I trust general doctors to be able to fix things like a broken arm, do test for known ailments ect. But I don’t trust them at all when it comes recommending treatment if the treatment is a pill being pushed.
And this is due to multiple personal experiences. the worst being given a near unlimited prescription opioids as a teenager after a car accident without being told how addictive they are. I will never get those years back and I was told it was safe. And other pills where side effects have cause life changing levels of harm I have still not recovered from years later and they never once went over them before giving them out. I can go on and on about all the times I’ve been mislead doctors.
The idea of the holy medical professional propaganda is such bs and stale at this point a quick Google search will show examples of how device and pharmaceutical companies routinely pay doctors through loopholes and they spend BIllions doing so.
The doctors and research scientists that are developing and constantly improving the technology that allows vaccines to happen is an entirely different group of people from general practitioners.
The person at the urgent care clinic down the road isn’t also actively researching mRNA vaccines, that’s not how any of this works.
It’s crazy “logic” to distrust academia because you had a shitty doctor.
I fully agree that the people doing the work are doing legit science and improving the world, and more than I ever have by doing so. All I am saying is I understand why people don’t trust the corporate companies paying the salary of those scientists.
Those companies will cut corners every chance they can if they think they can get away with it. My problem is with the profiteering ultra rich that push things out they know are harmful. I’m not saying vaccines are. I’m saying the same companies that own the vaccines are untrustworthy.
On top of that the idea that all of academia is holy and not controlled in the slightest by corporate greed is absurd.
