Sadly, I think it is irreparable. The abandonment of all "norms" in the medical community during covid - particularly the principle of "informed consent" - established the medical community CANNOT BE RELIED ON.

Not because individuals within that group are not working very hard to do the best they can for their patients - personally, I think many such people exist in the medical community and genuinely care for their patients.

But the powers-that-be have shown they can and will hijack those "norms" and toss them out when they prove to be "inconvenient".

And the medical community LET THEM DO THAT.
There went my trust.

That is the crux of it.

The medical community lets those who intentionally kill over 600,000 healthy children every year call themselves doctors. The medical community lets those who sexually mutilate children call themselves doctors. A quarter of a million more are killed via incompetence by doctors, yet the medical community stands silent.
The medical community supports the descent into superstition and quackery that is now the hallmark of their industry.

WELL SAID! I’ve not seen anyone make that point about the entire system so succinctly. They’ve managed to change hospitals back to a 19th century place where people mostly went to die…and I for one would rather die at home than be admitted to one.

When I got COVID in May (after 2 Pfizer vaccine doses and a booster) I had trouble breathing. I told my husband that under no circumstances was he to take me to a hospital because they would put me in the ICU on a respirator and I would die. He had an oxygen generator that he used at might. He insisted that I use it and that made a huge difference in my ability to breathe. I recovered but I was too fatigued to do normal activities for nearly 8 weeks. We have both decided not to take any more COVID vaccines and have convinced our son not to take any more either. He is in the age range for developing heart problems after the jab.

As a scientist, I believe in the science. What we had was not science, but political training and social engineering masquerading as science.

When government approves and promotes a new vaccine that has not yet completed the required human trials, and then compounds that atrocity by approving it for 5 year old children, that is not science.

We were being trained and conditioned for the future, to become robots and serfs who will follow every dictate of government.

And I had my annual physical last week. My doctor told me clearly not to take any more COVID vaccines unless he told me to do so. He is a strong advocate of vaccination - with proven vaccines. I got my flu shot; that is sound science, and it works.

Stand4dFlag • 1 year ago

Flu "vaccines" are not, especially if you go by the original definition of a vaccine. Year over year, the decision of which flu "vaccine" to deploy is little more than a best guess by government cronies, i.e. CDC/NIH. I also believe that the "annual flu shot" was a precursor to the blatant conditioning that we feel today.

thesidelines • 1 year ago

I would agree.

Also, no one working in vaccine development says the quiet part out loud.
Each iteration of a vaccine, whether it had slight "tweaks" or not, is less effective than the previous flu season - even with the exact same virus.

No one knows why.

IMHO...the decline began with obamacare.
That abomination, alone, represents the point of no return in America for the decline of decent health care.
What the D's and the cdc have done is to further put the medical profession firmly in the tank for government and the insurance companies to not only "fool" us, but to bilk us.
Doctor's have now become the tools of the insurance companies, and big business.

But, they made a lot of money! Sorry, but that was the basis for all of this. Nuremberg trial anyone?

With the same verdicts and sentences.

It's not just medical norms it is everything, the world is upside down when we are required to stretch credulity to the breaking point and listen to things like some men can get pregnant and some women possess a complete set of twigs and berries one has to admit normality is out the window! https://media2.giphy.com/me...

The medical community has proven to be just as greedy as any other business. AND yes they are a business. That person looking like a nurse when you check in at a doctors office is just a money collector now. Don't have a card? Bye bye.

curly-cue • 1 year ago

IMHO, the problem is that nearly all physicians and most medical staff are now employed by corporations. The corporate CEO is more concerned about the bottom line. Maximize profits, and if something doesn't contribute to the bottom line, it is ignored or deleted.

thesidelines • 1 year ago

That is probably mostly true. Doesn't excuse the medical professionals from bowing to pressure by the Public Health dept in their State issue threatening letters telling them to not prescribe off-label drugs the doctors knew were very likely to help people sick with covid. (hydrox-----whatever and intermectin as just 2 examples).

