From my personal experience just as a patient, I can’t help but agree with this. 9 times out of 10, when I see medical professionals they don’t want context, medical history, etc. They just prescribe me a drug within the first couple minutes of seeing me and then tell me that if it doesn’t work then they’ll prescribe me something else. Rather than assess, diagnose and then treat.

Fun fact: The rails for the corporate take over of medicine were put in place in 1910 via the Flexner report (Abraham Flexner) which was largely funded by John D Rockefeller and the Carnegie Foundation. Although there were undoubtedly positive effects on medicine (esp in the early 20th century) the path for “evidence based science/medicine” (the preferred term of the “pompous experts” for the medical/scientific dogma of corporate stakeholders…IMHO) and the corruption of the practice of medicine at the expense of patients and taxpayers. All liscenced physicians take the Oath of Hippocrates which in part states “refrain from doing harm”. IMO (and I think most patients and taxpayers would agree) the most egregious harm is physically harming someone or their long term health… although the next most grievous offense in the eyes of many would be financial harm. It is my personal opinion that we in medicine financially harm almost every patient we interact with simply by adhering to “the standard of care” which is increasingly morphing into the use of an increasing number of complex and very expensive lab and imaging studies resulting in medical interventions which are often of questionable value for patient health. Just one idgit’s opinion…full disclosure I’m moderately retarded and wrong about a lot. PS…a tidbit for pompous “medical experts” that don’t actually treat patients (I’m lookin at u Anthony fauci and Scott Godlieb) all science should be evidence based and therefore the descriptor is at best suspicious when coming from proxies for stakeholder/corporate medic

In a course I took with nostr:nprofile1qqsyx708d0a8d2qt3ku75avjz8vshvlx0v3q97ygpnz0tllzqegxrtgpzemhxue69uhkummnw3ex2mrfw3jhxtn0wfnj7l329qg I've heard that economics education in college is similar with nonsense to support the banking cartel. In my college education for design, software taught was entirely non-free and monopolized. With the help of community, I taught myself free/libre software shortly after graduating, one of the best things I have done.

yes but not just big-pharma. and not just the food industry either. those are actually just the tentacles of the WEF, and WEF itself is just the latest face of the same Cabal that has been ruling the planet for a while. some call them INTERNATIONAL JEWRY.
