“Wokeism” is now sadly infecting the field of medicine.
Some of the madness is self-inflicted and some is being pushed on healthcare
providers from the outside.
Case in point: A New York Post article states that “Experts are now recommending that doctors reduce
their use of certain kinds of anesthesia in
order to combat the effects of climate change.”
Speaking
at the American Society of Anesthesiologists annual conference recently, Dr.
Mohamed Fayed, a senior anesthetist at Detroit’s Henry Ford Health, opined:
“Global warming is affecting our daily life more and more, and the reduction of
greenhouse gas emissions has become crucial.” He added, “No matter how small
each effect is, it will add up. As anesthesiologists, we can contribute
significantly to this cause by making little changes in our daily practice —
such as lowering the flow of anesthetic gas — without affecting patient care.”
Might want to check with the patients before limiting their anesthetic, doc.
Especially for major surgeries. And given the fact that inhaled anesthesia
accounts for no more than 0.1% of the world’s carbon emissions, yet
accounts for nearly 100% of patients’ pain avoidance when undergoing various
medical procedures.
We also
recently learned that Dr.
Austin Harris-- a Californian who treated the mortally wounded Ashli Babbitt after
she was shot by a Capitol Police officer outside the House of Representatives
on Jan. 6, 2021-- was arrested by the FBI on charges stemming
from his time at the U.S. Capitol that day.
An Epoch Times article
notes that Dr. Harris was charged (in a criminal complaint filed in Washington,
D.C.) with “knowingly entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds
without authority and disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted
building or grounds—both misdemeanors with sentences of up to a year in jail.
He was also charged with disorderly conduct and parading, demonstrating, or
picketing in a Capitol building—both misdemeanors.”
Harris rushed to Babbitt’s aid
after the unarmed veteran was shot, her body lying in a hallway outside of the
Speaker’s Lobby. He was on his knees checking the wound in Babbitt’s upper
chest when a U.S. Capitol Police bicycle officer reached down and grabbed him
by the jacket and shoulders. The officer then wrestled Harris down the hallway,
away from the dying Babbitt.
So, one Capitol policeman shot
Babbitt, and another prevented a doctor from trying to save her life. The
doctor is being brought up on charges and threatened with incarceration,
but the two law enforcement types are uncharged and apparently untroubled by
their actions. Sickening.
And now, Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier
Becerra says that he is considering declaring a public health emergency
to promote access to abortions. In fact, Becerra stated that declaring a public
health emergency is just one of numerous options the Biden administration is
looking at to foster abortion. He recently told Axios, “There are
discussions on a wide range of measures … that we can take to try to protect
people’s rights.” (Just not the right to life, I guess. But, oh well,
that’s not a biggie.)
He added, “There are certain criteria that you look for to be
able to declare a public health emergency. That’s typically done by scientists
and those that are professionals in those fields who will tell us whether we
are in a state of emergency and based on that, I have the ability to make a
declaration.” (Sources say the HHS has the power to declare a public health
emergency if there is a “disease or disorder that presents a public health
emergency.” Pregnancy is neither a disease nor a disorder and is remarkably
easy to avoid in any case. It is the reason all of us exist. Likening it to a
malady is repulsive and despicable.)
It is well known that many-- if not most-- “public servants”
will do anything to enhance their power. It is shocking and dismaying to
say, but there are even those who appear to be almost aroused by the thought of
unfettered abortion.
There is
a public health crisis in this country. More than one, actually. And they
should be declared. First, the staggering amount of excess death and severe
injury, likely caused by the experimental gene-therapy COVID-1984 vaccines--
and the mandates that we all accept them into our bodies. (My body, my choice?
Not in this case.)
And, worse
yet, as hard as that is to believe, is the ongoing collapse of the nation’s
mental and spiritual health. There can be no vaccine for that. And with each
passing day it appears less and less likely that we shall ever recover.
