Seriously some MDs have managed to make it so that my entire position on the profession has gone completely in reverse.

I use to see doctors as ethical, humanist, and rational until proven otherwise. Now?

I miss the days when medical advice (even underhandedly) given on social media to strangers was considered - to put it mildly - uncouth.

I think it began with diagnosing politicians and people for political gain. Oh right. That’s how it always began.

It’s rather insane that polemics has replaced principle in the professions which without it lead to the most horrific results.

Medical lysenkoism is patient zero for mass formation and democide. We need a new word for it - covidiology perhaps.
