WHY? Give Up Tele-Medicine!

Why This Doctor Gave Up Telemedicine

During the pandemic, I engaged in telemedicine with my patients out of necessity.  This platform was already destined to become part of the medical landscape even prior to the pandemic.  COVID-19 accelerated the process.  The appeal is obvious.  Patients can have medical visits from their own homes without driving to the office, parking, checking in, finding their way to the office, biding time in the waiting room and then driving out afterwards.  And patients could consult physicians from far distances, even across state lines.  Most of the time invested in traditional office visits occurs before and after the actual visits.  So much time wasted! Indeed, telemedicine has answered the prayers of time management enthusiasts.

Russia’s Synthetic Drug Epidemic

The attached photo and video was passed on to us from an anonymous rogue DEA agent. Although in Russian, one can see a visual depiction of Krokodil’s effects.

Graphic image warning!

The drug that (literally) eats junkies

Assessment

Apparently the life expectancy of users of the drug is 2-3 years. We would not be surprised to see it show up in the USA very soon

From YouTube: Thiel is hailed as one of the most successful investors in the world. After co-founding PayPal, he went on to co-found Palantir Technologies and invest in Facebook, where he still serves on the board.

In “Zero to One,” he emphasizes the need for entrepreneurs to grasp for the ideas that nobody else has in order to truly innovate.
