People need to know that medical doctors are TRADE SCHOOL GRADUATES. Nothing more. They are taught the parts of the body, how they work, what can go wrong, and what big Pharma drugs are available to treat various things. Medical doctors are not taught to be critical thinkers. For some reason, society has elevated them far beyond what they deserve in terms of status and salary. About the only good thing about covid is that many more people are now aware of what medical doctors are all about.
Doctors have it easy; the human bodies they diagnose and repair remain the same throughout their entire career. During the 26 years I worked as a mechanic, the cars I diagnosed and repaired were constantly evolving with newer technologies.
A stationary target vs. a moving target, if you will.
