Dr Phil and Dr Oz Should NOT be Trusted

television doctors are quacks who could have anticipated now I will clarify I am NOT an expert on any of this but neither are these guys so obviously there are medical professionals all around the world trying to do their best to figure out you know how we deal with this illness how we can even begin to start going back to some semblance of normal I think everybody's got their own professionals but in the United States it is dr. pouchy the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases you know what one might call an expert in the field and he's been pretty vocal in his caution towards you know dialing back safety precautions and social distancing rules because you know global pandemic and all that but not everyone is as sure as the world's premier medical community so you might be wondering what's the answer what do we do and we just can't exercise a little bit of self-restraint and stay away from other people well it's okay because we've consulted someone even more in the know they've consulted dr. Phil we have people dying 45,000 people a year die from automobile accidents 480,000 from cigarettes 360,000 here from swimming pools but we don't shut the country down for that but yet we're doing it for this it's gonna be okay everybody we can go back to normal because like so many people dying in car accidents and drowning and from smoking and we don't shut anything down for those deaths so why would a highly contagious illness be any different this was the equivalent of asking somebody with outdated first-aid training to perform a surgery no one's gonna argue that these situations are rough on everybody we're all dealing with anxiety and stress and who knows what else and we obviously have to be thinking forward to the future about how we can start working things back to normal figuring out how to continue trying to keep people as safe as possible while also making sure that we're prioritizing people having access to food and the food production and shelter and medical supplies and access to medical care but Phil you gotta be taking into account the fact that a lot of those negative feelings and feelings of anxiety are coming from the disease itself people worried about getting it worried about dying worried about passing it on to a loved one afraid of getting it and ending up in a hospital and then really not being able to provide for your family at all we have health care professionals begging us to do our part because they are overrun and overworked and some people herb said that they can't go down to the local hooters and pretend they're there for the chicken wings and I get why Laura here was so on board with all of his horrible analogies and examples because she seems to be quite the expert herself we don't have a vaccine for HIV and life did go on look I'm gonna be honest here I don't know what Laura does in public or how she thinks HIV is transmitted to compare it to the Rona but I'm very concerned also the way he's saying lock down he's making it sound like people literally can't go everywhere you can go out while being mindful you can get your groceries when you need a lot of places have curbside pickup for a variety of different things you can order takeout delivery and we're incredibly privileged to be live during the internet age when you can contact people better than ever I get that you can't be in the same room with people but we have access to countless methods of communication without having to be on the same continent as someone else and on top of that we have access to the entire world library of entertainment essentially anything that has ever been made is available to you in the comfort of your own home obviously there are people in a horrible home situations and that's a tragedy and it's an entirely other different situation that needs to be addressed so we think we're protecting people's lives by keeping them locked up you keep them locked up long enough there's a paradoxical effect you actually destroy more lives than you do by letting them go out and protect themselves and opt into their lives to fight for what they believe in okay what are you even trying to suggest here this is a virus not an enemy that you can fight by yelling at it I get that people want answers about when they can get back to work and what can happen but you know just minimize your trips stay away from people and if you're outside listen to your local officials different laces are gonna have different regulations depending on my population density how many people are already infected in that area how like severely they have to act to start like lowering those numbers and we're all just doing the best we can and it sucks it absolutely sucks people are losing the jobs people are getting sick while alone but our government should be helping those people right now this is the second economy collapsing situation that's happened another 15 years and this time we have the added benefit of a global illness opening things up faster isn't gonna help with all the people working those customer-facing jobs just start getting super sick because other people aren't minding distancing rules or going out when they're carrying the illness we're not gonna make anything better if hospitals and health care workers can't actually handle the influx of people that end up getting sick eventually things will start to reopen and hopefully by then we'll be in a better position to deal with things and our more at-risk people will just do the best they can to stay inside and people will do the best to help them cuz it's all just about flattening that curve but some people might I add a lot of people that fall under the demographic of those most likely to be affected including dr. Phil who is 69 years old are being really wishy-washy about the whole thing most likely because they're falling under that misguided belief that like this could never happen to me it can happen to you so back to dr. Phil as I've mentioned numerous times before he is not actually a doctor and he Lisa is definitely not that kind of doctor he has a PhD but he's not currently licensed in psychology and it's been that way for a very long time he hasn't had a license to practice that since I graduated medical school oh and again not that kind of doctor he doesn't really have any business weighing in on this situation beyond just you know maybe talking about increasing mental health initiatives for people that are in lockdown I think that they had him on mostly to talk about the mental effects of the quarantine which ya can and will mess people up but he flipped it into an area that he has absolutely no business talking about and no knowledge and no expertise because he has no expertise so why'd the Frank are we asking for his advice on national television and he tried to run it back on one of his live streams yesterday so let's so let's take a look at some of these clarifications yeah last night I said we as a society have chosen to live with certain controllable deadly risk every day and I refer to them as numbers of deaths that we apparently find acceptable because we do little or nothing about them are you stupid how are you even comparing those situations to this carbon pool deaths are not contagious and yes we do we are constantly coming up with new methods of making cars safer of making travel safer people can't drive without taking a test and I'm pretty sure it's documented that you should always be watching people in pool situations