I would bet this story, though it may have some truth within, is significantly embellished.
That said, I don't know if I would go so far as to say there is a massive coordinated coverup effort amongst the medical profession as much as some/many in the profession have FULLY embraced their high degree of self importance attributed to them early on during this episode. As such, they refuse to question anything that may go against their preferred narrative. I see doctor friends on social media who are all in on pushing the agenda. Now, there is no question they have more information at their disposal that I do. But I also believe many are wholly unwilling to keep an open mind about this matter and accept/evaluate all of the data as it continues to come in. Rather, they summarily reject any data that may be contrary to their, now, predisposed position. That is incredibly troublesome. You would hope/expect a medical professional to allow the data to lead them to the conclusions, even if those conclusions change over time with more/different data, rather than start with a steadfast conclusion and then reject any data that my challenge that conclusion, ALL because they now feel they are as much an advocate as a doctor. Even more troublesome is that perhaps the reason they don't take that approach is because they are hesitant to go against the "approved" narrative of their peers and profession.
