Ahhh
Doctors

If it were not for penicillin, doctors would still be walking around shaking rattles and wearing beaks.

Doctors are, on the whole, butchers who rely on the human body to repair itself.
Only chemists who have discovered ways and means of helping, have truely contributed to the health of society.

Doctors hack, jab, remove and mangle bodies.

Only the occasional brilliant doctor actually helps.

Engineering has advanced to amazing levels, FEA once impossible to carry out is now commonplace
3d graphics and engineering theorey is being rewritten every day.

But doctors still simply hack, cut ans remove.
Butchers in suits

Ask any doctor.
They will tell you that the best way to live a long life is to stay away from hospitals and doctors.

I cant remember exactly when,
But I remember reading something years ago.
The doctors went on strike, it may have been the UK, cant remember.

But the death rate dropped considerably in that time.
It can therefore be concluded that doctors = death.

Hell they treat cancer by poisioning the body to the point of death, hoping that it kills off the cancer before the patient.

Trillions of dollars are given to cancer research every year.
Doctors make billions for cancer treatment

There will never be a cure, simply because its worth far too much not to.

Before the discovery of modern medicine, life expectancy in Europe was about 35.

I agree with Valkie on this issue, your local GP these days is nothing more than a drug dealer, they don’t even know how to take blood samples anymore they send you off to pathology.

Drug companies visit the GP and offer incentives to distribute their brand of drugs, if the GP meets the quota in 12 months’ time he may get a $5000 bonus or higher, how do I know, one of our friends became a chemist and his first job was to market the drugs for the company he worked for doing exactly what I described above.

As for hospitals when a patient comes in ill they will diagnose the symptoms and administer the cure, but they don’t ask can this patient handle what we are about to give him/her as the cure, they follow procedures even if it means the death of the patient.

If you question them can he or she take what you are about to do, or if you oppose what they are about to do, they will hit you with do you want us to save them or not, leaving you no option but to agree.

What about specialists, mum had a spill towards the end of last year she went into hospital and then into old age care, she had suffered chronic osteoarthritis in her knees for about 10 years and was in a wheel chair, she could just get from her chair to her bed or toilet.

While she was in hospital a specialist with his team of novices came by and picked up her file he then ordered that she be given a whole lot of pain killers and that the next day they would try to make her walk, he boasted that by the end of this treatment she would walk 40 metres.

I was present and I said to the doctor your kidding aren’t you, I told him my mum’s knees were rubbing bone on bone and that she’s lucky to walk 2 metres at best with the aid of a frame.

Of course when we get ill we are going to go to the doctors or the hospital, but if you’re a really old person whose body might not be able to handle the cure or remedy they give you then you might not be coming back.

Heaven help you from doctors and lawyers.

Public health, like running sewers had a lot to do with decreasing the death rate/lengthening life expectancy.

Over the last 70 years in Western countries smoking has become unpopular, that helps life expectancy too.

The only threat I can see: idiot antivaxxers not vaccinating their children. Measles epidemics are already occurring and I dread seeing news about a new polio epidemic. My generation would all have had at least one kid in their class with their legs in calipers. I certainly remember the epidemic in the mid 1950s, the broadcasts telling everyone to wash their hands after having been to the toilet.

A paradoxical truth?
