Literally nobody attacks doctors compensation not even Bernie. Insurance companies are usually the target of progressive attacks. But even in that argument doctors have a huge part through billing.

I can imagine that if you stay on the straight and narrow as a doctor you may not become as rich as possible. But since there's so much opportunity getting that pharma money I'm pretty sure it's skewed the ethics for your entire profession from top down.

Where are the voices of health professionals speaking counter to propaganda against treatments like hydroxychloroquine, ignoring studies that directly counter claims the misleadia makes or speaking out for the patients who are waiting for cancer or surgeries they need but can't because the hospital cancelled electives? I feel there should be an ethical requirement that you temper down inflammatory disinformation and try to be less alarmist for everybodies sake, something in your bed side manners etiquette. I see the articles here and while that's helpful our cause really needs your accredited voices speaking directly against politicized organizations giving this distorted health advice. Write a letter to your newspaper and speak out against politicized health and science policy. I dunno something more than following orders, please do the right things here.
