Plague of Corruption: Restoring Faith in the Promise of Science (Children’s Health Defense) Hardcover – April 14, 2020
Purchase options and add-ons
“Kent Heckenlively and Judy Mikovits are the new dynamic duo fighting corruption in science.” —Ben Garrison, America’s #1 political satirist
Dr. Judy Mikovits is a modern-day Rosalind Franklin, a brilliant researcher shaking up the old boys’ club of science with her groundbreaking discoveries. And like many women who have trespassed into the world of men, she uncovered decades-old secrets that many would prefer to stay buried.
From her doctoral thesis, which changed the treatment of HIV-AIDS, saving the lives of millions, including basketball great Magic Johnson, to her spectacular discovery of a new family of human retroviruses, and her latest research which points to a new golden age of health, Dr. Mikovits has always been on the leading edge of science.
With the brilliant wit one might expect if Erin Brockovich had a doctorate in molecular biology, Dr. Mikovits has seen the best and worst of science. When she was part of the research community that turned HIV-AIDS from a fatal disease into a manageable one, she saw science at its best. But when her investigations questioned whether the use of animal tissue in medical research were unleashing devastating plagues of chronic diseases, such as autism and chronic fatigue syndrome, she saw science at its worst. If her suspicions are correct, we are looking at a complete realignment of scientific practices, including how we study and treat human disease.
Recounting her nearly four decades in science, including her collaboration of more than thirty-five years with Dr. Frank Ruscetti, one of the founders of the field of human retrovirology, this is a behind the scenes look at the issues and egos which will determine the future health of humanity.

Editorial Reviews
Review
—Dr. Luc Montagnier, 2008 Nobel Laureate for the isolation of the HIV retrovirus
“Kent Heckenlively and Judy Mikovits are the new dynamic duo fighting corruption in science.”
— Ben Garrison, America's #1 political satirist
“What this book teaches you more than anything else is that science is a dangerous game. The notion that science is precise and unambiguous is wrong. When there is doubt, there is the potential for powerful interested parties to make life miserable for a scientist with integrity. Throughout the book, intrigue is seamlessly intertwined with fascinating revelations about the still poorly understood science behind the potential role of retroviruses in mysterious debilitating diseases like chronic fatigue syndrome and autism.”
—Dr. Stephanie Seneff, Senior Research Scientist, MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
“The breathtaking story of an extraordinary scientist who discovered the most likely cause of chronic fatigue syndrome, only to witness a cover-up and character assassination emanating from the highest levels of the scientific community. An incisive critique of what's wrong with science today, and yet a hopeful portrait of how science still has the means to find the truth. It leaves you overwhelmed by the insidious methods and players corrupting science, but hopeful for truth-seekers in the scientific community like Dr. Mikovits who are persevering against all odds.”
— J.B. Handley, co-founder of Generation Rescue and author of How to End the Autism Epidemic
“This book is a jaw-dropping excursion through the lies of Big Money, Big Government and Big Pharma. God bless Dr. Mikovits for her courage in sharing this story!”
— Max Swafford, author and educator
"Anthony Fauci, Bill Gates and Big Pharma don't want you to read this book. Get PLAGUE OF CORRUPTION now and learn the truth about public health industrial complex's decades of research fraud and vaccine cover-ups."
— Michelle Malkin, New York Times bestselling author and political commentator
PLAGUE OF CORRUPTION is a once-in-a-generation eye-opener that is likely to have a profound impact on how Americans view their country's public health and scientific establishment.
— Preston Flemming, author of Maid of Baikal and Forty Days at Kamas

About the author
When I was fourteen years old I submitted my first story to ANALOG magazine, devoted to short science fiction stories. My story did not get accepted, but I did get a gentle rejection letter which told me to keep writing. In college I wrote my first novel, spent many years writing screenplays, and eventually ran across a story I thought I could turn into a non-fiction story. That was PLAGUE, co-authored with Dr. Judy Mikovits.
In between writing, I worked a summer for a United States Senator, spent two summers chasing bad guys at the United States Attorney's Office, and spent six weeks in a virus lab where I worked with Ebola.
In college I was a double major in English and Political Science, served as Head of our Model United Nations team, and was our school's Rhodes Scholar Candidate. In law school I was a writer and editor for law review, and also won top honors in our Mock Trial class.
I worked as a lawyer with my dad for several years, then found myself drawn to my original love of science and became a science teacher. Now I get to teach science during the day and write about it at night.

