@DrDeepakKrishn1 @DrDeepakKrishnamurthy What’s truly astounding is the inability to envision a future where plummeting MRI costs, abundant capacity, and AI-driven interpretation making preventive screening not just feasible, but a net lifesaver.
Let’s talk about this tone-deaf statement in a way that cardiologists will hopefully understand. Feminism is not a joke to claim payouts from X out of, especially if you have a platform and a voice that amount to something in your field.
Feminism is literally a matter of life and death when it comes to cardiovascular health. Women’s pain is still dismissed as exaggeration, anxiety, or hormones, and that dismissal means heart attacks get missed every single day. Women don’t show the “classic male symptoms,” so instead of being treated, they’re told to calm down, go home, or wait it out. That delay alone is enough to cost lives.
Medical misogyny is woven into the system. Women in cardiac distress wait longer in emergency rooms, receive fewer diagnostic tests, and are far less likely to get life-saving interventions like angioplasty or stents. Even when women present with textbook symptoms, they are more likely to be misdiagnosed or not believed. Younger women face the highest risk and women under 55 are more likely to die after a heart attack than men the same age, not because biology is cruel, but because the system is biased.
The research pipeline makes this worse. Cardiovascular trials and drug studies have historically been built around male bodies, male cells, and male physiology. When early trials show a medication works better in women, those trials have often been abandoned because women’s responses were treated as statistical noise instead of evidence. The result is a medical landscape where drugs, dosages, devices, and diagnostic criteria are optimized for men first, and women are expected to fit in anyway.
And even access isn’t equal. Women receive fewer referrals to cardiologists, fewer preventive screenings, and less follow-up care after a cardiac event. They are routinely denied cardiac rehab, routinely under-tested, and routinely under-treated. The pathways that deliver timely, aggressive cardiovascular care simply work better if you are a man. Women aren’t even encouraged (by their own families) in rural societies in India to access healthcare if it is prolonged/“cumbersome”.
This is why feminism matters in medicine (and everywhere else). It’s not ideology, it’s survival. Women are dying not because their disease is rare or mysterious, but because the healthcare system was built around someone else’s body, someone else’s symptoms, someone else’s risks. Fixing that is feminist work.
Lastly, some anthropologists trace the custom shown in the picture to fertility rituals. Carrying a wife symbolizes
- the husband’s commitment to protect the wife during pregnancy
- the couple entering a sacred space as a unified body
- the man sharing or taking on the physical burden of childbirth/life-giving.
So till the time men can grow uterus to create and carry children in, cell by cell, while sometimes developing life-threatening complications and even dying in the process like women do, maybe just shut up about your warped ideas of feminism instead of understanding what it is and work towards actual equity.
For the public and patients, please do not stop vaccinating your children. You don't want polio to come back. You don't want measles to kill your child like it is doing in the US because boomer uncles in charge of US Health Departments have become anti science.
The conclusions of this study are not credible either. The "authors" who themselves are a bunch of antivaxxers, funded by an antivaxx organization, who published the study on their own antivaxx website. Not peer reviewed, not scrutinized.
The low IQ authors have selectively amplified weaker associations while dismissing robust epidemiological data from millions showing no vaccine-autism link.
The largest study ever on this, a Danish study found no association between childhood vaccines and 50 different health conditions, including autism, asthma, and autoimmune diseases. Here is the evidence, unlike the pathetic links shown by the other guy.

I had already called out this barefoot walking, urine-guzzling loving CEO boomer uncle before on his bullshit on medical and science, but it seems like he needs to bad mouth science and medical discoveries to keep his head floating above water level on social media considering the fact that his Arattai Messenger App and his Zohodotcom email is going the Koo way right into the gutters.
These health Illiterates have themselves taken these vaccines, given their children their vaccines, and saw them enjoy longevity and now advising others to consider stopping vaccinations. How selfish and bigoted can this get?
Uncle ji, a wise Gujarati chessmaster once told me, "Stay in your Lane", before he got busted out of his game trying to glorify pseudoscience. You also do the same and use the X payout from this engagement to fix your Arattai and Cherattai and whatever third rate app you are cooking up to fool your spinal level thinking bhakt pals. Ok?
Delete your post you lime soda without fizz.
BACK TO HEALTH AFTER LOSING 8 Kgs DURING #ClimateFast...
And back to healing the health of the planet with large solar cookers at our schools.
Our 4 solar concentrator cookers will save 90 Kgs of CO2 emission every day. That's roughly 25 tons per year.
