Here’s Why Trump’s COVID Diagnosis Was A Disaster

  • President Trump was diagnosed with COVID-19. Even though it’s been several days now, and we’ve known this was possible for months, it’s still so bizarre to read. Unfortunately, the tragedy of COVID-19 does not just stop at the infection of people like Donald Trump, but rather extends to the megaphones of our most mainstream media outlets. I’ve been in more Twitter feuds over the last week than I have been in my entire life on the platform, arguing with contributors to outlets like CNN, The Washington Post, and Fox News, among others. It seems to me that this virus and our political vitriol towards each other has caused us to lose all sense of logic and decency. From criticizing DO’s (Doctor’s of Osteopathic Medicine) for being inferior to asking doctors on TV to participate in “tabloid medicine”, I’m almost beginning to lose my cool. Today I walk you through what’s brought me to my breaking point.

      I understand why though that this really chilled teacher is being like this. He is FED UP with all this hypocrisy and bigotry that is occurring everyday with people who call themselves 'professionals'. Its a Insult To His Job that he has to correct other grown ups who should be fact based instead of rhetoric based. He is disgusted that he sees the doctors of trump covering up facts and still downplaying the COVID-19 Pandemic. He's very exhausted that Politics had to mix with Science during this Worldwide Health Crisis. I understand why he's angry. I agree with everything he said but we need to stop caring so much about the rest of the world because the world DOES NOT LEARN nor does it want to learn from their mistakes. Dr. Mike needs to stop caring so much about people and only care about the smart people. Because the smart people are going to be the True People who will survive this Pandemic in the end.

      @@rafaelhernandez6525 As a general rule, if someone is finding success in politics, they are not there to help other people.
      I often get labeled as 'alt right' because i put people before politics, and often times, that directly conflicts with left leaning view points.
      I oppose adopting the same single payer systems used by Canada or the UK, but i am not opposed to a system that would help people get the care they need (i work in medicine, i want to help people, but i want to do it right, not adopt feel good measures that look good in theory, but are terrible in practice).
      I also oppose affirmative action, especially in medicine. Affirmative Action is not a good thing, period. They lower the standards based on race, and this not only insults the intelligence of minorities like me, but puts patients at risk.
      My views are 'American' Center, but my views are based on long term, sustainable, policy, rather than 'look at me' policies that do more damage than they fix.

It is impossible to think of every single point and issue that one could possibly think up and answer that, nor would people want to sit through a video that does that. I think Mike did a great job. He was concise and kept what he was talking to on what was relevant to the direct topic rather than the auxiliary topics that he could have gone into which would have lessened the impact and clarity.

      I can honestly say as a former science journalist, it's not that they are trying to mislead - it's because they are mobile examples of the Dunning-Kruger effect. Some of us have actual training in science, technology, etc which makes it much easier to cover science and medicine and related areas. We know to check. But there are not many science journalists and pretty much no regular journos with backgrounds in sciences - and for COVID life sciences since what the hell would a physicist likely know about medical stuff? And people on social media have gotten really lazy and respond too quickly. I have even seen accredited medical doctors on twitter with no background in infectious diseases questioning the actual infectious disease experts, like a neurosurgeon would know more about pandemic control and COVID than an epidemiologist, for example. :( People need to check if they have no training in an area but so few people want to bother, journalists or not! It's laziness and reactivity and Dunning_Kruger effect, not mal intent in almost every case.

      So different networks will have very different opinions, and opinion columns or pieces are extremely biased. Traditional news outlets though also state facts, report on factual things. Often the facts that will be highlighted will be chosen because it aligns with a certain political line (for example, giving data on the percentage of Black people in prison vs giving data on the percentage of Black people being randomly stopped and searched). But the facts that are given have typically been checked and there's been multiple people who reviewed them. News outlets also have the duty to issue corrections when it turns out they said something false (not just an unpopular opinion but a fact that is demonstrably untrue). This oversight does not exist on places like TH-cam or blogs, or Twitter. Which is why the description of reputable TH-cam channels often contains many sources to back up the facts that they are bringing up. Viewers on TH-cam channels should make the extra effort of checking that there are reliable sources backing the facts used to build an argument. Whereas on traditional media it is more a matter of looking for other media to question the arguments or see a broader set of facts that could balance it, not checking whether the news anchor is outright making stuff up and lying.

If more people thought and behaved the way you do, then perhaps our society would be making better strides in how we grapple with this pandemic mentally, emotionally, and physically. As always YOU take care, may you be well as well as those most important to your life. Love brother.

    Great video Dr. Mike. I’m a podiatric medical student and we take courses with the DO students at our school. Podiatrists sometimes are looked “down on” by MD or DOs (especially in the orthopedic world) but our school fosters a great camaraderie between the DPM and DO’s that is helping to decrease friction amongst our professions and increase our focus on teamwork so we can advocate more for our patients.

    Hello, Mike. I am an MD doctor and proud to call you a fellow physician. A DO is by no means less than an MD, and anyone who thinks this way is simply stuck in a very conventional/narrow mentality and is clearly not a medical worker. No role, small or big, in the healthcare world is less than the others. Anyone who sacrifices their life, youth, health, time with their family to work in a hospital, even before there was ever a pandemic, is a noble and selfless person and is dignified and important, whether you are MD, DO, PA, nurse, radiographer, technician, janitor, receptionist or porter etc.

      Im on my way to becoming a Pediatric DO, and I cant help but notice the pay difference compared to the job load. Money isnt everything to me, so I’m not sobbing about it, but I can’t help but feel like others are being under appreciated while putting their lives on the line.

      I think it is easy to misunderstand DO and MD. In the US they are basicly the same, but in a lot of other places osteapaths are just a fancy massage therapist that have little to no medical training, and are bunched together with other branches of alternative medicine. I think its weird that DOs in america don't get MD because that would make it less confusing for people seeing as they have the exact same training and can give the same treatments as US MDs.

      @@magnus6024 Yep, that's a point, in most other countries osteopaths are not considered physicians. The US is one of a few places where osteopaths have to go through the same medical training as MDs. But it's also important to point out that these journalists are mostly American. It's understandable to make a mistake if you are a foreign journalist from a country where this distinction between DOs and MDs exists, but they are American and should know better.

      He probably should have said out front that he has a OD degree, oh, he says right at the end. That said, the merger of MD and OD training has rubbed off the flakey mystical aspects in the origins of Osteopathy so that OD's now are just doctors with some extra training that is valuable when skeletal-muscular problems are the actual cause of problems. This contrasts with homeopathy which is still snake oil and nothing more.

Soldiers aren't and were never treated like heroes, countless veterans end up in debt, on the street with severe cases of PTSD and aren't getting the help they deserve for putting their lives at stake. A pat on the shoulder just doesn't do it. The ones profiting from war and being treated like heroes are the people in high places, people who sit on their comfy office chairs and send out soldiers as if they were emotionless chess pieces. The working class, be it in minimum wage jobs, medical field or military, are always the ones paying the price for big people's decisions and it's truly sickening to watch.
