Yes, I do place some trust in doctors, but primarily I place trust in the doctors who know my medical condition, my medical history, and have demonstrated their expertise by me not getting all dead and stuffs. And yes I trust science... not to always get it right, but to at least try to make it right when science gets it wrong. In this case, that is the basis of my beliefs.
from my own perspectives seeing doctors and nurses make false claims about their patients on social media has hammered my trust it was bad enough working in healthcare and them trotting out their stories to see them take it onto social media for followers and likes was and still is indefensible.
I put it this way. If I don't know you I don't trust you. Because you are human first
before anything. Some see that as parannoid, I see it as common sense.
i read what you're saying is if i turned up in an ambulance you'd not trust me to help you, nor trust me to take your biopsies or scans until I earnt that specific trust from you, given the chain of people involved in delivering healthcare I suspect you'd be waiting a long time for the results of any biopsies and scans then..
Now a lot of them are acting like they never behaved that way. A few have apologized or at least admitted to overreacting, but a lot of them sure have been quiet. Embarrassment? Maybe.

".... face the realization that the lunatic fringe - the discounted and despised fragment of anti-VAX schizos might have been right all along... "
Of Course MOST of the People who Damn Well Knew the FAKE Pandemic and FAKE Vaccines were Far from " anti-VAX schizos "
, but Level Headed Intelligent People who Saw the Covid-19 CON from the Get Go . In Retrospect , the Left were the Worlds Worst Liars since Mao Zedong ........
One word "Paxlpvid" says it all, but wait it's science and it works, so you won't move on. Being out of touch with reality is something I just don't get.

Do all of you realize that this is not an exact science. Yes, there were plenty of mistakes made during the Pandemic. And there were plenty of changes made by the CDC during that time. But do you really want to trust someone on the internet that you've never heard of to give you medical advice. There is no question that the CDC, or Dr. Fauci, or any of a number of other medical professionals wish they could have done things differently. The CDC already admitted to as much. This was an unprecedented pandemic and we were sort of learning on the fly. But I would rather trust the majority of MDs in the world than that of the few that disagree with them. And that's because if I break my leg, I'm going to go to a doctor that can set the break and put me in a cast. If I have heart blockage, I'm going to go to a surgeon that can clear my arteries. If I have a toothache, I'm going to go to the dentist to see if he can fill a cavity. Medical science is far from exact, but it's the best thing we have going.

" Pride cometh before destruction, and a haughty spirit before the fall. " Sorry dont mean to nit pick but you couldnt have picked a better verse for the hubris and arrogance you spoke about. I will never trust something that was pushed through the FDA in 6 months. About a year before the plandemic hit, I had been getting a feeling that grew more and more that something big was about to happen. Not even close to kidding. Had no idea it would be a " virus ".

you're the one projecting your trust issues not the other way around nor did I mention injections. I mentioned doctors undermining trust in their own services..

You're not the only one with "trust issues." I actually worry about anyone without some amount of trust issues. To not have some amount of trust issues means one simply does whatever is suggested.
I have varying amounts of trust depending on who is speaking and their history. For example, I could leave a bag with $1,000,000 in it on one friend's front porch and not worry about it; I completely trust his honesty. I don't trust his advice necessarily... he has given me bad advice in the past. I trust my doctor's diagnosis, to a point... if something sounds serious I may want a second opinion. I do not trust his honesty with money.
It all depends on the person.
I trusted Fauci in early 2020; he has exemplary qualifications. However, I do not trust his motives since he has been shown to be less than honest and more political in nature; I no longer trust his advice. Same with the CDC in general.
I don't trust car salesmen, except maybe to follow the letter of the law. I trust lawyers to do what is best for them, not necessarily what is best for their clients or for justice. I trust EMTs as long as there are no personal histories. Heck, I do not even always trust myself!
Anyone who trusts implicitly is a fool just begging to be fooled.

Have you since looked into Fauci's past, and how he handled the AID's crisis or all his ties to big pharma and gain of function research?
How he experimented on African american children in New York, tested vaccine to sterilize women in africa and did unessasary experiments on beagles?
