Then Howard turns to Rice with a question she didn't encounter in medical school: "Can I ask you: Last summer, why was it so hot?"
"The overall trend of the hotter summers that we're seeing [is] due to climate change," Rice says, "and with the overall upward trend, we've got the consequences of climate change."
For Rice, connecting those consequences — heat waves, more pollen, longer allergy seasons — to her patients' health is becoming routine. She is among a very small but growing number of doctors and nurses who discuss those connections with patients.

Next they will want to bleed people!
“In my experience about 90% of the doctors I’ve seen are some of the most clueless people around”
Agreed.
The other 10% or so are some of the most gifted thinkers I know.
MD’s are indeed, without a doubt, a group of very odd birds.
I’m so old I remember when lawnmowers didn’t have motors and only worked when you pushed them.
"Because hot weather is climate but cold weather is just weather, Dummy!"
Last summer it wasn’t as hot as many in my memory.
In fact, it stayed green all the way into September and that requires both rain and for the heat not to have that many triple digit days.
Relatively cool and humid for summer on the prairie.
We look to be having a repeat.
We had a doctor quiz our kiddo about guns in the house. First and last visit with that witch. Kiddo was smart enough not to fall for it. Daddy is LEO and in TX so duuuuuuh!
So now junk “climatology” is part of medical school?
So glad you asked. Yes we do; just send al gore a nice big check and the problem is solved. For a little extra dough, he can even arrange for you to have your own personal climate, whatever you would like, that you can take with you wherever you go. Imagine walking around during TS Barry in your own bubble of sunshine and gentle breeze. Mark Steyn didn’t refer to him as Almer Gore-try for nothing.
“Dr, I’m too worried about tectonic plate movement to be worrying about climate change!”
Mine has paintings of things like Christ guiding a surgeons hand
Gun an hunting mags in the racks
And yet, he’s a vegan, but doesn’t preach it
Oh...he also hates what Obamacare did to people. Even he got priced out of his family health insurance , as did I

I am glad it is getting warmer as there was a mile thick of ice over half the USA just some 10,000 years ago.
I imagine with all this carbon dioxide increase that we humans will one day be as big as dinosaurs.
See WalMart for future humans......
Are they asking if you own any guns?
When a patient is hyperventilating in the emergency room should they not be warned of the contribution to global warming their rapid exhalations of CO2 are making?
It is settled science. Is it hot in here or is it just me?
Already fired my Dr but for different reasons
(I’m 45lbs lighter and much better off now)
Or the dangers of nonmonogamous, homosexual and “tranny” lifestyles?
*** “Medical doctors cannot afford to cure their patients” ***
You are getting Medical Doctors confused with Veterinarians
One treats symptoms the other fixes the problems of non-human animals
