@AndrewZywiecMD Your explanation for vaccines causing neuroinflammation I might disagree with being exact causes. I think it’s a bit worse. I think pediatricians have to be some of the most dismissive of their patients (kids) visible distress I have ever seen in my life.

[George @AGC3PO]

@malinda_schuck @AndrewZywiecMD Pediatricians who don’t do anything to calm a kid wailing in their office while the patients parents are right there I would love someone to challenge that local hyper connectivity post trauma unaddressed comes to transition into widespread underconnectivity (autism)

[George @AGC3PO]

@AndrewZywiecMD Pediatrics and psychiatry/psychology not being able to explain the phenomenon that people observe is why I’d say they’re damaging. Andrew I don’t think what you believe doesn’t look like vaccines are causal to autism symptoms. It looks exactly like that.

@fountainofman @strike123__ @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone It’s okay man. You’re not in a position where having that world view or thinking I’m stupid costs lives so I can actually sleep at night knowing that. Again I’m for vaccinations, and you only hear I don’t think that saved as many lives as not killing people we disagree with.

[George @AGC3PO]

@fountainofman @strike123__ @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone I can tell from the way you talk to people your world view holds no regard for diplomacy, and I still wouldn’t call you dumb. I would say I’m just glad you are not in any position where that view would result in disregarding 3% of the world population dying from war.

[George @AGC3PO]

@fountainofman @strike123__ @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone It’s ignorant also to say that to someone whose parents immigrated here from a country that didn’t have access to vaccines until the 70s and would have had another aunt to meet if they hadn’t died from tetanus. Reality is diplomacy saves millions more.

[George @AGC3PO]

@fountainofman @strike123__ @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone You’re aware world war 2 a global conflict killing 100 million people mostly in their 20s over 7 years was also occurring right? It would not have mattered if they had today’s medicine in that context.

[George @AGC3PO]

@ChristineOfSals @DrNeilStone I can see how that statement seems very intelligent and sharp to someone who likely hasn’t changed since they were 6. That would make sense why that makes any sense to you.

[George @AGC3PO]

@ChristineOfSals @DrNeilStone I donated a kidney what’s your point. Fuck me for suggesting that maybe doctors should be careful not to erode trust in patients especially pediatric ones or have a visit be distressful and if not yeah you’re the smart one wondering why people don’t want to get vaccinated now

[George @AGC3PO]

@strike123__ @fountainofman @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone While what I said to you is still the same just because I’m on your side I don’t think it’s a good practice to just dismiss a person who you are hoping learns. That is the same criticism I would have of Neil. Doctors who are great don’t have some title for being a good doctor.

[George @AGC3PO]

@fountainofman @strike123__ @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone Those stats like average of 40 is used mostly to suggest medicine has improved the potential longevity in people. I’d argue maybe a little, medicines foundation came from a guy who lived to 91 in the late BCs. A year many will not attain even with modern medicine.

[George @AGC3PO]

@fountainofman @strike123__ @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone That’s a historical fact btw. It would suggest we should take into account abortions and see where life expectancy ends up. I don’t suggest to know. That 40 years statistic is from 1943. Do you know enough about that historic period?

[George @AGC3PO]

@fountainofman @strike123__ @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone I would also invite you to join reality. Abortion has been a practice for thousands of years in fact. You should look into why Christian’s are against it yet it says it nowhere in religious text. Abortion however could only be performed after the third trimester at the time.

[George @AGC3PO]

@fountainofman @strike123__ @GeilerGo @DrNeilStone Yes and it’s a descriptive statistic (an average) that doesn’t convey anything about the distribution. Do you think it’s the same world where everyone either dies at 1 or 80 versus one where everyone dies at 40.5 years?

[George @AGC3PO]

@zafar_51 @DrSuneelDhand Well for me, with you as a psychiatric patient I’d obviously feel obligated to see if the carotids sounded like you were about to have a stroke if you in good faith are asking that. It’s also just an opportunity that for doctors builds trust with patients.

[George @AGC3PO]

@EricTopol Just also always skeptical because it’s like always in the back of my mind the foundation of scientific approach to archetypes and personalities was done by Jung, and we slam pseudoscience while forgetting astrology was the basis of analytical psychology lmao.

[George @AGC3PO]

@EricTopol I know I rely on inference way too much and like we also know the brain rewards itself when predictions are right but I looked at this and immediately said, is there a plot of corr coeffs across each because I know neuroticism has to be negative haha. Very cool.

[George @AGC3PO]

@Ghost_RC_ My mom was treated at Mayo Clinic by Gertz who doesn’t usually use his title either and this is the only post I’ve read today where I didn’t even look at the handle to know a doctor wrote this. I imagine being as critical but hopeful as you seem has positive patient outcomes

[George @AGC3PO]

@serenitynigh @DrNeilStone If diagnosis was not a process of inference you could not ever sue for misdiagnosis and win as a deductive process is always 100% certain.

[George @AGC3PO]

@serenitynigh @DrNeilStone I’m not conducting an experiment just a central argument. A thesis paper can have a hypothesis as part of an experiment. I already struggle with self doubt, and I have people saying diagnoses isn’t inference when they are the Greek and Latin words for distinguish or bring forward

[George @AGC3PO]

@ChristineOfSals @DrNeilStone And when I had said “dude that stuff is like heroin idk if it’s worth it for broken ribs just rest for a while” guess who wasn’t a doctor and asked where does it say that anywhere. Me. A kid who somehow foresaw and was right about an opioid can’t be non habit forming
