There are a lot of posts and comments concerning COVID19 treatments. Pedes share some amazing information. This is a great thing.
HOWEVER ... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE be careful when you post about treatments you personally ascribe. ALWAYS make sure you CLEARLY state that you are NOT a medical professional if you are not ... which most of us are not.
Suggesting or ascribing a course of treatment, if you are not a medical professional, could land you (and this site) in hot water with the 3 letter agencies if they ever chose to target us ... AND DON'T THINK IT CAN'T HAPPEN.
I have seen A LOT of Handshake accounts in the last few weeks doing what I consider could easily be 'baiting'.
PLEASE be cognizant of what you post when it comes to talking about medical treatments. If you are not a medical professional ... STATE THAT IN YOUR COMMMENT OR POST. It won't cheapen your contribution. Cover your asses please.
Its not illegal to give your medical opinion. Its only fraud if you say you are a doctor and you are not. You are allowed to say what you feel is right. You dont have to make a special disclaimer that you are not a medical professional
In California you can be arrested for giving medical advice without a license, even if you know more than a Dr. on a subject.
You can give your advice on a medical topic, what you are saying means you portray yourself as a doctor when you really are not. You are completly wrong, you can give advice on a legal matter too, but you can't be a lawyer.
Not where I am from in Calif., we had to be trained on what we can say to protect the company from law suites. I am saying you don't tell a person what to do, you tell them what you would do in a situation like theirs.
looks at the first amendment
Sure op.
