Having diagnosed at least half a dozen cases of scurvy over the years I wouldn’t say they are dumb. Just their diet is. It’s not like they’re Bernie voters! However my impression is most of my fellow physicians aren’t good at recognizing it.

WHY oh WHY don't those people, who have this disease, know that they have to have foods heavy in vitamin C in them, in their diets? Okay, so some might be allergic to or just not like something that contains vitamin C, but the list of the varieties of fruit and veggies that do, is large!

We learned all about scurvy in both science and history glasses in grammar school!
