What Healthcare Professionals Learned from the Pandemic ...
... and what we should learn from that
I came across a short piece in Medpage Today last night, titled “Health Professionals React to the End of the COVID Public Health Emergency”.
The article quotes five health professionals, asking them what they learned from the Covid period and how they expect their practices will change. For three out of five, the key thing is masks. For one of them, the most important thing is telehealth; not having to see his patients. We might say this is taking it a step further than masks. One of them, a nurse, seems to have had a burnout, and trying to recover from it.
It is interesting to consider those answers in light of the robust evidence that masks actually do not prevent the transmission of a respiratory virus. Every attempt at proving it has failed and the conclusion of the famous Cochrane review early this year was that there is no high quality evidence showing masking has any benefit in this regard.
Four of those people are MDs, one is a registered nurse. All should have the training and the intelligence to distinguish between medical interventions that work and those that don’t work. All should be able to read, understand and draw logical conclusions from scientific research.
Yet, for most of them, the most important change is that now they wear masks to prevent themselves and others from respiratory infections, even if the evidence shows they don’t work.
What can we learn from what they “learned”? This is obvious: We must stop trusting those people with our health.
"The article quotes five MDs, asking them what they learned from the Covid period and how they expect their practices will change."
The question should be what did the public learn about medical professionals during the COVID scamdemic.
If asked most would say they learned that healthcare institutions are run by mediocre individuals who are captured by the pharmaceutical industry and most physicians are spineless and ignorant meekly doing what they're told by corrupted apparatchiks who intimidate them with fear of retribution. And they also learned that in the end, nobody really gives a f--k about the patient, hence medical providers willingly practice inane protocols even if it irreparably damages the young and healthy.
I’ll never trust a medical professional, scientist again, that’s for sure. Politicians are even worse though, endemically corrupted.
