The clot shots cemented the idea that a lot of doctors are willing to completely ignore the Hippocratic Oath. Ignoring everything we learned about the shots, they encouraged the shots to pregnant women on day one! They knew these shots could kill the baby day 1 as they were upfront that their side effect was a fever!
It wasn't even the first example I used, albeit very likely to be far more known about, that went to Theralizumab which has catastrophic trials that stopped immediately because it was going to kill people within the first hour of the trial!
What's funny is there's evidence that thalidomide can be used for certain kinds of cancers. Of course, those prescribed it are rigorously screened, informed of the side effects, and women are required to be on multiple birth control methods.
blame laundering is a hell of a drug. When your job is to do what's right for your patient, but "what's right" is determined be a superior organization beyond question, doing exactly what they say becomes the moral thing to do in your mind.
Couple that with the fact that deviating from the superior organization almost guarantees an expensive and crippling lawsuit, and you have a complete lack of actual medical practice.
Anyone blaming a doctor for his addiction is a lying sack of shit. I don't care if he tells you taking 4 20 mg oxycodones a day for a month will grow your dick two inches.
Idk if it was ever addicts not wanting to take responsibility. I mean any more than that behavior that addicts usually display. It was govern.ents not wanting to be responsible for their citizen's (s' fuck you autocorrect) poor decisions. Which is understandable. But they're going about it wrong.
As they should, this is no different than when doctors were prescribing a treatment to pregnant women that later turned out to cause birth defects.

I mean, Thalidomide pre-empted the jabs by thirty years...
People have short memories.
That's the one I was referring to..
Nothing over the centuries has given a reason to trust doctors unquestionably.
It absolutely boggles me that this stuff just keeps happening.
The fact that we have to say "which time that the medical establishment recommended treatment that caused birth defects?" is insane to me.
It's more that thalidomide predated the internet so it could be memory-holed. The internet has changed the information game.
Maybe for some sure, but even throughout the covid hysteria there were some of us specifically bringing up Thalidomide when addressing things:

Or the "hey, here are as many painkillers you want without any mitigating efforts."

They sued the doctors? There has to be some negligence. Or there used to have to be when juries still had a functional IQ.
