The Impact of Censorship on Medical Professionals
Many physicians experienced fear and helplessness during the COVID-19 pandemic, as a significant percentage of them are employees of hospitals and health systems. This fear often led to silence on controversial issues, with hospital administrators directing treatment methods, sometimes pushing doctors to overlook standard medical practices. The conversation reveals how this censorship not only distorted patient care but also contributed to a broader distrust in medical institutions. Personal accounts illustrate how dissenting medical voices were silenced, making it challenging for practitioners to advocate for appropriate patient care.
