RE: How Steemit can save millions of lives?

in #steemit7 years ago

I just became sick to my stomach.
The Chemo thing? REALLY?!

My mom just got done with Chemo. She HAD breast cancer! Luckily it's gone now. But she is still dealing with that.
I really hope that it's somehow not true. Because thats terrifying. I've been suspecting that doctors have been doing similar things LIke being affiliates for certain drug companies so they can make extra money by referring people to those drugs.

It really makes you not want to trust these people.

I'm so grateful for steemit though. It allows us to be more open and transparent. Wonderful post!

Sort:  

As I said in the article, it isn't true. Though people in the science community do often deliberately alter results and make bias decisions to be published and money etc, but the same can be said in every industry in the entire world. For the most part, that simply isn't the case.

If you think about it, it's far more in a doctor's interest to release a huge one-time miracle drug. That doctor would earn billions on that alone. The idea that they're suppressing the truth to earn more money just doesn't match up with reality

Yes :( We've seen that so many times! I know money is a huge motivator in life, But sometimes I don't understand how people can feel okay publishing lies so knowing they aren't doing the right thing.