We have a very ill population. Autoimmune diseases and cancer, heart disease and diabetes - and everyone pretends not to know what is causing this. And yet, we INTENTIONALLY perturb the immune system of every man, woman, and child in this country from cradle to grave. Over and over again. We inject material that is toxic. Knowingly toxic ingredients. And then when we connect those dots we are met with extreme denial. Denial without any evidence provided. It is hard to believe we have allowed it this long. Sure, we know mercury and aluminum are heavy metals that are not healthy for the body - but our scientists assure us that they are not dangerous. But more important than even the heavy metals are the contaminants that got in there from growing viruses in animals and picking up other things not intended and not purified out. How can you purify something you don't even know is there? This is how we got SV40 - a monkey kidney viruses that causes cancer and went out in the polio vaccine. This is how we got XMRV - a retrovirus implicated in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome that came from passing virus through mouse brains and contaminated cell cultures. What else is hiding in those lab created cell cultures intended for injection into humans?
We are all suffering now from the mistakes made from our "scientists" in the past who rushed into production on pharmaceuticals for public consumption without the proper safety measures. They fail to present us with sufficient evidence that these materials are fully safe and effective. They demonize anyone who inquires about it, and bury the evidence of harm that they do find. This is the definition of corruption.
This book gives you a glimpse into the world of the institutions and characters who have been involved in making public policy. How financial and political interests are more important that the truth about what scientists like Dr Mikovits are finding. I am not as hopeful as Kent & Judy that the "faith in science" can be restored. Because the perpetrators will never come forward and admit what they did. They hold entrenched positions in government agencies and would rather burn the evidence than admit that they poisoned the human population and withheld from us out of hubris, corruption, and greed.
I am so grateful to Robert F Kennedy Jr for taking up the topic, writing the Forward, and not being intimidated by the opposition. And to Kent and Judy for their collaboration that makes this difficult topic so easy to understand. There is a lot of scientific language but the writing makes it very accessible to the reader. Science is just a matter of terms and processes that anyone can learn. Never let someone tell you that the "science" is too complex for the average person. We get it.
This book is very timely! As it is released we are fighting the first "pandemic" of our modern age. And we watch another retrovirus enter the human population to cause who knows what kind of havoc. We are watching how those very same characters and institutions who habitually hide information from us try to come across as believable and trustworthy. We desperately need the knowledge and insight of Dr Judy Mikovits to understand and go forward. I hope she is invited to be part of the Presidents's advisors. I can think of no better person to help us through this confusing and dangerous times. Get the book. Read it. Become part of the red pilled force that is growing every day.
And punch it has. The story this book tells is shocking, infuriating, appalling. As someone who has lost 25 years to the chronic illness ME/CFS, it has been incredibly painful to read about how research that could have put me on the road to recovery a decade ago, that could have given me my life back, was deliberately and ruthlessly suppressed.
This book explains how and why this happened. It details many of the forces and people who implemented this suppression, a massive fraud which has left thousands, if not millions, dead, and ruined the lives of countless more innocent victims. Including me, including several of my friends and loved ones.
When I first got sick, I went to doctor after doctor, was subjected to test after test. I had been a staunch believer in the American medical system. I thought doctors were like gods: you get sick, you go to the doctor, you get well.
They taught me how wrong I was. Those doctors, who I believed in and trusted, put me through hell on earth. Eventually I gave up and turned to alternative medicine, which hasn't cured me but at least slowed the progress of my illness and made life - at times - tolerable. But I never fully understood what had made me ill in the first place.
Now, thanks to Dr. Mikovits and Mr. Heckenlively, do understand. It is clear how and why I got sick. I don't know if I've learned enough to allow me to recover, but I'm going to follow Dr. Mikovits's suggestions to the best of my ability.
And I'm going to hope that I live to see the day that the perpetrators of the crimes of deception, fraud, cover-ups, and character assassination detailed in this book are exposed and brought to justice - and the science that could have helped people like me so many years ago finally is put to use.
Thank you again, Dr. Mikovits and Mr. Lively, for your skill, commitment, and bravery in telling this story. I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life.

Tambien descubre Parte de la corrupcion relacionada con las farmaceuticas y dependencias oficiales
Este libro nos hace concientes del negocio de las vacunas independientemente de las vidas de las personas, que pareciera que no importaran al sistema farmaceutico
Con datos y fechas, Los autores nos confirman las sospechas que existen relacionadas a la falta de etica
I was one of those unfortunates who served in the 1st Gulf War where we were subjected to numerous vaccines (14 different injections in two days) and other components which were supposed to protect soldiers. We were the guinea pigs and the resulting un Remember that the MoD (the government) has never officially recognised the condition. This is so they have avoided litigation claims being made.
Those of you who will be having your Covid-19 vaccination just remember this; the pharmaceutical companies have been provided with indemnity against claims (why if it is safe?) and the government will undoubtedly deny any relationship between any future problems which could manifest in the future. This is not saying that it will impact everyone but there will be those who will have reactions and what this will do to future generations is unknown territory. Read this book to understand what can happen to scientists who have spoken the truth about vaccines.
