As of 2017, Dr. Joseph Mercola had made more than $100M as an anti-vaxxer pushing supplements.
The Covid pandemic must have been a dream come true.

This article was from 2019, when his biggest target was the measles vaccine -- but he's found a new favorite target.
The Northern Virginia-based National Vaccine Information Center lists Mercola.com as a partner on its homepage and links to the website, where readers can learn about and purchase Mercola’s merchandise.
Last month, Mercola wrote on his website that measles “continues to be a Trojan Horse for increasing vaccine mandates.” A page that was recently removed said that “vitamin C supplementation is a viable option for measles prevention.” Elsewhere on the site, a page about vitamin D includes the headline, “Avoid Flu Shots With the One Vitamin that Will Stop Flu in Its Tracks.”
Mercola, whose claims about other products have drawn warnings from regulators, has also given at least $4 million to several groups that echo the anti-vaccine message. His net worth, derived largely from his network of private companies, has grown to “in excess of $100 million,” he said in a 2017 affidavit.

This is from March:
Among a flurry of recent FDA warning letters was one sent to Joseph Mercola, DO, a controversial alternative medicine physician, for improperly marketing COVID-19 treatments.
The agency told Mercola that three products he markets with COVID-19 claims -- "Liposomal Vitamin C, Liposomal Vitamin D3, and Quercetin and Pterostilbene Advanced" -- are "unapproved new drugs" and "misbranded drugs" being sold in violation of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
