      1/ this is why I kinda emphasize with vaccine deniers. doctors ARE very frequently incompetent, in my experience. vaccine denial is a bad attempt in the right direction same for flat earth and climate change denial!https://twitter.com/newsycombinator/status/1086413522765004800 …

      2/ from personal experience: - I consulted with several of the best otolaryngologists in Moscow and they all told me I should remove my tonsils (surgery takes >week to recover); in the end, when I was already signing up for the surgery I asked the doctor one last time ...

      3/ ... is this REALLY needed and do you have actual RCTs or something and he was like, "well, we always remove them in such situations but actually given that you haven't had serious issues with your tonsils for a while maybe we can wait and see"

      4/ >year later my tonsils are still with me, everything is good, and I now have no plans to remove them; none of the bad things that the doctors were talking about have materialized

      5/ another example: when I had braces installed on teeth 7 years ago, my doctor told me that flossing is REALLY REALLY important. I didn't floss because I didn't feel like it. Did ANYTHING happen to my teeth? Nope. In fact, she never realized I didn't floss.

      6/ now I think studies seem to come out saying that flossing is useless. I have similar suspicions about brushing teeth 2x / day. Non of the dentists I asked could tell me why it's 2x/day and not 1x/day or 3x/day. They were just transmitting the dogma they were taught

      7/ Whenever I go to a GP, I usually discard >half of everything they prescribe, because I did my research and know that no RCTs support these medications

      That’s because you are an idiot and don’t understand medicine.
