"I love a book that insists upon itself," says CNN's Jarrett Bellini. "Each one is treated with, though your voice comes through and you have plenty of sides" The humanity of each of these people has held sacred throughout, he adds. 'They're fighting the only fight that anyone would fight if they had these two things'
At the peak of COVID-19, Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling set out to write a book about the widespread pushback against masks and vaccines as away to discuss the rise of the medical freedom movement in America. But after meeting a series of people within that movement his efforts took a sharp turn into the motivations, tribulations, and personal lives of the people who sell miracle cures and dietary supplements, skirting the law when they can, and heading to jail when they can't. The book is titled, If it Sounds Like a Quack, and it is a deep dive into the marketplace of snake oils and magical procedures sold by people who each claim to have found the one true cure for any and everything that could ever ail you.
