"Medical professionals" are like cops for the medical system. Your role is to enforce the rule of medical "authorities" primarily, and hopefully that incidentally means you heal people, many times it means you harm.
You are not the savior you think you are, neither are your colleagues. I wanted to become a doctor years ago, but couldn't reconcile this truth and had to go elsewhere. Many good hearted would be doctors share this view, thus the medical industry selects for the most status seeking, narcissistic professionals.

Ok then. Take care. Have fun staying sick or whatever bitcoin shit you kids tell each other over here
I've been adjacent to the medical field for 30 years as a biomedical scientist; this is a new phenomenon. Not sure how long the transformation was brewing, but the switch happened quickly in 2020 with covid. Prior to that, the doctor (and patient) made all decisions with the attitude that "the buck stops here" with the doctor assuming full responsibility. Their was true autonomy, and doctors often consulted with each other for wisdom.
Then came covid and the sudden "follow the protocol" mindset. The entire medical community flipped. It was amazing and bewildering to behold. I watched critical thinking collapse to group think in higher education over 25 years; it took only 15 days in March 2020 for the medical field.
Again, it was amazing and bewildering and terrifying to watch. Today, I teach future doctors and nurses, but I've lost all faith in the profession. Both higher ed and the medical professions have fallen before my eyes, and I feel almost lost.
I'm mostly critical of Bitcoin's current state and health is determined by age, genetics, environment, diet and exercise. Medicine is an interventional discipline when one of those categories starts to fail. Medicine doesn't prevent sickness, it treats it.
I saw this too, I was pre-med during the covid fiasco then completely 180ed after. It's a disgusting institution.
I have another friend who's a biochem scientist, and it's insane hearing him talk about how funding works. It's all bought and paid for by giant corporations.
