Why should doctors be any better than lawyers, or professors, or any other group that has disgraced itself in American life? There's no reason. Doctors have the same degree of wisdom as gender studies professors. The issue isn't medical knowledge. The issue is wisdom and courage. There are plenty of doctors who have it. Read about The Great Barrington Declaration.

Your doctor knows nothing about COVID, nothing. All they know is how the virus works, that's all they know. It is an amazing thing that listening to this show, of a non-doctor, you have learned more about COVID — more about masks — than your doctor probably knows. Not only is it not a boast, it is totally meant to be an attack on the medical profession. I should not know 10 times more than your doctor about all of the issues with therapeutics. And if your doctor thinks ivermectin is dangerous, change your doctor. And I mean it. Might be a nice guy — go golfing with him, or her — but check out another doctor.

Yeah that’s absolut stupidity. If I want information about laws I go to a lawyer, if I want information about a toilet I ask a plumber and if I want information about a disease and how to fight it I ask a doctor (with the right specialization in the best case). Those people have education and experience on their side, while you just have ignorance and immorality on yours.
Please if you have problems with a complex topic ask an expert and not a ignorant looney

It seems that you’re rather behind the times, sir. The Internet has rendered traditional education - and experts - all but completely obsolete. By now everyone and their grandparents know that ANYONE with half a brain can become a bona fide (albeit unlicensed) expert in absolutely ANY field after spending a mere 10-30 days (if even that) on Google, Wikipedia, and YouTube University. (Maybe an additional week or two to become a specialist.)
Look, Dennis, if you insist on being an absolute moron, fine. But at least have the decency not to spread your idiocy throughout the world like it was its own highly-infectious disease.
Your doctor knows nothing about COVID, nothing. All they know is how the virus works, that's all they know.
They know nothing about the virus, except for everything about the virus?
I know that Prager was attempting (badly) to say that doctors only know how the virus acts while inside the human body (which is, incidentally, false), but damn does this part sound really, really dumb.
As I suspect with PSA here , the 'Celebration of Ignorance' is now starting to bite them on the arse.
Coronavirus is doing far worse than that in the Southern states: and all because of their unjustifiable paranoia against the educated. Another prime example of that idiocy? Mike Lindell
It's about to be destroyed by the far superior intelligences in Dominion Voting System's legal department: to the tune of over $1 billion .
And all because you lot don't like to be proven to be inferior to others.
I should not know 10 times more than your doctor about all of the issues with therapeutics.
Indeed, you should not….and you DO NOT. Like @Thraxas said, if I’m seeking medical expertise, I’m going to people in the medical field, not someone who…*looks it up*…majored in Middle Eastern studies and history.
Allright, PragerUwU, next time you get sick, please go die in a forest somewhere, instead of wasting a bed which could be used on an actually valuable person instead.

They sure know more than anyone about medical issues.
Once, Henry Ford sued a Chicago newspaper for slander after they described him as an “Ignorant Pacifist”; when the defense asked him trivias about US history he constantly failed, Ford finally replied he didn’t need to “clutter up [his] mind with general knowledge”, since he had a team of employees who could find these answers. He won (about 6 cents).
At least Ford knew he had to rely on actual specialists: sure, he didn’t know who was Benedict Arnold but at least was smart enough to hire historians.
Dennis Prager is a stupid person’s impression of a smart person. He’s openly bragged about being a useful idiot for Christian fundamentalists who think he will burn in Hell, and he’s openly told Dave Rubin to his face that he’s using Rubin as a useful idiot. And now he’s suggesting a medicine that is used to treat parasites as a means of treating a virus.
Those poor doctors, all those years at university, then working like Trojans during their internships, to know nothing. Whereas you do, with your "university” which is less than YouTube Uni.
Good for you, Dr Schultz, this should go er, viral.
"Read about The Great Barrington Declaration. "
yes, yes, the lockdowns are bad. The option, letting the disease run it's course, then letting the variants run each one's course again and again and again...eventually killing us off, but at least the economy of the ten people still talking to each other will be active....
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
