I work in the medical industry, and I have had COVID patients tell me they don't think this is legit. They are forced into these rooms in a shut-down hallway, and they don't have a say in when they can leave. They are being locked down against their will, for $3900 (at least) a day, for the hospital in Medicare kickbacks. I'm hearing a lot of people saying they will do whatever it takes to not do business with the place that I am at, because of the way that they have handled this fake pandemic. Trump had passed an executive order regarding hospitals revealing their itemized true costs of care, medications, and procedures. So when a hospital is suddenly "opening up" the building, that's what they're really doing. They are hiding the fact that they are scamming people for hella bucks. There are hospitals out there being investigated for embezzlement, fraud, etc., on top of medical malpractice, #1 cause of death in the industry.
One article kind of talking about what I'm referring to.
I transcribed medical reports for 18 years and also observed them changing the BMI calculations to make what was once considered a normal weight become classified as overweight, which seemed to result in prescribing drugs that otherwise would not have been deemed necessary.
And I was a med transcriptionist since 1970. I've noticed that they changed the cholesterol level from 250 to 225 to 200; noticeably after reports came out that cholesterol meds were bad or you.
Now that you mention it, I remember that, too. I never put much faith in doctors, and they ruined their reputation with me in 1994 when it took 5 of them 4 weeks to figure out I had a perforated appendix, and that was in spite of me telling them that's what I thought it was. Transcribing only further demonstrated the level of hubris and condescension that exists in the medical community.
