Doctors are getting angry at their patients
American Thinker ^ | 7 Oct, 2021 | Pandra Selivanov

Apparently, it’s just too much to be asked to treat COVID before people get desperately ill.

One of the more bizarre twists in the saga of the COVID pandemic has been doctors growing increasingly frustrated and even angry with patients asking for medical treatment rather than wholesale vaccination. We have been told for almost two years that COVID is a deadly disease. Naturally, when people test positive for COVID, they want to be treated to avoid serious illness. Instead, they are sent home to quarantine, with no medical treatment until they become seriously ill.

Some patients take exception to this approach and ask for ivermectin, which is being used outside of the United States to treat early COVID. There is a significantly lower incidence of serious cases of COVID in countries that use ivermectin for early exposures.

Doctors are not taking kindly to the suggestion that patients should have access to medication that can prevent serious illness. They are denouncing ivermectin as a veterinary drug as if they were not aware that it was developed for human use, that the FDA approved it for human use back in the 1990s, and that almost 4 billion doses have been administered around the world in the past 30 years. It’s true ivermectin was developed to treat parasites, not viruses, and that it is used for livestock as well as humans. However, there are a number of life-saving medications that are not being used for their original purpose.

“One wonders how much “kickback” each “Dr.” gets for every shot they give.

The profession is getting exposed for the expensive drug pushers that they are.”

Have they ever even released the vaccines to be administered in doctors’ offices?

It’s really about the money, not the concept of treatment to prevent illness.

How much money does a GP get by administering a covid vaccine or IOW
What’s in it for them?

I tested positive 2 days ago. I was basically told the same thing. So far mine appears to be mild. The weird thing is I have had almost NO fever. I did have ear infection in one ear also. I ran a 100.4 last Thursday and no fever since. Main issue I’m having is a croupy cough and dry throat. I don’t feel that bad. Oxy level staying steady. I am not nor will I ever get vaccinated...lol

Untested? There has been something on the order of a billion doses given worldwide.

Doctors who are angry at their patients because it's easier to blame the victim than to man up and make real decisions that oppose their government handlers.

The healthcare industry long ago switched from medicine to law and finance.

"What treatment will legally bring the most money into the company?"

"If the patient can't afford the highest rate treatment we can legally provide, how do we get the taxpayers to pay for it?"

Doctors refusal to address the fraud and hypocrisy of governments release of COVID and treatments afterward has caused a long-overdue mistrust of the medical profession that will take a generation to address if it can be addressed at all.

What’s a concierge doctor? A direct primary care? I think that’s essentially private practice. My pediatrician is private practice.

You bring up an excellent point about the opioids.

This has been going on for quite a while. Americans are being killed by what has passed for “medicine”, because the government doesn’t want medicine.

The only one who cares about the useless eaters in your family, is YOU!

“this is FEAR porn.”

My doctor gave me the full court press to get the vaccine. When I suggested natural immunity would be better and I would like Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine he quickly changed the subject without addressing the comment. The discussion left me feeling as if there was an agenda.

doctors “practice medicine”...

lawyers “practice law”...

they’re the only professions that get away with calling what they do “practice”...

The vaccines are untested. They have not been tested like every other vaccine or drug in our FDA's history. The people getting it now are the test group. Where is the control group? Testing means giving a dose to x number of people and not giving it to the same number (control group). You wait 5+ years and see the outcomes of each group. That is how drugs are usually tested.

Exactly.

And the government is trying really, really hard to make sure that there is no control group for these vaccines. Hmmmmmmmmmm.

Are they angry at the fat people who demand to be treated for diabetes? For smokers with lung problems? For people coming in with STDs?

Get your Ivermectin and have it ready. We’re on our own.

Riverpharmacy.ca

It takes 4 weeks to get it, and it is expensive, but if it saves your life or the life of someone in your family - totally worth it.

IT WORKS !

Indian (from India) doctors are more prone to go off the reservation, so to speak. Try one of them.

The point is that the FDA TOOK MORE THAN 6 MONTHS to test Thalidomide which prevented those defects in babies in the US.

Geez. You just reinforced the point the original poster made.

The researchers have not had TIME to study the long term effects.

…and THIS is the big old scary monster that they’ve been telling you to fear for your life about for nearly two years…

Except for the ear infection, you’re describing exactly what I had just prior to the Pandemic!/Lockdown!.

How different is this bug from others you have had throughout your lifetime - when you weren’t told to panic and look for the government to save you?

Big, bad scary monster, huh?…

Your indictment based on a theory of $$ is thirty years old.

This is no longer about money, per se. Or at least not primarily about money. It’s about tyrannical power and dictatorial control.

To put it simply, the doctors and nurses in the medical community maneuvered en masse to avoid the chop of the axe. Their role in this criminal charade was explained to them early on by the powers that be. Cravenly they fell in line. Cruelly, they did what was expected of them and they are still doing it, finding it impossible to look honest whistle-blowing doctors like Peter McCullough in the eye.

The medical community saw the axe swinging early enough this time to save their jobs and current income flow at the great cost of the health and wellness of their patients.

Next time, they most likely won’t see the glint of the steel early enough.
