Not Calling Them Doctors

[Hardcore troubadour 12,647]

If you aren’t doing work on this virus I’m not calling you Doctor anymore. Take your PHD and shove it. Doctors are important. Career students aren’t.

Do the statisticians count?  I think that some of the numbers are pretty damn important and you could even include some of the dudes who run the simulations using artificial intelligence to provide models of what might be happening.  Not all PhD's are the same.

Right.  And none of them are doctors. Like our school superintendent and some professor at a college.

Did you know the Director of the World Health Organization (WHO) is an Ethiopian politician and has a doctorate in Philosophy? He's the first nonmedical doctor in WHO history.

Are these the same guys that run the hurricane models?  Their models using AI are so accurate.

False, Dungby was the first and most esteemed medical professional without a medical license. Equally skilled with a bat or scalpel in his hand. Hope he comes back to us soon.

Yeah so, the head of the WHO, this bushman from Ethiopia ( for gods sake), he’s not an MD. But he’s a “doctor “, of  philosophy. WTF are we doing?

Is that like a Trade Adviser telling a MD what drugs should be deemed medically acceptable?

A trade advisor can’t do that. And didn’t. Good effort though.

Sorry. Lots going on. This whole thing exposes the fact that we have surrendered our safety in the name of playing nice.

We give 10x the amount of money to the WHO than  China, yet they consistently do Chinas bidding. I bet this “doctor” has a few vacation homes, ala Bernie, humble civil servant that he is.

If you're not curing the virus you're not a doctor? Jesus. Will you please kindly inform me what I should call the guys who are curing inoperable brain tumors in little kids? 

 

GD. Attention span much?

Well, you missed the point entirely.   Yeah, I think heart surgeons aren’t doctors. You win the semantics battle. Where do I send the trophy?
