<[link removed]>Sayer Ji – MAHA’s Secret Weapon

By Emilie Hagen, Contributing Writer, The MAHA Report <[link removed]>

It was the late ’70s in Dortmund, Germany. A young American boy lay in a European hospital bed while a nurse injected a butterfly shot into his wrist. He walked to a room lined with gurneys and hears children screaming out, “POLIZEI! POLIZEI!”





<[link removed]>Sayer Ji — then Douglas, a kindergartner at the time, living abroad with his family while his father worked as a professor at the Max Planck institute — doesn’t need to speak the language to understand what those cries mean. The hospital waiting room feels less like care than an edifice of menace. 

“It was horrific,” he tells me over the phone, now 52-years-old, even describing the waiting room, where his mother remembers seeing pictures of resident doctors in their previous Nazi uniform attire.

He stops mid-sentence to answer a domestic ping — a WhatsApp about a piece of furniture arriving at his house — a small, modern interruption that lands softly beside the larger claims he’s about to make. It’s a reminder that the life Ji describes is split between the ordinary and the extreme: furniture delivery on one side; origin myths on the other. “I think fascistic medicine actually is very much part of what we saw deployed…. Project Paperclip <[link removed]>,” he says, and the line between past and present tightens.

If you trace Ji’s career from that sterile corridor in Germany, the rest looks almost inevitable. Ji was born a sick infant and spent his youth suffering from a variety of illnesses, undergoing surgeries he experienced as mishandled and dealing with the aftermath of medications he was prescribed that led to more problems. At age 17, he gave up cow’s milk and his inhaler — swearing that by eliminating certain dairy products from his diet he no longer needed albuterol to treat his life-long asthma.
