| Plague of Corruption is currently a top-tier non-fiction title on Amazon Charts, New York Times Bestseller (debuting at #12 on its hardcover non-fiction list) <ref name = "NYT">'''New York Times'''. . '']''. 23 May 2020. Retrieved 20 May 2020.</ref> and USA Today Bestseller lists, with over 100,000 copies already in print. With brilliant insight, based upon decades of medical research and a doctorate in molecular biology, Dr. Mikovits questions the dominant narrative of modern allopathic medicine, delivering scathing critiques on matters ranging from the use of animal tissue in medical research unleashing devastating plagues of chronic diseases, to the escalating epidemics of autism and chronic fatigue syndrome; she and her co-author describe and detail the ubiquitous corruption currently plaguing medical research and treatment. | |||
| Mikovits also has been featured in a recent, spring of 2020, documentary, '''Plandemic''', that has been banned from several social media and video platforms, while her publications and professional bona fides are concurrently being slammed with often abusive, pejorative laced, character assassination 'hit pieces' across the spectrum of orthodox mainstream media. | |||
| ==Reviews== | |||
| "One of the main problems of our time is the public loss of confidence in the scientific community because of a too often corrupt coalition of governmental and corporate entities. Judy Mikovits's and Kent Heckenlively's book delves into the midst of this rampant corruption, which hides from the public scientific truths which might go against these corporate economic interests." | |||

| “Kent Heckenlively and Judy Mikovits are the new dynamic duo fighting corruption in science.” | |||

| “What this book teaches you more than anything else is that science is a dangerous game. The notion that science is precise and unambiguous is wrong. When there is doubt, there is the potential for powerful interested parties to make life miserable for a scientist with integrity. Throughout the book, intrigue is seamlessly intertwined with fascinating revelations about the still poorly understood science behind the potential role of retroviruses in mysterious debilitating diseases like chronic fatigue syndrome and autism.” | |||

| “The breathtaking story of an extraordinary scientist who discovered the most likely cause of chronic fatigue syndrome, only to witness a cover-up and character assassination emanating from the highest levels of the scientific community. An incisive critique of what's wrong with science today, and yet a hopeful portrait of how science still has the means to find the truth. It leaves you overwhelmed by the insidious methods and players corrupting science, but hopeful for truth-seekers in the scientific community like Dr. Mikovits who are persevering against all odds.” | |||
