Most people don’t realize how bad the situation is in medical schools, worse than in general higher ed
Legal Insurrection ^ | 26 Feb, 2024 | William A. Jacobson

We’ve been sounding the alarm for several years. Ben Shapiro: “DEI Could Get You Killed In the Operating Room”.

We have been covering the growing racialization of medical schools for several years.

Our CriticalRace.org database of medical schools has received widespread media attention, including this Fox Digital article in July 2023, after we completed documentation at all 156 U.S. based medical schools:

The “racialization of medical education” has created a “national emergency” because many of America’s future doctors are being inundated with critical race theory (CRT) and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), according to the founder of CriticalRace.org.

CriticalRace.org, which monitors CRT curricula and training in higher education, has expanded its Medical School Database to include all 155 accredited U.S. medical schools. Findings revealed a staggering 70 percent provide mandatory or voluntary CRT-related coursework or training for students.

“The extent to which CRT/DEI and related programming has worked its way into medical schools is truly shocking and worrisome. Racial and other activism should not be the focus of medical education,” William Jacobson told Fox News Digital….

“The ideological capture of over two-thirds of medical schools demonstrates that CRT/DEI has become a part of the fabric of medical education. We are training future doctors to look at patients through a racial lens, with potentially frightening consequences for society,” Jacobson said.

“It’s often said that collapse happens slowly, and then very suddenly. Medical school education is slowly collapsing, but it’s not too late,” he continued. “We need to stop the CRT/DEI medical agenda before that collapse becomes irreversible.” ….

Is this what we have come to? Medical prioritization based on skin color?

And even if they fix it today (hint: they won’t), it’ll take a decade for the reforms to start producing new doctors.

What is worse these students are being trained to never question the political narratives that are at the core of medical policies and even theraputics. Students who questioned the safety and effeciveness of masks and vaccines were often severely chastised and disciplined. Students of conscience are hounded when they refuse to participate in abortions or child mutilations.

The AMA has been bending over to the latest progressive nonsense for decades.

If you’re a real doctor you see patients. If not, you get on the AMA board and destroy the medical profession.

Some real doctors need to take one for the team and take control of the AMA.

Doctors and Pilots should be hired based on merit...

Want a safe medical experience?

Find a white male doctor with a medical education based on MERIT, not on Kolor, Kink or Kin... (And avoid doctors with degrees from other countries. )

As have the lawyer bar. For supposedly smart people they sure gobble up the leftist lies easily. Lack of critical thinking I suppose, scary.

The examples of medical incompetence are plenty. Be as careful as you can you don't fall victim to one of these medical hacks.

A friend's wife has been near death and six weeks to recover when after kidney stones big as Gibraltar and an ensuing infection was treated for a non-existent pulmonary infection by some black quack.

Partially her fault for going to a doc in a box when she fell ill after having seen a urologist for the stones.

Not a big fan of doc in a box medicine. Most people could get by with first aidr and common sense if they had any.

My son has been weeks trying to get results of an ultrasound for gall stones from the gastroenterologist. The office won't even call him back.

I have spent most of the last month trying to get the doctor to call the pharmacy to explain to them his prescription that does not make sense. Good I am not dying yet. The quack shack clinic won't return calls from anyone it appears.

Most expensive medicine in the world but far from the best. Very far. Medicine in the US can't even commit to process the simplest and most routine things. What do you expect from a bunch of liberal arts / arts and sciences majors, certainly not good organization.

One more example of our failing nation where not much at all works well anymore.

“It’s often said that collapse happens slowly, and then very suddenly.”

**************

This is happening on a broad scale to every institution in our country. Our national decline continues apace.

Absolutely. Medical costs here are many times more than in other countries and often care is worse:

Medical “care” alone will bankrupt the United States. It’s not opinion, it’s math.

t might be safer to only see older doctors with years of experience before DEI took over.

To ~13%, color is everything.

The medical industrial complex has just one goal, to shake the very last nickel out of your pockets as you die.

Yes, it is true and it is just math. It is one of the inescapable and undeniable truths.

I have always tried to find older American doctors who were educated at American medical schools. That has become harder to do in recent years. I guess I might have to settle for foreign doctors educated in more-or-less civilized countries. My current primary care guy is from the Philippines. So far, so good.

Leftism is a cancer that kills whatever it touches.

Which is why they don’t want people to be on the Keto Diet and other low-carb diets, that actually allow people to control their own health. They want you on pills, lots and lots of pills.

Well Democrats and Obama don’t believe in exceptionalism. Good enough is good enough.
