The New York Times reports that leading adolescent gender physician Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy is refusing to publish a nearly 10-year, $10 million taxpayer-funded study on the effectiveness of puberty-blocking drugs in children with gender dysphoria – because she doesn’t like the results. The researcher admits the study shows that “Puberty blockers did not lead to mental health improvements” but she has chosen not to publish the report because it might fuel “political attacks.” Other studies around the world have received similar treatment: according to the NYT, “British researchers reported that puberty blockers had not changed volunteers’ well-being, including rates of self-harm,” but the “results were not made public until 2020, years after puberty blockers had become the standard treatment for children with gender dysphoria in England.” Sharyl Attkisson is a five-time Emmy Award-winning investigative journalist and host of “Full Measure,” reaching 43+ million households weekly.
