402 — Sofia Karstens on Truth, Science, and the System That Silences Both

Author: Doctor Podcast Network October 27, 2025 Duration: 53:39
In this episode, Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh sit down with activist and advocate Sofia Karstens to uncover the story of Dr. Bernice Eddy, a pioneering NIH scientist who warned about flaws in the original polio vaccine—only to be silenced. Together, they explore how Eddy’s whistleblowing shaped modern vaccine safety debates, the links between viruses and cancer, and the parallels to today’s medical freedom movement.
