I want to speak of the "Silence That Kills"

Spread the Information

Like in most countries, Italian television provides what the audience wants: tantalizing near-nudity, sex, violence, and dreamy wealth. And, like in most countries, this results in vapid programming containing little or no value, educational or otherwise. Is this what our audiences really need?

To put this into perspective: a mere forty years ago, audiences enjoyed themselves when everyone on the screen threw pies at each other. Television has not shown much progress since then.

Television is the capstone of the entertainment business, but it is also, arguably, the single most important medium today. Television should continue to entertain, but should also be used to spread important information. It is safe to say that medical news and information should be included and given the top priority.

Audiences must be informed of the progress of medicine and the latest cures and treatments of deadly diseases such as cancer. Many of us, myself included, have lost family members and friends to these diseases. And most of us are still unaware that cures exist.

With all this in mind, I decided to take the first step. I researched these types of pathologies and discovered that cures exist for many of them. I also discovered that large medical companies would prefer these cures be kept quiet, for fear that they would become unable to sell their own, ineffectual treatments.

In order to share this new awareness with the general public, I created and directed this film. Aptly entitled "Silence That Kills," it proves that genetic and medical researches are only too willing to share information on these subjects. Michela Diamanti, who plays the protagonist, interviewed leading researchers, and discovered that the only reason they were silent was because of a marked lack of interest in their findings.
This situation must change, and we need the help of everyone to cause this shift. People need to know about these things, and we, through this website, intend to bring them to light.

Cari amici, sono disgustato dall'indifferenza che circonda l'argomento della genetica terapeutica. Poca l'informazione, pochi i seminari di formazione medico-professionale! Ma cosa gravissima, poca è l'informazione su di un miriade di ricercatori che hanno certamente cure e soluzioni terapeutiche, testate e funzionati, che però non vengono portati a conoscenza delle masse. Si perchè per chi si sente collocato un po' più in alto di una persona normale, noi siamo la massa e lui, casomai il giornalista o il luminare, nell'espletamento della sua attività professionale, si pavoneggia o decide quello che dobbiamo o non dobbiamo sapere.

Ridicolo è poi chi si trincera dietro a  terminologie mediche , che risultano per i più, incomprensibili.

In fatto di medicina e salute si può spiegare tutto in termini estremamente comprensibili a tutti ... ma questo forse toglie potere ed allora non si applica. In questi giorni sto assiduamente conversando con il Prof. Giordano con cui credo, si possano porre in esssere iniziative atte ad informare, o forse molto di più. Vi terrò informati.
