The data, facts, and realities of COVID were far away from what the media and public health institutions were presenting to the world at the advent of the pandemic.

And while the controlling narrative was that of lockdowns and fear in response to COVID, organizations like PANDA have been working with some of the top minds in public health, focusing on the hard data and analytics of the pandemic to help save lives.

Returning to the program is Nick Hudson, co-founder of PANDA, who just gave an amazing talk at the inaugural BizNews Investment Conference where he crushed the common myths and misconceptions promoted by pro-lockdown, anti-science politicians and unelected bureaucrats.

What do epidemiologists and immunologist think of Dr. Fauci? What's the story about the COVID variants? Are asymptomatic people a danger to others?

All that (and more) discussed on today's special BONUS episode.

"We needed to lock down out of an abundance of caution. We didn't know what the virus was going to do."

Ya'll have heard that before, right? Well, believe it or not, some of us have been raising the red flag from the very beginning that the government response to COVID (like the government lockdowns) would lead to more unintended long term consequences versus simply letting people/the market adjust.

Today's episode is a highlight of four guests from The Brian Nichols Show who were raising the alarm from the beginning.

180: COVID-19 Pandemic Data & Science that will Save Lives & Livelihoods -with Nick Hudson

COVID-19 is a threat. Yes, it's a very real disease that kills lots of people.

However, the government lockdowns and the related intrusions on civil liberties pose a serious threat not only to lives, but to civilization itself—a threat must be resisted.

At this juncture, the science is quite clear on what key policy responses should be—or should have been. But this is no longer about the science, if it ever was.

What is required now is a mobilization against what is essentially an enormous public relations machine that is fuelling fear and removing agency from people’s lives the world over.

Today's guest is Nick Hudson from PANDA (Pandemics ~ Data & Analytics). PANDA is a collective of leading scientists, actuaries, economists, data scientists, statisticians, medical professionals, lawyers, engineers and businesspeople working as a collective to replace bad science with good science.

We're going back to where we started on today's episode of The Brian Nichols Show, as today I am joined by the first "big guest" on the show (from way back from Episode 7 in Feb. 2018), Dean Clancy!

Dean returns to the show to discuss a venture he's been working on over the past few years, with the end goal of lowering the cost of healthcare.

Dean proposes that the best means to get the ball rollings is via "HSAs for All" which would "give every American access to affordable, high-quality health care by giving every American access to a tax-free Health Savings Account owned and controlled by the patient."

Listen as Dean outlines how an HSA model would work, the benefits of an HSA for All approach, how we actually go about implementing the proposal.
