>> THEY SHOULD BE A LITTLE
SKEPTICAL THAT TOXICOLOGY
REPORTS HAVE NOT BEEN RELEASED,
SHOULD ASK TO SEE THEM.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING DOES
KILL 400 TO 500 PEOPLE A YEAR.
THERE COULD BE A PLAUSIBLE
MECHANISM OF WHAT HAPPENED.
>> Todd: TRYING TO VISUALIZE
STANDARD HOTEL ROOM.
WHERE WOULD CARBON MONOXIDE COME
OUT OF THE VARIOUS THINGS IN A
HOTEL ROOM?
FIRST INSTINCT IS HEATER, AIR
CONDITIONER, ANYWHERE ELSE?
>> IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A GAS
OVEN OR RANGE COULD RELEASE
CARBON MONOXIDE.
IT COULD BE THERE IS A GARAGE
WHERE CARS ARE PARKED IN THE
BUILDING AND A CHANNEL OF WHICH
THE GAS COULD GO INTO THE ROOM.
>> Todd: WHEN YOU HEARD THE
PESTICIDE THEORY, PEOPLE SAYING
THEY SMELLED PESTICIDE.
CARBON MONOXIDE HAS NO SMELL.
PESTICIDE DOES.
WOULD YOU DO MORE RESEARCH ON
THE PESTICIDE ANGLE?
IF OTHER PEOPLE WERE SMELLING
THAT, THAT COULD BE CAUSE FOR
CONCERN, IN MY ESTIMATION.
>> THAT’S A VERY GOOD POINTS,
TODD.
HAVE YOU TO ASSUME IT IS
ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE.
CARBON MONOXIDE IS COLORLESS
ANDODERLESS, THE PIECES DON’T
FIT TOGETHER.
>> Todd: IF THEY HAD CALLED FOR
HELP, THEY WERE NOT FEELING
WELL, THEY WENT INSIDE AND GOT
TREATMENT.
COULD THEY HAVE BEEN SAVED OR IS
YOUR BODY SO COMPROMISED NOTHING
CAN BE DONE ONCE CARBON MONOXIDE
ENTERS YOUR SYSTEM?
>> CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING
DOES ACT QUICKLY.
WITHIN A MATTER OF MINUTES,
PEOPLE CAN LOSE CONSCIOUSNESS.
THE SOLUTION IS SIMPLE, GET
PEOPLE TO A BETTER AIR SOURCE.
A MATTER OF SECONDS GOOD HAVE
MADE A DIFFERENCE.
>> Todd: COMPLETE TRAGEDY, SO
MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS AT
THIS POINT.
YOU ARE CALLING OUT CDC ADVISORY
PANEL, PFIZER IS LOOKING TO JAB
KIDS AS YOUNG AS SIX MONTHS.
WHY ARE YOU AGAINST THIS PANEL,
DOC?
>> AGAIN, THE BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION’S FDA WAS
COMPLETELY BYPASSED IN CONVENING
THEIR TECHNICAL EXPERTS, THEIRAD
VISERY COMMITTEE.
THOSE ARE TOP VACCINE EXPERTS IN
THE COUNTRY.
MANY SIGNALLED THEY ARE NOT ON
BOARD WITH THIS RECOMMENDATION
TO GIVE A BOOSTER TO 24 MILLION
5-11-YEAR-OLDS.
WHEN YOU MAKE SUCH A SWEEPING
RECOMMENDATION FOR THE ENTIRE
COUNTRY WE WITH SUCH STRONG
VIGOR, ORDERING ALL 24 MILLION
CHILDREN IN THE COUNTRY 5-11 TO
GET A BOOSTER, YOU SHOULD
CONVENE TECHNICAL EXPERTS.
INSTEAD, THEY PUT IT IN FRONT OF
COMMITTEE WELL KNOWN TO FIRE
PEOPLE WHO HAVE DISSENTING
OPINIONS, THEY DID THAT WITH
DR. MARTIN CALLDORLAST YEAR AND
THERE WAS NO CLINICAL DATA TO
SUPPORT THE BOOSTER.
THEY CITED A SMALL STUDY DONE BY
PFIZER OF 140 CHILDREN IN THE
AGE GROUP LOOKING AT NOW
OUTCOME.
INSTEAD THE ANTIBODY BUMP YOU
GET AFTER THE BOOSTER.
THE COMMITTEE SAID WE WANT A
SIMPLE MESSAGE, WE’RE CONCERNED
ABOUT A CONFUSING MESSAGE OF
KIDS ARE NOT GETTING THE BOOSTER
AND OLDER PEOPLE ARE.
THAT IS NOT SCIENTIFIC
RATIONALE.
>> Todd: IT DOESN’T MAKE A LOT
