Remember a few years ago when doctors and nurses received their just due as real heroes? As they put their lives on the line to save sick patients during the early days of COVID-19, the American public went out of its way to thank them and show appreciation.
Fast forward to 2022, and some people treat medical professionals as villains, because they think that their medical degree from the University of YouTube beats an actual medical degree. In extreme cases, doctors and nurses have been verbally or even physically assaulted for giving the “wrong” medical treatments or diagnosis for COVID patients. So two years after being hailed as heroes, people are getting out of the medical field because of the abuse they receive.
