Not to ask the obvious, but why would the "world's#1 weight loss surgeon" be the one who should be giving this overview?

That's what I ask when I see a handful of chiropractors (not even a medical doctor) on youtube giving advice on diets and nutrition and stuff.

However... this guy is an actual Medical Doctor, with a degree, a residency, etc... just because he specializes in weight loss surgery doesn't mean he isn't well versed in general practice, right? I mean, most doctors go through the same MD school and then either go into general practice or a specialty, right?

No, you're right... He's still a medical Dr.

Just odd to me. We have actual epidemiologists from the CDC and WHO who tell us about this disease.

But the one people want to watch is a weight loss Dr?

Victor, though unlikely, it is entirely possible that Dr DUC is an expert.

Bill Gates has no medical background, yet he is one of the most forward thinking and knowledgeable people in the world on pandemics, pandemic preparedness, and pandemic vaccine development in the world.

I just wanted to highlight that part... prolly the only time you've said that to me. 😂

Does it matter where you get your information if it's accurate? Watch the video. I don't think he contradicts what has been said. He's pretty adamant that it's serious, and he explains it in layman's terms.

Maybe that last part is the key.

Plenty of chinese people that were believable. I say were because the emperor over there shut them up. I don't believe a damn thing they say, now.

Did they find that billionaire who called Xi a clown?

His delivery is a bit forced and rough.

He states up front that his patient base is particularly ulenerable (obese), hence his extra interest and concern.

Eh........for Drafter, I’m gonna interject.

Epidemiologists study Incidence, Prevalence and Mortality, and then overlay other data bits, depending on what they are attempting to predict/project or analyze after the fact.

Etiologists study causation, etc.

When you have GOOD data for both, you can implement fairly effective containment, and ultimately treatment and prevention measures.

If you’re missing one piece, your kinda fuqed a little.

If you’re missing both, as the world was initially, thanks to the Chinese policies, well............you see what you get.

I saw two 14 year old boys eating and laughing around 11am a few days ago at a Turkey Hill convienence store

about 2 days ago....one was oblivious...the other watched intensely my trash lotto ticket antics and was calculating his future earnings...

One smart dude and one dumb f*k...both stoned.
