In medicine, we don’t “debate” big topics. We peer review them. We study them. It doesn’t mean that opinions don’t change and can’t vary. It just means that practice isn’t changed in arguments with Presidential candidate lawyers who can out gish gallop doctors and scientists.

I’ll guarantee you that if your doctor shows up to work like this, they’re probably amazing doctors that know ties are fomites and that what’s most important is how the patient is doing, not how the doc looks. Shlubby docs are the best docs.
