Doctors grow frustrated over COVID-19 denial, misinformation

The COVID-19 patient’s health was deteriorating quickly at a Michigan hospital, but he was having none of the doctor’s diagnosis. Despite dangerously low oxygen levels, the unvaccinated man didn’t think he was that sick and got so irate over a hospital policy forbidding his wife from being at his bedside that he threatened to walk out of the building.

Dr. Matthew Trunsky didn’t hold back in his response: “You are welcome to leave, but you will be dead before you get to your car,’” he said.

Such exchanges have become all-too-common for medical workers who are growing weary of COVID-19 denial and misinformation that have made it exasperating to treat unvaccinated patients during the delta-driven surge.

Considering that medical schools are for-profit college as much as any other college that has gone to the dogs, I do not trust doctors anymore. They say the dumbest things.

“The vaccines work...”

Because Trump says so?? Trump isn’t a doctor and does not provide proof of his claims. Trump is a recovering Democrat.

I think government funding of colleges and medical schools is why they’re garbage.

Why did you strip down in the garage only to get back in your car the next day?? Seems your car is contaminated.

Again, doctors say the dumbest things these days.

“trying to force others to do what you want.”

Actually, to Mom MD’s credit, she doesn’t. She has stated that she is against masking and forced vaccinations.

“Some day our grand children will be told stories about the time in America when doctors practiced medicine, before they became politicians.”

Also, before politicians became doctors.

As for-profit institutions, they also admit more than 50% foreign students now, as do many universities.

I stripped in the garage and got right in the shower when i walked in. The point was to bring as little in the house as possible not protect me (i’m already exposed) or the car. One does what one can. But i appreciate being called stupid.

Interesting information. I’d like to pass it along, but was uncertain of the source. Do you recall on which forum this was posted?

Unfortunately, that graphic is all I have. It came off the great awakening board, but that’s all that was there.
