Stop Silencing Doctors

Will COVID-19 burn the current healthcare system to the ground? ZDoggMD thinks so. Watch the video above or read the transcript below.
And as always, keep up to date with the latest on the pandemic with MedPage Today‘s COVID-19 coverage.
ZDoggMD: Hey, everyone. It’s Dr. Zubin Damania. That’s right. When I use my full name, it usually means stuff’s about to get real. OK, guys, I’ve heard about the firing of Dr. Ming Lin up in Washington state. He is a physician, an emergency doctor, who was fired by his organization, PeaceHealth, up there, for speaking out about the complete lack of PPE and protection for frontline staff.
This has been reported all over the place. Here is the bottom line, guys. As clinicians, as the tribe of healthcare, COVID-19 will be the catalyst that burns this broken system to the ground. Here’s why. When you have a dominator hierarchy where the profession is run by MBAs at the top, getting ridiculous salaries, who have never touched a patient … right? I’m not talking about clinician leaders. I’m not talking about all those organizations around the country that are so well led, where it’s a team, where every member of the team has a voice,...read more:

This is just another facet of life where the capitalism has been rearing its ugly head and it did so because the COVID19 has put the entire medical industry under the magnifier for the keen eye to see the disgusting parasitic life forms at the top of the organization. The examples are boundless the national sports teams, MSM, private education system, arms industry, so on & so forth. Hey, why can’t we have someone as eloquent as this Dr. Zubin Damania to run our country rather than having a toupéed bumbling idiot as the king orange.
Our local hospital is so weakly corporate run that my 86 year old father carries $200 to have cab fair to the University hospital.
Great catch Carol. I am not sure that I have heard it articulated so well and so precisely. And passionately. I have a feeling that many in many fields will be ‘remembered’ on the other side of this madness.
While covid-19 has clearly displayed the parasitism of the owner and manager classes the fact is much or most of the entire American economy is so afflicted. Wall Street, the mega-banks, the entire finance capitalism structure are nothing more than parasites living off the labor of the mainly hourly paid working class. When this is over we must simply eliminate this totally non-productive sector of the economy.
I sure hope he’s right. So tired of corporations running everything, mostly government.
Good video! The rotten system of American (well-known) health care in this very covid-19 situation is being revealed. This is the sad fact and poor result, when business interests dominate over the medicine. The USA health care system turned out to be weak during pandemic. And it is not weak because of doctors or the lack of materials and stuff like masks. It is weak because of such things this doctor talks about. And this is the top of the iceberg.
