Egyptian Medical Syndicate Statement on the KoftaGate Fake Military-announced HIV AIDS Device Perpetrators


1 Feb 2015

Egyptian Medical Syndicate Statement on the #KoftaGate Fake HIV AIDS CCD C-Fast Device Cure
The Egyptian Medical Syndicate demands whoever has been involved in the campaigning or promotion attempts for the device that has been alleged of being capable of curing Hepatitis C Virus (HCV); to announce a clear apology to the Egyptian people.

The scientific hypothesis of how this device works has never been through the required steps obligatory to any scientific research, which start with lab experiments, experiments on animals, and, if succeeded, go for clinical trials on volunteer patients; before the announcement of any results in conferences to discuss effectiveness versus risks; and finally, when effectiveness is irrefutable, announcement of the new cure takes place through media, to the public and patients.

Sadly, the announcement launched for the device as a new way of treatment, without any enforcement of the mandatory scientific research steps and ethics; some of the members of the Egyptian Armed Forces Engineering Department, numerous media figures, and some physicians have been involved in its promotion. That resulted in numerous patients of Hepatitis C Virus abandoning treatment with interferon - known of extreme fatigue effect on patients - thus suffered a relapse in their overall health status; as they have been deceived to believe in a new, fast, magical and non-fatigue-causing treatment.

Hence, The Egyptian Medical Syndicate demands all entities who have been involved in the campaigning and promotion for this device, that has never been through the mandatory steps of scientific research; to announce apology to the Egyptian people.

The Egyptian Medical Syndicate declares that it has already started the procedures of disciplinary interrogation of the physicians involved in this crime, and is looking into the needed procedures of the legal prosecution of everyone took part in the crime of misleading the Egyptian People.

نقابة الأطباء تطالب بالإعتذار للشعب المصرى
البيان الرسمي لنقابة أطباء مصر حول المتورطين في جريمة جهاز الكفتة

2015-02-01 00:00:00

تطالب نقابة أطباء مصر ، كل من قام بمحاولات دعاية أو الترويج للجهاز الذى تم الادعاء أنه جهاز قادر على علاج فيروس ( C ) بتقديم اعتذار واضح للشعب المصرى .

ذلك أن الافتراضات العلمية لكيفية عمل هذا الجهاز ، لم تمر بالمراحل الضرورية التى يستلزمها أى بحث علمى ، والتى تبدأ بالتجارب المعملية ، ثم التجارب على الحيوانات ، وفى حالة النجاح تنتقل للتجارب على متطوعين من المرضى ، قبل أن يتم الإعلان عن أى نتائج فى مؤتمرات لمناقشة الفاعلية فى مقابل المخاطر وأخيراً وفى حالة ثبوت الفاعلية ، يتم الإعلان عن أسلوب العلاج الجديد فى وسائل الإعلام ، للجمهور والمرضى .

لكن للأسف ، تم الإعلان عن الجهاز كأسلوب علاج جديد دون أن يكون هناك أى إلتزام بخطوات وأخلاقيات البحث العلمى الضرورية ، وقام بالترويج له بعض المنتمين للهيئة الهندسية بالقوات المسلحة والعديد من الإعلاميين وبعض الأطباء ، مما أدى لترك العديد من مرضى الإلتهاب الكبدى الفيروسى لعلاجهم بعقار الانترفيرون المعروف بإجهاده الشديد للمرضى ، وانتكاس حالتهم الصحية ، حيث ضللوا بالاعتقاد فى علاج جديد سريع وساحر وغير مجهد .

لذلك فنقابة الأطباء تطالب كل الجهات التى قامت بالدعاية والترويج لهذا الجهاز الذى لم يمر بخطوات البحث العلمى الضرورية بتقديم الاعتذار للشعب المصرى .

وتوضح نقابة الأطباء أنها بدأت بالفعل إجراءات المسائلة التأديبية للأطباء المشاركين فى هذه الجريمة ، وأنها تبحث الإجراءات اللازمة للمحاسبة القانونية لكل من شارك فى جريمة تضليل الشعب المصرى

Egypt Forensic Authority Fired for Expressing Medical Opinion on a TV Show!


From New York Times:
 
Egypt’s Medical Forensics Authority on Tuesday  dismissed its spokesman after he said last week that a poet and activist killed by police birdshot had died from her wounds only because she was too thin. State news media reported Tuesday that the Justice Ministry was opening an investigation to determine whether or not it was true that more body fat might have obstructed the pellets that pierced her heart and lungs, the injuries that coroners said had caused her death. The poet and activist, Shaimaa el-Sabbagh, 31, was taking part in a march to lay flowers in Tahrir Square on Jan. 24 when the police fired birdshot and tear gas from a few yards away. Prosecutors charged a police officer with a form of manslaughter in the shooting but have not named the officer. The spokesman for the medical examiner, Hisham Abdel Hamid, said in a television interview on Saturday that other marchers that day survived similar blasts of birdshot but that Ms. Sabbagh died because she was “too skinny.”
