Partly right.
Nobody ever got sick from modern medicine before modern medicine.
People in current times who stay away from modern medicine are generally the healthiest, and people with "incurable" diseases get cured on their own - when they stay away from doctor quacks and their modern medical treatments - and seek their own remedies, i.e. very simply, the best ways to get and stay healthy.
