The medical establishment has yet to fully realize the price they are going to pay for letting Democrats, Tyrants, Bureaucrats, and Communist China abuse their position of trust and authority to advance interests antithetical to patients’ best interests.

It is yet another example of the disastrous undermining of integrity resulting from allowing a march through the institutions by leftists.

Medical outcomes depend hugely on the trust of patients in their doctors, and the industry as a whole is so profitable for practitioners, not as some inevitable outcome of their years of dedication and suffering, but because of the licensing-based monopolies they are provided by regulations, and the overall prosperity of the general population (sick and dying people have no money generally speaking — elective procedures, childbirths, and end-of-life care is what pays the bills, and these clients ‘disappear’ among poorer populations — they find cheaper alternatives, or simply suffer their way through)

Iraqi doctors found out how much medical expertise is worth without all that supporting infrastructure, from behind the wheel of a taxicab.

The march of the leftists through the institutions coincided with the introduction of women into the modern workplace. Women have proven themselves very competent in many fields, so the bulk of the damage was more likely done by leftist infiltration, undermining honesty, integrity, and high standards.
