Quote:In fact a few of them are acknowledged by the medical profession as quacks; see my little list:
The real quacks are in the medical profession you're referring to:
"The medical profession is being bought by the pharmaceutical industry, not only in terms of the practice of medicine, but also in terms of teaching and research. The academic institutions of this country are allowing themselves to be the paid agents of the pharmaceutical industry. I think it’s disgraceful."
- - Arnold S. Relman, former editor, New England Journal of Medicine

I've misrepresented nothing. That's what he said.
And:
The Bill Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) has funded two organizations that over the past five years have played a significant role in (India)’s immunization programme and are both under fire for
conflict of interest. The organizations are GAVI (earlier known as Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization), a global aid organization that specializes in vaccination, and Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI), a public-private partnership society that BMGF co-founded with the UPA government in 2006.
Activists allege that these two institutions have a working relationship with pharma companies. The main charge against GAVI is that it has representatives from pharmaceutical companies on its board while the PHFI accepts grants from pharma companies. “BMGF and GAVI are pushing the [vaccine] agenda with governments around the world, including India,” says Ritu Priya Mehrotra, professor of Social Medicine and Community Health and School of Social Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi. The community health activist says the biotechnology industry was pushing more and more vaccines into India and that the health ministry was not ensuring that adequate testing was done before recommending their use in government programmes...
The GAVI board comprises of a representative each of the pharma industry from the industrialized and developing countries, a sore point with some experts from the aid world. In an article in the The Guardian three years ago, leaders of international aid agencies such as Oxfam and MSF said the representatives of companies needed to step down from the GAVI board. “Pharmaceutical companies’ representation on GAVI’s board creates a
conflict of interest. The current structure is far too cosy,” said the article quoting Mohga Kamal-Yanni, a senior policy adviser with Oxfam...
Similar controversies on proximity with pharma companies and
conflict of interest have been raised about PHFI. While PHFI is engaged in public health and is also partnering the government in UIP, it has accepted grants from a number of pharma companies, including vaccine manufacturers...
Public health activist and pediatrician Dr Arun Gupta says PHFI’s links with pharma companies and McKinsey are unacceptable. “It is a clear
conflict of interest. Neither the government nor PHFI has come out clearly and spoken of their relationship with each other... it seems to be a private club that helps pharma companies make inroads into public policy.”
https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/healthcare/biotech/healthcare/cont...Several such details of BMGF’s investments in vaccine manufacturing companies and other corporations are revealed in a study by David Stuckler of Harvard University in the US. The study titled ‘Global Health Philanthropy and Institutional Relationships: How should conflicts of Interest be addressed’ was published in ‘Public Library of Sciences’ in April. It is a clear case of
conflict of interest because
Gates is promoting vaccines manufactured by pharmaceutical companies in which he (has) shares
, Stuckler says.
