A very thought provoking article. I certainly do look at these good doctors and wonder what else they - and the whole profession - is getting wrong.

However, we also have to bare in mind a couple of things: that the degree of brainwashing in medics re drugs and especially vaccines is very high; and that the stakes for stepping out of the closet is therefore also very high. Most medics that are now speaking against the vaccine have had to come to terms with this latter point - quite bravely in my opinion.

I must say that I do not personally know any medics who have not learnt about the vaccine adverse events either through experiences of this or prior vaccines. Even beyond medics, it seems most have learnt to question either through their own or other people's experimentations. Hence, even though I am one of the people who never trusted the vaccine, it was only due to a previous experiences that I was sceptical. I think it is fair to say that there are not many who can claim wisdom through reasoned scepticism alone. After all, there are many drugs that do work, and we cannot read the papers for every drug that comes out on the market.

So having said all that, imo, what one does with the findings once one becomes aware, and what one is willing to sacrifice in order to act on it, is the true test of one's character. One hopes that everyone also learns to become humbler through the experience.

Very insightful and I understand what you are arguing however I think there is a place for correctly recognising people’s standing (as you have done) and still welcoming them anyway.

When we are looking for significant public policy change, keeping our friends and lesser friends closer is important to achieving what should be our paramount goal; the welfare of all individuals within our society. This ultimately requires a unity amongst professionals towards a common goal and may require relaxing some standard to get there.

PS Anthony Fauci was coming in person to the AMA conference in Sydney 2022 but had to cancel at the last moment due to catching Covid-19 ;)
