Whistleblower Revelation
An anonymous whistleblower revealed that Texas Children's Hospital, the largest children's hospital globally, was misleading the public about its transgender program. This revelation indicated that despite claims of shutting down the program, the hospital continued to administer puberty blockers to children as young as 11 years old. These interventions are potentially harmful, likened to undergoing numerous microsurgeries that can fundamentally alter a child's body. The whistleblower, Dr. Eitan Haim, felt morally compelled to expose this deception due to the severe implications for children's health and well-being.