because drowning is highly likely and here he's really trying to stress the fact that we need to be mindful of the mental health issues which if that is how he had worded it on the Laura Ingraham show people wouldn't be angry about it but that's not how he worded it people start having enough problems in lockdown that it will actually create more destruction and actually more death across time then the actual virus will itself we need resources for those in horrible home situations we need resources for the mentally unwell we need resources for those who are struggling to eat these are things we need resources for all the time now we're just dealing with it way more than we normally are and I don't think sending people back out in full force is the answer because most people seem more concerned about when they're eating in the next haircuts you also keep telling people to ignore the example you gave because you know they made you sound like an idiot and just to focus on the message so let's take another listen at that message 45,000 people a year die from automobile accidents we don't shut the country down for that but yet we're doing it for this loud and clear asshat if anything we're helping feed two birds with one scone less cars on the road less auto accidents less chance of transmission win-win dummy now as I mentioned I've had issues with dr. Phil for ever I think I talked to built them a little bit in this video or maybe a lot of it in this video that I'll have linked up here it's quite old at this point but you know it gives you an idea I'm pretty sure we're well aware that he mostly just exploits kids for cash on his show he basically just brings anybody on is looking for their 15 minutes and and uses them for views and this really no surprise he's made a bunch of unfounded claims about video games he's been sued numerous times and tried to help a woman who was worried about her five-year-old son being gay by telling her to stop letting him play with girly toys for a long time most of the stories on a show are either fake or highly exaggerated because it's for television and clearly have more to do with theatrics than genuine help why people think he's more reliable than Maury or any other daytime host like this is beyond me but thankfully some of his fan base is finally seeing him for the quack that he is it's shocking that it took a global pandemic for people to realize that maybe we shouldn't be listening to dr. Phil who's not a doctor but better late than never in fact my favorite thing of all time has been the swarm of people saying specifically that they're removing him from their DVR which I just find so funny I always forget that you know people still use satellite and cable and the DVRs are a thing great that they're doing it but it just seemed like funny that that was like the ongoing thing I kept seeing I love that people cared about dr. Phil so much that they had like every episode set to tape but dr. Phil is not alone Oprah's resident pseudo-scientists for profit dr. oz also got in on the situation and said these very insightful things about getting kids back to school first we need our mojo back let's start with things that are really critical to the nation where we think we might build open without getting into a lot of trouble I tell you schools are a very appetizing opportunity advertising opportunity appetizing why that word I just saw a nice piece in The Lancet arguing that the opening of schools may only cost us two or three percent in terms of total mortality these stats are based on a projected study realistically we don't know how serious things could get if kids were just still in school so even though this wasn't implying two to three percent of the entire population and just two to three percent higher and I think it was actually two to four percent higher than what the final death toll would be so it's in a thousands not the millions still not a cool thing to say so flippantly but yeah dr. oz is basically just as bad as our girl Gwyneth he's promoted shitty fat burners he claimed required no exercise or proper diet to work and the clinical trials prove that that was a lie and had never actually been corroborated he also got in [ __ ] for promoting metabolism boosters and who could forget the classic seven-day grapefruit detox we love it when doctors promote detoxes he's lied about profiting from products he recommends on his show he was called out by dentists for his at home teeth whitening practice which involved lemon juice and baking powder and promoted home cold remedies which he said could take up to three weeks to work which is you know when a cold would normally work its way out bringing people on you claim that could cure homosexuality so the GMOs were a cause of autism so back to his stupid comment he's shooting non-apology yesterday trying to imply that it was us that didn't understand him I've realized my comments and risks around opening schools have confused and upset people we know for many kids schools a place of secure nutrition and learning that is missing right now I'm pretty sure no one has confused you turnip no one's going to argue that school is beneficial place for a lot of children but you have no business making these statements when you aren't an expert in this field this is what it looks like when you start reopening things and people don't take it seriously this is like a scene out of Jaws if you want them to go back to school so they can feel safe I don't know about you but I don't think I'd feel safe in a school environment sitting in a classroom trapped with a bunch of people with a recycled air and a bunch of dumb kids who are definitely gonna cough on things because they think it's funny because kids are dumb so are adults I saw adults doing this to people suck I get that a lot of kids rely on school for food but do you realize how messed up that even is as a concept children shouldn't be going hungry in the United States I get that it's worse in a lot of situations now because a lot of people are losing their jobs but again this is just an overall societal failure at its peak so I think it's overall just time to stop listening to these people but dr. title is misleading especially when it comes to Phil even though Oz is medically trained he's a heart surgeon he doesn't specialize in these diet areas that he's often talking about he doesn't specialize in virus and transmission of illnesses and he's just as if not more dangerous than people like Gwyneth Paltrow because of the platform he's been provided and the fact that he does have medical training and speaking of which let's talk about the Overlord that helped create these beasts Oprah is the main reason why eyes and Phil are in the positions that they currently are she's featured them on her network is not remotely done or due diligence on them for what I can only imagine has to do with massive financial reasons and I realized that everybody loves Oprah but until she vocally separates herself from these two assets she just can't be trusted Oprah your network Empire ain't worth [ __ ] if this is gonna be your legacy and that's really it sucks we all want things to get back to normal a lot of us are in significantly better positions than other people's we're all angry and frustrated at the way things are but again I'm also not an expert I don't have all the answers but I do know that these guys aren't it so thank you all so much for watching I hope you're all having a fantastic day and we'll catch you all later you
