Big Pharma is far too cosy with medical schools, researchers, professors – Dr EV Rapiti

Loading player...
While Dr EV Rapiti is largely known as a family physician, over four decades of frontline healthcare experience and his insatiable drive to keep up to date with medical advancements have made him a uniquely qualified medical generalist.

He ate, slept and breathed Covid-19 while mainstream media engulfed the world with - in Rapiti’s view - incorrect information intended to scare. In an interview with BizNews, he said with conviction that “nobody should have died of Covid” as proper, early management of the virus could, and should, have been implemented to treat patients with Covid-19. He also takes an unsparing swipe at Professor Salim Karim and the official narrative which, on principle, Rapiti refused to follow, instead opting to do whatever was necessary to save his patients.
