Don’t bring that here

That’s not uncommon for doctors offices and such

Fucking goats?

The web is literally unusable without ad blockers. Your question is like asking “why should I stop bashing my face into the wall?”

Did you just not question my post or are you just intentionally not answering it?

What freedom do you have that you think this is infringing on?

You really don’t see the answer to this or are you just being intentionally ignorant. Would you feel the same way if the government banned lemmy?

I checked. You people are week. But anyway apparently it’s a crypto thing now. What a time to be alive

Untrained people shouldn’t be self-diagnosing based on hearing a list of symptom

This is literally what everyone does. How else would it possibly even work? “Oh shit you mean my foot numbness is a symptom of diabetes?”. Like, this is just how human interaction works.

And I don’t expect any one doctor to know of every treatment that exists for every illness, because that’s what collaborative knowledge bases are for. A carefully moderated medical Wikipedia that can be contributed to by doctors and researchers

What does this have to do with what we’re talking about. Are you saying that the doctor should just input every symptom that every patient gives them to a medical Wikipedia? Because otherwise how would they know of new drugs? They may think they know exactly how to treat whatever symptom, but if they’re not continually looking it up very single time, they’ll miss new meds.

But all of this wouldn’t make the pharmesutical companies as much money as peddling to hypochondriacs so instead we have ads.

What you described is not even remotely a solution to the actual problem of 1. people not knowing their symptoms are potentially from a disease that has a treatment. and 2. doctors knowing that treatment exists

This is a terrible take. Advertising medicine makes a ton of sense. People don’t always know what symptoms are actually something that has a cure. They see an ad for a drug and think “oh shit, I have those symptoms, let me go the to doctor”. Otherwise they just live with what they think is normal.

But further, DOCTORS don’t even know what new drugs exist. Patients advocating for themselves is a HUGE benefit. So a patient might come in and ask for a drug that the doctor has never even heard of so never would have even considered prescribing it even if it was the right drug.

Rofl they named it “Arya”? How utterly mask-off can you get? That’s not even a dog whistle. That’s a swastika tattoo on your forehead

This seems like an urban legend

Wtf? No. What relevance does theranos have to this company? Does the interviewer ask the same thing to any other bio tech CEO?

Yes it’s crazy

I remember software etc. They had a big event for the dreamcast being released. 9/9/99. I wore that free shirt with the date that I got there from playing sonic adventure for like 15 years

Headlines aren’t supposed to be deep cuts to geeksquad lingo that’s only explained in the body.

If the universe is finite and there’s nothing infinite beyond, infinite concepts cannot exist.

But how are mirrors real if your eyes don’t exist?

See. I can post nonsense too

Not true. It happened in this documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfxwzPddXWc

More money means more people saw it. That’s it, whether you care is up to you
