About Archie Kalokerinos
Archivides "Archie" Kalokerinos was an Australian physician and anti-vaccination advocate. He advocated alternative medicine, including orthomolecular medicine and a form of megavitamin therapy in which high doses of vitamin C are used. He became notable for treating indigenous Australians with a ”counter intuitive” therapy: high intravenous doses of vitamin C, a treatment generally used for patients with severe or subclinical scurvy, but criticized for not being supported by evidence-based medicine, although it brought the infant mortality rate there down to zero.
