429. No More Tears: The dark secrets of Johnson & Johnson exposed, with award-winning journalist, Gardiner Harris

Over the past 2 decades, Gardiner Harris has been covering and collecting data on Johnson&Johnson. Now, as an independent and award-winning investigative journalist, he releases the fruits of 2 decades of research, interviews, analysis and findings in No More Tears: The dark secrets of Johnson & Johnson exposed. 

In this show we explore: 

• The collapse of a strong public health framework
• The infiltration of industry into public service
• The specific ways in which Johnson&Johnson has caused millions harm over decades across a number of their products. 
• The opioid crisis, hip replacements, vaginal mesh, anemia drug EPO in cancer patients and antipsycholotics in aged care and more… 
• The way J&J can stay afloat despite all of the damages and legal fees
• What hope we have of restoring faith in health care? 
• What you and I can do to ensure at the grass roots we are building a better system.

It’s a doozy, I’m not going to lie, but it’s important work and Gardiner has done some extraordinary work to bring this story to light.
