like, I& #39;m a nurse by training. Patient education is one of the most joyous of nursing duties. If you can help a person take care of themselves, that& #39;s the best feeling https://twitter.com/mountain_goats/status/1312021527416766464">https://twitter.com/mountain_...
and if you try and try and the patient says "well, & #39;hypertension& #39; whatever, you guys use a lot of 50-cent words but you& #39;re no smarter than me, and besides, Big Pharma is evil*, I have to follow my own path"
*people don& #39;t say this without cause, mind; however, etc
then it& #39;s much more frustrating than satisfying when the patient ends up on the ICU. "the patient" here isn& #39;t the president, it& #39;s the people who listen to him and who react to the state of play; they& #39;re not going to suddenly embrace science,
they& #39;re not going to suddenly say "maybe the weaponization of CDC data for political ends is Bad, Actually,"
they& #39;re just going to spin conspiracy theories, as will plenty of people from the other side of the political spectrum
the patient just doesn& #39;t want to hear about the actual problem
and we can& #39;t isolate the patient, so the infections, along multiple branches, spread. Hi, we& #39;re the Mountain Goats /thread
