And my friend with a PhD in microbiology is still getting every covid booster because he's pre-diabetic, for which he's taking Ozempic, so he considers himself to be an "at-risk" person, even though he's otherwise healthy and not overweight.
And if I try to talk to him about any of it, I'm just a layman conspiracy theorist who couldn't possibly understand any of this stuff.
So he'd rather pay out the nose and get Ozempic face than stop eating crap. Over-credentialed retards is a resource this country will never run out of.
That's the worst thing -- he's not even an unhealthy eater. Doesn't do soda, doesn't drink much, likes to cook and bake so makes most of his own food.
But he went to a doctor, they did his routine blood screening, his blood sugar came back borderline, they prescribed him Ozempic, and he just said, "ok, well I guess I'll do what the doctor says."
He's only borderline and his doctor went for the nuclear option? It sounds like there are 2 retards in this equation, and one of those retards needs to lose his medical license. I'd at least understand if he was morbidly obese and had a dangerously high A1C, but even then I'd try dietary changes first.
His doctor is either on the take from Novo Nordisk (the company that makes Ozempic) if he’s dependent on research grants, or else he’s trying to fuck his Ozempic sales rep.
No, he's very good at what he does. He's extremely intelligent, which is why I still consider him a friend and haven't just completely written him off.
He's just stuck in the mainstream media and mainstream institutional narrative.

No disagreement here. I'm sure the logic is, "this person went through the same rigorous training that I did, therefore I can trust their judgement."
Education can't teach wisdom.
Keep in mind these doctors often get bonuses from the pharmaceutical company for writing prescriptions for their products. And yes I am being serious

This is exactly why I never go to doctors.
I'm either going to live to a thousand, or drop dead from some weird and totally avoidable condition tomorrow. It's one or the other.
It's funny too. I've heard Alderall is sold illegally, so he could just sell it to make some money
The near totality of ozempic benefits on T2-diabetes come from ozempic causing a significant decrease in food intake.
If he was not obese and only borderline T2, eating slightly less on his own and doing some daily exercise would have fixed the problem.
He is a retard, and so was his doctor.
Hold on. He is a retard, and his doctor is getting bonuses based on drugs prescriptions.
A university education was wasted on him.
No, he's very good at what he does. He's extremely intelligent, which is why I still consider him a friend and haven't just completely written him off.

Sounds like a smart guy /s (for the other PhDs that didn't get the sarcasm).
