Yes, Any doctor who has the belief that non-doctors are simply not smart enough to understand this topic are extremely arrogant. Not smart enough to interpret a scientific paper. Not smart enough to know that a third of studies, that have passed peer review and been published, are fraudulent. Not smart enough to understand statistics. Not smart enough to understand how pharmaceutical companies utilize many tricks to skew, manipulate, and hide data that stand in the way of their billions in profit. Not smart enough to understand what agency capture means and the evidence that it exists. Not smart enough to have read the Twitter Files to understand how Fauci drove the narrative and destroyed any dissenting Voice or opinion. Not smart enough to interpret VAERS data. Any of these beliefs makes a person extremely arrogant. As you have implied, most doctors hold these beliefs, ergo…
To be honest, you sound extremely arrogant as well. I’ve never studied medicine in school so I must also be a “layperson”. Never mind my advanced degrees, long career in tech, and decade of experience investing in early stage bio Pharma.
I’m sorry but the average doctor is a half-wit compared to this layperson.
I rarely make generalizations, unless the preponderance of my person experiences warrants it. It is interesting that you ask this since you yourself are suggesting that doctors hold all non-doctors (the rest of humanity) in quite low regard.
