So i really have almost no respect for the medical establishment.
And generally the reason is that the only drug i have ever used
is cannabis to help me out of the depression caused by being
in apartheid school and being on the receiving end of about 500
cases of child abuse from teachers.
But from a purely physical point of view, I have not been to
a doctor in most of my adult life, and have zero intention of doing so.
In africa life can be very physically tough. Especially on the sports
field. I have more scars than i can count, and as a child it was typical
for me to remove all the skin on my leg going in for a slide-tackle
on a stony football 'pitch' every week.
I play with my cats, and they rip my arm to shreds often in our
game of thumb-wrestling. I find it amusing.
But my point is, that thru all of this, i have never had any of these
countless wounds get 'infected'. But I see people who never
get dirty cowering behind their masks demanding everyone
get vaccinated for all sorts of imaginary reasons.
I had a girlfriend once who got scratched by a domestic cat, and she ran
off to the doctor to get a 'tetanus' injection. After that, she got sick.
Am i superman? Or is it just that we live in a society of mostly
cowards, hypochondriacs and quacks?
