in order to pad his pockets.Dr. Yasser Awaad allegedly forced children to endure grueling medical tests — including sleep deprivation — multiple times, though the children never needed them.Mariah Martinez was just nine years old when she said she was referred to Awaad for headaches. At the time, Awaad worked for Oakwood Healthcare, which is now owned by Beaumont Health.Martinez says Awaad wanted her to undergo an electroencephalogram or EEG, and then told her she had epilepsy. Martinez says she was confused because she'd never had a seizure."I didn't know what epilepsy was at that point," she said.Martinez said the diagnosis scared her."Being told you're abnormal, or the tests are abnormal, means I'm not like everyone else, and at that age, you just want to fit in," Martinez said.She said the anti-seizure medication not only made her drowsy – it made her headaches worse."I kind of withdrew into myself, didn't want to be around people," she said.It wasn't until Awaad suddenly left his practice four years later and Martinez saw a new doctor that she found out she never had epilepsy."I lost, I feel like a piece of my childhood. All the time, I could have been learning to do things, playing with the other kids, I could have friends, I could have joined a sport – you never know," Martinez said.Martinez was not alone."I think it's despicable and deplorable that he would do this to any innocent child, let alone several hundred," medical malpractice lawyer Brian McKeen said. McKeen and a team of attorneys are suing Awaad and the hospital."When you look at all the evidence in this case. The conclusion is inescapable. That this was done intentionally," he said.McKeen alleges Awaad ran an EEG mill: the more tests he ran on the kids, the more money he made. At a 2018 deposition, McKeen claimed Awaad made "hundreds of thousands" of dollars for running the tests; money Awaad later said he was "entitled to."McKeen says one of Awaad's pediatric neurology colleagues even blew the whistle on him to Oakwood administrators back in 2003."She told them he's doing unnecessary EEGs, he's diagnosing kids with epilepsy that don't have it, and he's giving kids unnecessary drugs, and they did not do anything about it. They swept it under the rug," McKeen said.McKeen says Awaad also falsely diagnosed Martinez's sister with epilepsy, and in a different family, he's accused of misdiagnosing four out of five siblings.Hundreds of medical licensing records show that since 2010, the state has been accusing Awaad of violating the public health code for wrongly diagnosing kids with epilepsy. The state complaints use words like "negligence" and "incompetence" to describe Awaad, yet he still held on to his medical license.In 2012, he was put on probation and forced to pay a ,000 fine."That wasn't enough. They should suspend his license. He should never be allowed the opportunity to practice medicine and violate the trust of any other patient," McKeen said.In June, a jury awarded Mariah Martinez million for her case against Awaad. The second lawsuit of the 267 pending against Awaad is currently underway in Wayne County Circuit Court."I don't know if I'll ever be 100 percent," Martinez said.Beaumont Health and its lawyers chose not to comment, citing pending litigation and patient privacy laws. A spokesman also said that they have not had a relationship with Awaad since 2017.Beaumont spokesman Mark Geary declined to provide someone to talk on camera, but released the following statement:"The litigation involving Dr. Yasser Awaad and Oakwood Healthcare dates back more than a decade to 2007. We cannot comment about the specifics of this case or others because of pending legal proceedings and patient privacy laws. After his employment with Oakwood Healthcare, Dr. Awaad was briefly employed by Beaumont to provide medical education and clinical curriculum for residents and medical students in pediatric neurology. He completed this work in 2017 and has not had any relationship with Beaumont since that time."Meanwhile, the Michigan Attorney General's Office has filed another administrative complaint against Awaad's license. The hearing was supposed to be held next week, but Awaad's lawyers asked for it to be delayed. It's now scheduled in March.This story was originally published by Heather Catallo on 4344

With over 160 vaccines in development, the race to defeat COVID-19 continues.A California company hopes to deliver its vaccine to your mailbox; one that is pain-free and doesn't require a needle and syringe."One of the things I wanted to do was make vaccines more patient-friendly, so they don't hurt and you're not afraid to take them," said Dr. Dan Henderson, a virologist and the CEO of Verndari, Inc.The biopharmaceutical company is based in Napa, California. Dr. Henderson originally came to the wine country to retire but stepped back into the lab during the Ebola crisis. He says some adults avoid vaccines because of a fear of needles, so Verndari set out to do something different. They created the VaxiPatch, a single-dose vaccination kit that uses a dermal patch with a metal microneedle array to deliver vaccines. Once applied, the person wears the patch like a Band-Aid for five minutes. The vaccine uses the COVID-19 "spike" protein that enables the virus to infect human cells and works to enhance a person's immune person.Unlike traditional vaccines, the patch doesn't need to be refrigerated, which Henderson says would make it easier and cheaper to send to developing countries. The company initially set out to make a flu vaccine but switched gears during the pandemic; they continue to adapt to the world's changing needs. "Now, for the First World, it's a shelter-in-place vaccine," said Henderson.They're working with the FDA to see if it could be mailed to your home. The vaccine would leave a temporary blue mark so the patient could take a photo and send it to their health care provider as proof of vaccination. In collaboration with the UC Davis, they've begun clinical trials in animals. Dr. Henderson says so far the results are promising.Other researchers are also working on getting a patch like this on people's arms.Scientists at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center have created a fingertip-sized skin patch that is also showing promising results in animal testing. Verndari hopes to test its vaccine in humans in the fall, and if all goes well, it could be made available to the public early next year. Dr. Henderson believes they could manufacture about 20 million doses a month. "It would mean a lot because it's important to me to make a contribution and a contribution like that, to me, is priceless." 2408
