Are oncologists bad doctors because many of their patients die, and plastic surgeons good doctors because the majority of their patients in excellent health? And breaking it down further, should oncological specialists who treat the sickest cancer victims with the deadliest and rarest cancers be paid even less? This is so stupid. When are we going to do something about this? Are we just going to continue voting for the obviously failed republican party?

I think what Oncologists are going to be forced into is a treatment regimen that is more classical - the cheapest chemotherapy drugs available, at least for the patients whose lives don’t meet the coming ‘government standard’ - taxes and production value.

Radiation, targeted therapies, etc. will probably be reserved only for the “right kind” of people.

There was a doctor here in Atlanta, an Oncologist, who was arrested for giving his patients rat poison as chemo. Seems like the chems weren’t all that much different. He did it because it cost him so much less and he could bill that much more. So. Will the government eventually give approval to D-Con?