The doctors should have posted those threatening letters on social media - on every platform available.
The Public Health officials would have backed off instantly.

Made a lot of mistakes in my life, but avoiding the experimental mRNA treatments since they were apparently politically-driven and not scientifically-drive is not one of them.

anon-7soq • 1 year ago

Right on friend. I knew from the beginning in March 2020 that something wasn't right. when they began silencing the doctors that had excellent results by using other methods other than what the government was saying, that confirmed it for me. It was all a lie to make billions and at the same time, thanks to Bill Gates, kill off billions of people around the world. These people need to be held accountable for mass murder or genocide. How is Bill Gates still alive?? All of the democrats that were part of this mass deception need to be prosecuted and put in prison for 6 life terms each.

The GMO-sapiens never had scientific justification to discriminate and forcefully exclude against pure humans, but they used the fake 'science' overturn the political will of the normal humans.
This established a two-tier society in which the scientifically literate were subservient to the ignorant.

Now, although the non-GMO humans have scientific justification to discriminate against the genetically modified, yet those same people will use the politics to thwart the scientifically correct attempt of pure humans to separate themselves to save humanity.
This establishes an equal society in which the scientifically literate are lowered to ignorants' level.

But pure humans are nice people. They will never demand the rights they are owed; they will always associate with the leprous GMO-sapiens, repaying evil with good.

Alex Jones was just fined almost a billion dollars for his opinions about a school shooting. How much more should the punishment be for those who pushed these vaccine falsehoods and who shut down early treatment of covid with HCQ and Ivermectin?

These people won't be fined. They have the "correct" political philosophy.

Are you trying to say TownHall should be fined a billion dollars for daring to take a non-authorized position?

Since they lied about this "vaccine" I have to wonder how many other vaccine claims they have lied about. Perhaps childhood vaccines really do cause autism.

"John Hopkins University Dr. Marty Makary posted on Twitter."

And was promptly suspended or deleted by Twitter for "disinformation". Never mind he's a medical authority who knows of whence he speaks. He's disagrees with the "woke crowd", so we must crush him.

Only the misinformed use the phony “disinformation” claim. And we have a lot of those in libturd la la land.

CatsAliveInHim • 1 year ago

With the news that 'wokeness' has now invaded the medical schools, there really is no reason to trust the medical establishment at all, now.

Over the years I've seen medicine devolve from caring doctors trying to make life easier for those with severe injuries or other physical limitations/chronic conditions into the docs now being shills for the pharmaceutical companies.

No symptom is too small to 'treat', and boy have they come up with all sorts of 'disorders' to justify all the tests and the expensive drugs with the more, the better; we apparently have the 'right' not to suffer the least physical discomfort or inconvenience.

And mental health? Don't make me laugh. They essentially put young boys on speed then lamented the rise in violence and 'mass shootings'. Nobody speaks out against marijuana's bad effects on those with mental illness because tobacco is somehow worse. Now they're cutting up young girls and boys, rendering them infertile because feelings and hey, it's cool to be 'trans'. But will those same 'doctors' be held to any account for the sure-to-come suicides of young adults once those youngsters realize what they allowed and what will have resulted from their following what is a devious, evil and deliberately promoted fad in order for those 'gender-identity care' butchers to profit handsomely off their natural insecurities?

My husband and I are blessed with very good health in our 60's; we just pray when the Lord calls us home it won't have to involve being at the mercy of 'woke' doctors who have less respect for their calling than they do for the $$$ it brings.

My son is helping his friend pack his house to exit the USAF because of these assmaster bureaucrats and that moron who lives at the White House forced members to take these vaccines or leave the military. This guy is a good troop. I hope the next Republican President fixes this by letting everyone who refused the vaccine back into the military with back pay. This was atrocious. It's sickening what these folks did to countless doctors, nurses, first responders, and laboratory personnel who refused the jab because of the lack of testing data.

CatsAliveInHim • 1 year ago

The more so because in 2020 those first responders and health workers couldn't be lauded enough for their heroism.

What a stab in the back they-and America-got with this assclown in the White House.
