WORLD AROUND US-FIGHT FOR LIFE "Quacks and Quackery"

Because the Department of Health under RFK Jr Won't Tell You...

...here's a brief history about deliberate medical malfeasance, courtesy of Jack (King) Kirby!
This chapter from the never-reprinted Gilberton's World Around Us #36: Fight for Life (1961), illustrated by penciler Jack Kirby and inked by Dick Ayers, was one of the King's few non-Atlas/Marvel Comics gigs from 1960 to 1970, when he left the House of Ideas and signed an exclusive contract with DC for five years!
Jack did freelance work for Gilberton from 1958 to 1961 on both the fact-based World Around Us and fiction-based Classics Illustrated series, mostly doing sections of multi-contributor issues like this one, but also a couple of complete books like a re-do of Last Days of Pompeii!
The writer is unknown.
