Just talked to a doctor. She told me that people who are ill (any illness) should not get medical attention unless vaccinated against covid 19. I asked a few questions, asked her about Hippocratic oath and so on. She assumed I'm an antivaxxer and started shouting saying she wishes I died. Wow. I can't stand how narrow minded and polarized people have become in last 18-24 months. What that hell is wrong.

@zpartacoos doctors have always been some of the worse, too much power.

@freemo I've actually though the same since I was a kid because too many of them dismissed my symptoms which I had googled and found the cause but couldn't confirm until I was old enough to pay for tests they wouldn't give me because "google didn't go to medical school".

@zpartacoos @freemo Similar story here. My wife had fibromyalgia for most of her life, and we were able to put her in remission via loads of research on google scholar and testing different interventions. It's frustrating that people who tend to stop learning new information after medical school have such a large say in who gets diagnosed and how seriously they decide to treat people's symptoms.

@freemo like, I wish they were more humble and not just reject on basis of authority.

@zpartacoos doctors are professional drug dealers working for big pharma. They will do whatever their overlords at big pharma tell them to. It's sad.

@zpartacoos that might be in violation of the rules they have to adhere to. i think i'd do a formal complaint if this happened to me, even if i have got no proof. just to rattle the cage a bit.
