You're conflating 2 different issues

Covid has caused inflation and a supply chain catastrophe.
Do you know which billionaires got the most benefit out of this? price gougers, tech, and people who has a stranglehold on the supply chain Steve Bezos.
Yes. there are absolutely people taking advantage of a bad situation. Even now, the global inflation has made some people gouge up their prices more than necessary. But this is not a case of big bad pharma exploiting people. Covid vaccination is free (almost) globally. It's not insulin

I agree with the consensus of the medical community.
You claim this is corporate rhetoric.
I say the political climate has made anti-intellectualism come back

I have seen enough people dying from taking a contrarian stance.
I have seen the toll on the healthcare workers.
Our hospitals are full. There's not enough healthcare workers.
The virus is still out there and mutating
Monkeypox is around the corner
Polio might just come back

But yeah, go on and frame the medical community the enemy
Go on and promote "wellness" as the solution to a global problem
Keep telling people there's a miracle low cost drug that's been kept from the public
What's next? just eat bananas for your hypertension?

people like Kim Iverson have blood on their hands
I will never forgive people like her and their supporters

PS: and when I say medical community I don't mean people with vested interest like Robert Malone
