I just received the following message from Amazon:
We reviewed a recent decision to remove “THE COURAGE TO FACE COVID-19” and found that it was removed in error. We apologize for the inconvenience this caused.
Who knows what prompted this reversal, but I’d like to thank my valiant co-author, Dr. Peter McCullough, for swinging into action with his usual John Rambo elan and talking to many people who might have helped us.
I’d also like to thank Tony Lyons, President and Publisher of SKYHORSE, who also gallantly manned the phone yesterday talking to free speech advocates on our behalf.
A special thanks to our Substack readers for sharing my posts about this censorship incident far and wide.
We are also extremely grateful to everyone who bought our book from our website in a generous and touching show of support.
Finally, because I have always believed in accepting an olive branch when it is offered, I accept Amazon’s apology for the inconvenience.
Many of us went into overdrive about this. It just needed the "light of day" for Amazon to realize this was an unwise move. It was an error, but not an accidental one, for sure.
Irrespective, it shows that if we all band together and make noise (at whatever level we can) it makes a difference. People should keep that lesson close to heart. Emails/calls/postings on X/whatever -- they all help.
Hooray for the Good Guys (and Gals)
I too send a message that I was closing my Amazon acct and closing the Amazon MasterCard due to their decision to cancel the book, after receiving the benefits of its sales. I was so upset when I read this and now, relieved but still not sure I want to use Amazon now.
