New in PJ Media:
Could the day come when you are denied medical treatment because you’re white, male, or a member of some other group of “oppressors”? Of course it could, and it’s coming sooner than you might think. Even in solidly red Tennessee, where Donald Trump won 60% of the vote in 2020, a new report has revealed what the Tennessee Star on Friday called “the pervasive infiltration of woke diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) ideologies in Tennessee medical school curricula and programs.” Could this have an impact on the quality of your medical treatment? You bet your life — and you may end up having to do so.
The report comes from Do No Harm, an organization that is devoted to protecting “patients, physicians, and healthcare itself from the practice of medicine based on discriminatory, divisive ideologies.” Do No Harm states that “the same radical movement behind ‘Critical Race Theory’ in the classroom and ‘Defund the Police’ is coming after healthcare, but hardly anyone knows it.”
One of those who do is John Sailer, a fellow at the National Association of Scholars, who published a chilling article in The Tablet last Wednesday entitled “Welcome to America’s Racialized Medical Schools.” The subtitle was “Forget about the oath to do no harm, future doctors are being forced to swear allegiance to racial dogmas.” Sailer noted that “increasingly, medical schools and schools of public health are enthusiastically embracing the values of DEI and instituting far-reaching policies to demonstrate their commitments to the cause. To many in the universities and perhaps in the country at large, these values sound benign—merely an invitation to treat everyone fairly. In practice, however, DEI policies often promote a narrow set of ideological views that elevate race and gender to matters of supreme importance.” A key aspect of this initiative is “a research methodology called ‘public health critical race praxis’ (PHCRP)—designed, as the name suggests, to apply critical race theory to the field of public health.”
The practical upshot of this is that conventional triage, which in emergency rooms prioritizes treatment based on the seriousness of each patient’s condition, will go out the window. Instead, those who are considered part of “victim” groups will receive preferential treatment, while those who are part of what are designated as “oppressor” classes will go to the back of the line, if they get treated at all. This is already happening: Sailer pointed out that “during the height of the COVID pandemic, New York, Minnesota, and Utah issued guidance for allocating monoclonal antibodies that heavily prioritized racial and ethnic minorities.”
Dr. Jane Orient, executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS), minced no words, declaring that these programs “should be called what they are: anti-white, anti-excellence, anti-science, and anti-Christian.” She added that they “sacrifice the needs of patients, even their lives, to a totalitarian political ideology.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

I’d hope for the day when all our doctors would be AI, so that things like long waiting schedules are a thing of the past. Only issue w/ that is if the AI happens to be from the same people who gave us ChatGPT
Anyway, Hippocrates Oath is now a quaint thing of the past as far as today’s medical ‘professionals’ go. Or else, they wouldn’t be insisting on Covid vaccines, prescribing sexual mutilation to minors w/o parental knowledge, much less approval, or entertaining any of these
DIEDEI ideasOne thing – in Corporate America, while they are downsizing, all the DEI hires are the first to go, and so are all their long term goals, The medical establishment in the US should follow suit
saturnine says
They’re coming for AI just as they are now for human intelligence. Make no mistake, it will be “trained” (re-educated) to deny the truth.

Back in 2020, it was nearly impossible to get in to see a doctor as they were all afraid of the dreaded covid, and one had to go to the hospital for any thing…only, the hospitals were not seeing anyone either.
Many doctors who have wanted to actually *treat* their patients with protocols and methods that work, were denied, and the patients died.
In these insane times, nothing should surprise anyone who has been paying attention.

over at americanthinker. there’s an article today: ‘Trudeau’s government calls for euthanasia program to ‘treat’ children with naysaying parents’
This grotesque leftist ‘progressive’ inspired legislation is another such example of these ‘progressive’ memes come to legal life.

Wow. Every report of that MAiD program is more horrific than the last. As the piece observes, “I’d love to have a groupthink Democrat with a moral superiority complex explain how it would “never” go that far here.” Leftists’ promises are clearly meaningless.

They are ghouls of the worst order. sons of satan the devil.

Medical schools have been tilting toward ideology above all for some time now. Admittants openly discuss having to drop back from a hard science major (or go to an easier school to boot) where they couldn’t maintain a sufficient gpa to get into medical school. Public Health Policy bachelors are an easier road to a higher gpa. No need to wonder now why so many just want you to take that pill and go away, apart from the money factor. Or why they make so many egregious errors.

Dr. Daniel Case practicing medicine at Florida’s Sarasota Memorial Hospital:
A letter to the hospital about Dr. Case threatening and making disparaging remarks to unvaccinated workers.
The letter states an employee was asked whether they would get vaccinated, to which the employee answered “No, e abuse that is my freedom of choice”. In responding Dr. Case allegedly said “You guys are the reason why people are dying and why Covid is spreading”. Additionally the complaint claims the doctor also said “When you guy get fired, then we’ll have a party and Darwinism will do its work and perhaps most egregiously. They should take you guys to the firing line”.
Same hospital Dr, Jonathan Hoffberger yells at unvaccinated patients and refuses to operate o; them.

Nobody is doing their own research. All you’re doing is finding someone to corroborate what you already believe, unless you’re a scientist, running a peer reviewed study, you only know what you’ve been told by someone else. You don’t have better access to data than the CDC. You have Google a flimsy grasp of science or logic. Give me a break with this “I did my own research” bullshit. We have experts for a reason. You don’t know how anything works, let alone the human body at cellular level. You don’t even know how your radio works, let alone the internet”.
August 12, 2021 he tweeted a picture of a gravestone with 2021 on the top and underneath I did my own research, and in the corner Disinformation is Deadly.
I wonder if he ever filed a VARES Report and if he ever heard of Kary Mullis.
James Lincoln says
E T,
That is how Leftist physicians process data.
Stay away from them!
Hoi Polloi says
Mullis is missed. (Side note: He was a child of the Appalachians, as am I.) Fauci avoided his debate invitations and we’d have all gained if Fauci had had some professional ethics, faced him, and admitted that Mullis knew his own Nobel-winning work and how it should be applied.
E T says
Sometimes I wonder about the timing of Kary Mullis’s death. Then on October 18, 2019 event 201 – the plan of the plandemic, sponsored by WEF, Gates…….
If Mullis was still alive at the beginning of the plandemic he would NEVER have remained quiet.
And now “they” are talking about the next plandemic that supposedly will kill millions of children – – is this a CYA episode coming as a result of children being vaccinated?
Wellington says
The Left is ruinous. Rather like Islam.
