In a conformist society like Japan, individuals refusing to bow to the crowd stand out. That has certainly been true during the Covid panic.

With the help of independent journalists, dissident doctors in Japan have been waging a battle for sensible medical practices about Covid and alerting the public to dangers.

Their activities are essential in light of Japan’s government-controlled mainstream news media. This long-standing problem resulted from a press-club system, in which government officials feed information to reporters. Their access to those clubs and this information completely depends on pliant cooperation with officials and the narratives that the government wishes to spread.

They have made a special point of protesting the government’s promotion of Covid shots for young children (from 6 months of age, as in the US), as dangerous and unnecessary. On June 24, 2023 they issued a formal protest against the Japan Pediatric Association’s endorsement of the government’s recommendation of Covid injections for small children.
