if you read the article it’s also a thing decades past, and punishable by law nowadays.
The article says nothing of the sort. 6 states ban the practice, the author assumes it’s been decreasing, and medical organizations have made statements opposing the practices. Nevertheless, after those statements were made, the practice was still ongoing.
You could not be further from the truth. If anything I have a vendetta against vaccine deniers, homeopaths and other science deniers, who are skeptical of medical institutions for all the wrong reasons, and not for right reasons, like this, which are, as I stated, largely unknown.
I just mention that one because his was a particularly egregious case. Do you need me to find for you some other well-publicized examples of physicians assaulting people?
People in positions of authority have abused their power for countless generations. It’s perfectly normal for people to be suspicious of authority figures.
I’m not suspicious of medical science. I’m suspicious of individual humans, who by and large I do not trust for the above reasons.
In some communities there is a distrust because the government, under the guise of medicine, performed human testing without even informing the patients/victims of what was going on, or outright lying to them.
No, this shit is largely unknown,
and if you read the article it’s also a thing decades past, and punishable by law nowadays.The reason why people don’t trust medicine is active misinformation about biG bAd PhArMa and appeal to nature.

Urgh much better link. I’ll take my mistaken conclusions from that other link out.

And Larry Nassar is also unknown?

True but I wouldn’t say largely unknown. Depends on what community you come from
