People of any stature or position, but most especially in highly visible leadership roles, aught not put out baseless claims accusing doctors and hospitals (is the very people and places keeping AMERICA alive right now) of fraud without evidence.

SHOW ME THE EVIDENCE OF
WIDESPREAD FRAUD OR SHUT THE HELL UP.

How any American can take these lies at face value given what American healthcare professionals have already sacrificed is beyond me. We are sacrificing our own physical and mental health on a daily basis without adequate PPE, for you
and your families. Even when you bash us and denounce COVID as a hoax. We still help you and your loved ones. And this is how we are compensated?

My blood is still boiling. I’m tired of the conspiracies. I’m tired of misinformation. I’m tired of crappy or non-existent science
and misinformation being the guiding force in a pandemic. I’m tired of fighting. I’m tired of risking. I’m tired of making my living will and asking my partners to sign it, at the age of 40. I’m so so tired. And I come from a place of immense privilege. I can only begin to
imagine how much worse those experience is for Black/BIPOC and minoritized healthcare professionals. It must be exhausting.

This attack on all of us, accusing us of fraud after we have fought so hard and risked so much to save a country that is drowning in willful ignorance,
can not stand uncontested. Every major medical body and society needs to stand against this offensive and dangerous rhetoric. Undermining American faith in American doctors during a pandemic is about as dangerous as it gets. We have earned the trust and respect of our patients
and their families.

Enough. Enough of this. We are tired.
