This logic is actively dangerous. It takes commitment to make any kind of real change in the world. There are way more lucrative careers for a lawyer than public service.

No, listening to every conspiracy-theorist is actively dangerous. Look where the internet is taking us.
Not to say this bloke isn't right on the money. But one would certainly want to read other, less biased sources to weigh the actual gravity of the problem.

Oh come on. So then listen to none of them? Can you really not tell the difference between real conspiracies and the crap peddled by the alt-right? People really just must like dying.
Plainly described, this is a grave threat to public health being deliberately covered up by people with monetary interests. We've faced literally hundreds of these threats since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. Remember asbestos?
Public awareness is the first major obstacle. Standing in the way of that means more people will die than necessary.
