Ben Carson carries the title of “Doctor” for a reason. It is not honorary, and it is not frivolous, he EARNED through years of study and practice.

Now, many in the medical profession do tend to get fixated thinking from time to time about one procedure or another, but the one constant that is taught in medical schools everywhere is that at least 50% of what is recited as irrefutable fact in these classrooms will have been proven absolutely and totally WRONG, and in fact probably very harmful over the long term, but the prospective doctor does not learn which is which until perhaps late in years.

That is why it is called the PRACTICE of medicine, and why it is more art than science at times.

For personal and in his mind, well-founded reasons, Dr. Ben Carson happens to BELIEVE in the effectiveness of vaccination, but the jury is still out on that one.

I do not discount his very real abilities in most areas of his life simply because this one single belief.
