Doctors are nervous about RFK. No Surprise. [View all]
Went to a program on eye health for the aging. It was being sponsored by the not for profit Senior Care Community my sister retired from last year. She was in management.
One of the doctors there came up to say hi to her and one of the facility's residents. He said to the resident we have to get your appointment scheduled. She replied just make sure it's before January 20. He groaned and said, a lot of us our worried about what's going to happen with that nut RFK in charge of HHS. Then he added these will be tough times, but this is a great country and we will get through it. Glad he thinks so, because as a Historian, I don't think so, but unfortunately only time will tell whose right. Also I wanted to say why didn't more doctors speak out before the election about how destructive tsf's administration will be to health care?, but I didn't want to start a scene and embarrass my sister.
The ophthalmologist surgeon who gave, the talk, and also the one treating my left eye condition, said in the presentation a few interesting things. That Europe has done a far better job of preventing the acceleration of deteriorating eye sight from macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy than the U.S., and that there aren't going to be enough ophthalmologists in the US as the majority of the population ages.
But hey damn that inferior socialist system.
