Regardless of their IQ, doctors are some of the stupidest people on the planet.

Medical schools are now, like just about all of our compromised institutions of higher learning, indoctrination factories that turn students into blindly compliant pharmaceutical salesmen. They'll believe anything they're told by those they view as medical authorities.

A lot of the older doctors are afraid to do anything which falls out of accepted guidelines ....and which may not be approved for reimbursement....people will die due to lack of immediate, appropriate care.... The new grads of these medical of health institutions are as uninspired, and automaton-like as can be...they know AI(bad as it is) might be a better physician than they are for at least 10 years...

Bring up statins and they will attempt to shut you down by referring to the Framingham study and then go on to accidentally admit they have never read it.
