Scottish Doctor and PhD Nutritionist Win Libel Case Against British Media for Being Labeled as “Murderers” by Exposing Dangerous Cholesterol-Lowering Drugs

In 2019, Health Impact News covered a story out of the UK where the British media launched an attack campaign against medical doctors and nutritionists who exposed the cholesterol myth, and the very profitable, and very dangerous, statin drugs that were being prescribed to artificially lower people's cholesterol. They were gaining so much popularity in the Alternative Media, including Health Impact News, that drug sales for statins were apparently declining. So they brought out the attack dogs in the corporate media to smear them, calling them "statin deniers" who they said were responsible for murdering people because patients were not taking their statin drugs, that they claim prevent heart attacks. These doctors and nutritionists were being compared to "vaccine deniers", such as Andrew Wakefield, to vilify their reputations. Because now, some 5 years later, Dr. Malcolm Kendrick has reported that he and Zoë Harcombe have won a libel suit against the The Mail. "Finally, the dust settles. Zoë and I won our case against the Mail on Sunday. The judgement came out a few weeks ago, but the legal wrangling continued – and still continues. The Mail on Sunday did print an apology. There is still a statement in open court to come (SIOC). The SIOC has to be agreed by the judge, and this has not yet happened. But some names are going to be named. We know who you are. The behind the scenes activity was quite outrageous. Eventually, all will be revealed. Because none of this is confidential anymore. The rock was lifted to see the creatures squirming in unaccustomed sunlight."
