The two controversial Bakersfield urgent care doctors (0.03%) have to be baws, right?

That Central Valley area of California is as red as the deep south if not redder.

One funny thing I noticed in the video was the one doctor started listing off all the classes he had taken in med school to try to establish his credentials. Who does that?

Did they list any math or stats classes they had taken? That’s where they seemed to be lacking a bit.

Not sure what the big deal is with this, those where just to MDs giving their opinion. Agree or not, it’s just two opinions.

My primary has been testing all the patients who come through his doors, for any reason, to see how far the virus has spread, and to get a better sense of how deadly it is.

He's come to the same conclusion as the Bakersfield doctors.

I should add, primary care physicians are in a good place to make these observations. They see a lot of patients, and patients of all ages and backgrounds. That gives them a better overall picture vs a specialist.

Rattling off classes taken is kinda douchey and weird.

I do think 0.03% seems kinda low to me.

However, that's much closer to reality than what WHO, Democrats, etc were saying.

I'm willing to listen to their opinion however.
It's healthy to have dialogue.

This. With all we’ve learned since this shite started I’d hope they’d get every opinion from as many professionals as they can. MDs, RNs, PAs, epidemiologists, virologists all ought to have a seat at the table cause I’m tired of limiting our expertise to a handful of experts.

My doctor said that jbe is giving them 20 bucks for every positive corona test and 500 bucks for every corona death. He’s been driving around looking for wrecks and hobos that overdosed to get that corona money

Had my annual physical a couple of weeks ago...Family Practice. Not one inkling of PPE seen among the staff which I thought to be interesting.

Cmon Gaucho, there’s got to be at least ONE RN out there that has something of use to add. Now finding her...

And the last PA I dealt with was pretty damn good so there’s that.

I understood that to be his way of saying, while we aren't PhD researchers like the "experts," we do understand virology and epidemiology enough to analyze what we see as ER doctors.

When I first saw them last week, I tried to find a rebuttal. All I found were vague comments from the County clarifying that they hadn't actually agreed with these docs. The County didn't rebut the docs' actual statements about the virus.

I'm not saying they're legit or not. This was just my experience. I haven't followed up since the FB/Google campaign to silence them.

When their opinion is based off of objectively incorrect application of basic fricking math, their opinions can be completely dismissed, IMO.

Obviously, we have to loosen the restrictions, but maybe we shouldn't be looking to these clowns for advice.

OP is about 0.03% of information

Exactly, they want things to open up and saying that is not the problem. Saying we are experts, you should trust us and here are the facts, and then completely getting those basic "facts" wrong is the problem. They are either being intentionally deceitful or they are stupid.
