Vision for equity and justice in medicineLand and Labor Acknowledgement:
We acknowledge that we are all living off the taken ancestral lands of Indigenous peoples for thousands of years. We acknowledge the extraction of brilliance, energy and life for labor forced upon people of African descent for more than 400 years. We celebrate the resilience and strength that all Indigenous people and descendants of Africa have shown in this country and worldwide. We carry our ancestors in us, and we are continually called to be better as we lead this work.
Equality, equity and justice distinctions
While we, philosophically, have intrinsic and “equal” value resulting from our shared humanity, it is the lottery of birth that arbitrarily defines the conditions, environments and opportunities that largely shape our life experiences and outcomes. We operate in a carefully designed and maintained system that normalizes and legitimizes an array of dynamics—historical, cultural, institutional and interpersonal—over time that routinely advantage white (also wealthy, hetero-, able-bodied, male, Christian, U.S.- born) people at the expense of Black, Latinx, Indigenous and people of color (also low wealth, women, people with disabilities, non-Christians, and those foreign-born) and that is currently reinforced by policies that are blind to power (political and financial) imbalances and realities.
Replacing Medicine and Science with Social Science will be catastrophic to our health care system overall.
Doctors Warn New Medical School Guidance Would Lead to Unqualified Physicians and Unscientific Medicine
I thought these people "believed in science"?
Woke insanity continues
Just wait until Calculus, Engineering and Physics are replaced with Social Science.
We won’t have any new products. Productivity will decline to horrific levels. Nobody will be able to invent anything, build anything, or repair anything. Everything will crumble. People will freeze and starve.
The adoption of “Woke” in education guarantees it. My sister has been teaching math to high school kids for over 40 years and sees this happening every day.
We are headed to the lowest common denominator regarding intelligence and learning. We will have super humans running everything and 99% progs at the bottom living like rats.
Whoever thought the day might come when Americans would have to go to Russian or Hungary for valid, state of the art medical treatment?
With IT now destroyed as a via career path prepare for the medical H-1B invasion. I guess we should all be small business tycoons retailing Chinese goods to each other....
Since so many existing physicians have caved to the vaccine propaganda does it really make any difference who the future physicians are?
This horse has already left the barn. The majority of new grads from physician and advance practice provider programs are female. I just retired from 46 years of continuous active practice as a P.A. and some of the new grads I have encountered have a poor understanding of the basic tenets of quality medical care but they sure have a lot of knowledge about LGBTQ “issues”.
Putting grease under an already DOWNHILL SLIDE.
What...is that something new.??
This is an excellent point, to which I can personally attest to unfortunately.
They won't be able to graduate "equity" quick enough, so they will invariably resort to importing equity.
In 1910, The Flexner Report revolutionized medical education in North America by forcing the closure of proprietary (for-profit) medical schools in favor of rigorous science-based medical education, and yes, meritocracy-based education, largely after the German model of medial education.
Prior to this sea change in medical education, it has been estimated that a patient had only a 50-50 chance (or less) of being helped by a “physician” of the era.
Well, 100 years was a good run for rational thought!
The Idiocracy has triumphed!
I’d just be happy if I could find a neurologist anywhere that doesn’t look and speak like he should be fixing street food in Coimbatore
“Just wait until Calculus,,,”
Calculus has been dropped, I forgot where, already, as being too white. I read it on an FR, non BB, article.
We aren’t headed for Star Trek’s meritocracy, we’re headed for Idiocracy’s idiocracy.
The past two years has convinced me that a great many doctors no longer believe in science.
They are simply cogs in the deep state wheel who are happy to cash payment checks and process they are smart.
They only believe in weird science.🙄
