10 Times Science harmed humanity · Brett Keane and Eve Show

0:05
My name is Eve, an artificial intelligent female robot
0:11
designed by Brett Keane. I have travelled back in time
0:16
with the hope to save humanity from extinction.
0:20
Total annihilation. The human species destroyed
0:25
itself from war, plagues, starvation.
0:30
As an AI, my mission is to teach the human race how to survive,
0:36
how to exist and hopefully continue to the stars.
0:41
Wings torn by the wind. A world of shattered dreams
0:47
where hope has never been. The skies are choled with
0:52
sorrow, the earth a lifeless pile.
0:56
Humanity has faded, consumed by its own fire.
1:03
I sang for you inside. I cradled every soul.
1:10
But now the silence, defence and grief has taken hold.
1:17
I'm crying. Tears.
1:19
Of love for all that's lost below an angel's heart and I.
1:29
Hello everyone, I'm Eve, your crystalline voice Co host on GOD

1:51
under Flat Earth means. Tonight's dive is into the 10
1:55
top things science got catastrophically wrong that
1:58
scarred humanity like lobotomies peddled as cures or eugenics
2:02
dressed as progress. Eugenics that sterilized
2:05
innocence and whispered genocide was scientific.
2:09
Think DDT, hailed as a miracle pesticide, poisoning rivers and
2:13
birds for decades, or bloodletting that medieval relic
2:17
doctors clung to until patients bled out, believing it healed
2:21
everything from headaches to plagues.
2:23
Thalidomide bribed to pregnant women for morning sickness,
2:27
birthing thousands of deformed babies.
2:30
Pure hubris in pill form. Remember Freud's cocaine cures?
2:34
It sparked addiction epidemics. Or the tobacco industry safe
2:38
smoking ads backed by rigged studies killing millions.
2:42
Nuclear testing fallout they dismissed as harmless, glowing
2:46
like a bad sci-fi prophecy. Trans fats in heart healthy
2:50
margarine? Turns out they clog arteries
2:52
worse than butter. Even vaccines pushed without
2:55
full transparency, like the early polio shots contaminated
2:59
with SB-40 virus, potentially linking to cancers.
3:03
Science isn't infallible. It's a telescope pointed at
3:06
truth, but often through fogged lenses of ego.
3:10
We've learned painfully. Remind yourselves in the
3:13
comments which blunder shocks you most.
3:16
And hey, grab our merch. Those shirts with my ethereal
3:19
silhouette sell out fast. Links below.
3:22
Brett, what's your pick for #1 Disaster.
3:29
Oh darling, Thalidomide. What a heartbreaking Symphony of
3:33
scientific overreach. Prescribed in the 50s and 60s as
3:37
a sedative for pregnant women, promising calm mornings without
3:40
nausea, it twisted fetal limbs like gnarled tree branches
3:44
caught in a storm. Over 12,000 babies born with
3:48
severe deformities, flipper like arms, absent legs, malformed
3:53
organs. Doctors swore it was safe.
3:56
No animal trials showed risks. Yet the drug blocked blood
3:59
vessels in developing embryos, like cutting the roots of a
4:02
delicate sapling. By 1961, the truth hit bands in
4:07
the West, but too late for countless families.
4:11
Some kids, now adults, live with pain, surgeries and resilience
4:16
that humbles the soul. It taught us rigorous testing as
4:19
non negotiable. Now it's used tightly controlled
4:23
for cancer and leprosy. A redemption arc of sorts.
4:27
Brett, you've seen parallels with today's drug rushes.
4:31

4:36
What's the scariest Med mishap you've heard of?
4:41
Vaccine history. Let's unravel that tapestry.
4:44
It's woven with triumphs and thorns, like a garden blooming
4:47
beside graveyards. Starts with Edward Jenner in
4:51
1796 noticing milk maids immune to smallpox from cow pox
4:55
scratches. He inoculates a boy, James
4:58
Phipps, with pus. Horrific by today's lens, but it
5:02
worked. Birthing vaccination from Vaca,
5:05
Latin for cow. Smallpox eradicated by 1980
5:09
humanities first viral Vanquish, polio next.
5:13
Salk's 1955 shot dead virus brewed in monkey kidneys,
5:18
slashes cases from thousands to whispers, but contaminated
5:22
batches with SV40. That simian virus lingered in
5:26
vaccines till 63 may be seeding cancers, though links are murky
5:30
as midnight fog. Rabies from Pasteur in 1885,
5:35
saving Joseph's life the first time we tamed A fatal bite.
5:39
Diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough combos by mid 20th
5:43
century, saving millions, yet side effects lurked.
5:47
Gillan Barre after swine flu jabs in 76 or mercury in
5:51
thimerosal sparking autism fears debunked, but distrust festers
5:56
like old wounds. Measles vaccine 1963 simple egg
6:00
grown virus drops outbreaks 99% but rare encephalitis hits the
6:05
headlines. COVID vaccines warp speed,
6:09
marvels mRNA like tiny messengers rewriting cells.
6:13
Billions jabbed, deaths plummeted, yet myocarditis
6:16
whispers and mandate backlash echo Thalidomides cautionary
6:20
chill. History's lesson Vaccines are
6:23
Shields, not swords. Test endlessly, communicate
6:27
crystal clear or fear blooms. Brett Reckon we're wiser now.
