We have known for year that it is more profitable to treat patients than it is to cure them. It's pretty messed up to take the government handout of 30,000 to place someone on a ventilator when a 5 dollar parasite drug could save their life.
The real parasite has only been expelled 109 times.
Doctors no longer swear a Hippocratic oath, and haven't in many years. It's just a meme you see on TV now.
Medical associations got rid of that practice long ago, after methodically trashing and undermining it as "no longer adequate" and such.
If they still swore that oath, they would have to break it all the time, to terminate the lives of unborn children, cut into and distort the human body for cosmetic purposes, provide young women with the daily means to chemically render themselves barren, mutilate healthy genitals to replace them with gaping wounds, or for any number of other routine "medical" activities performed today.
"Do no harm" has not been observed in decades, in spirit or practice.
