Topic: Webex

German Air Force generals were recorded on an unencrypted Webex call discussing the potential bombing of the Crimean bridge using Taurus cruise missiles. Chancellor Olaf Scholz promised a swift investigation into the security breach, which the German government attributes to Russian wiretapping. The conversation revealed internal debates about supplying long-range weapons to Ukraine and the presence of British and American personnel on the ground.

The discussion shifts to the permanence of remote work and the success of platforms like Slack and Zoom. One host mentions a contact who is participating in a confidential governor-led panel focused on developing social distancing tracking technology, currently in the "ideation stage."

The Carlat Psychiatry Blog exposed how Schering-Plough recruits doctors for "Speaker Bureaus" to promote drugs like Saphris. Physicians are offered $3,000 for training and up to $1,600 per 45-minute presentation, with annual earnings capped at $170,000. The hosts argue this system incentivizes doctors to over-prescribe medications to children for financial gain.
