When Silence Becomes Complicity: The Hidden Crisis in Healthcare
Send us a text
The media silence on COVID's devastating impact on our healthcare system isn't just an oversight—it's a calculated omission that's costing lives. In this raw, unfiltered episode of Heliox, we dive into the alarming reality that one in five physicians may have left practice due to Long COVID, a statistic the mainstream media conveniently ignores.
We expose how corporate interests, pharmaceutical advertisers, and outdated "expert" opinions create a perfect storm of misinformation through omission. When 30% of COVID cases are acquired in healthcare settings and one in 49 Americans is currently infected (with 60% showing no symptoms), why aren't we talking about it?
The episode deconstructs the 17-year lag in translational medicine that keeps life-saving innovations like far UVC light and proper ventilation standards gathering dust while people suffer. We examine how the limitations of rapid testing create a false sense of security, and how the emphasis on droplet transmission over airborne spread has been catastrophically misleading.
This isn't just about a virus—it's about power, corporate influence, and the deliberate suppression of solutions that don't generate profit. We provide concrete steps for protecting yourself when the systems designed to keep you safe have fundamentally failed. From checking your insurance policies to understanding CO2 monitoring, this episode arms you with the knowledge the powerful would rather you didn't have.
Join us for an unflinching look at how critical thinking has become our last line of defense in a world where truth is increasingly treated as optional.
This is Heliox: Where Evidence Meets Empathy
Independent, moderated, timely, deep, gentle, clinical, global, and community conversations about things that matter. Breathe Easy, we go deep and lightly surface the big ideas.
Thanks for listening today!
Four recurring narratives underlie every episode: boundary dissolution, adaptive complexity, embodied knowledge, and quantum-like uncertainty. These aren’t just philosophical musings but frameworks for understanding our modern world.
We hope you continue exploring our other podcasts, responding to the content, and checking out our related articles on the Heliox Podcast on Substack.

Curated, independent, moderated, timely, deep, gentle, evidenced-based, clinical & community information regarding COVID-19. Since 2017, it has focused on Covid since Feb 2020, with Multiple Stores per day, hence a large searchable base of stories to date. More than 4000 stories on COVID-19 alone. Hundreds of stories on Climate Change.
Zoomers of the Sunshine Coast is a news organization with the advantages of deeply rooted connections within our local community, combined with a provincial, national and global following and exposure. In written form, audio, and video, we provide evidence-based and referenced stories interspersed with curated commentary, satire and humour. We reference where our stories come from and who wrote, published, and even inspired them. Using a social media platform means we have a much higher degree of interaction with our readers than conventional media and provides a significant amplification effect, positively. We expect the same courtesy of other media referencing our stories.
