Truth still matters in this world. There are anomalies in what is being reported.

Are people so used to being lied to that they no longer give a crap about what is true?

It is nice to see someone with such an unwavering devotion to the truth. You want the truth? Maybe you cant handle the truth.

The many resources, page after page on google, say that she earned an MD from Emory University School of Medicine in 2012.

When someone told you that she wasn’t an MD, you didn't ask ANY questions?

How come when Elmhurst got those 5 ventilators, they were sitting in the hall. No one running to get one. No doctors screaming: "Can you finish your FREAKIN ASININE video??? MY PATIENT NEEDS THAT VENTILATOR!!!!"

There was not 1 person in the hall of this overwhelmed, overcrowded, people dying hospital in DIRE NEED of this equipment. Doctors should have been FIGHTING over the ventilators. Yet ... empty hallway. No noise. Silent.

No one has denied that people aren't sick. There are questions, however, about what is being reported by the ONE STORY of the ONE HOSPITAL.

Critical thinking means just that ... you actually THINK about what you are being told.

Belief? Well, that's religion, and some people worship the media, believe every story that they are told.

Cuomo has also admitted that NY HAS ENOUGH VENTILATORS. NY is stockpiling them. Hospitals just need to ask.
https://nypost.com/2020/03/27/corona...-it-overblown/
“Yes they’re in a stockpile because that’s where they’re supposed to be because we don’t need them yet. We need them for the apex. The apex isn’t here so we’re gathering them in the stockpile so when we need them they will be there,” Cuomo said.
This post is a prime example of a lack of critical thinking and an insistence on being ignorant.

Because that poster insists on being ignorant. That poster and the OP are simply trying to cast doubt on the seriousness of the situation.

Go to her linked in page. She doesn't use her MD as a credential. Know any doctors that DON'T have their MD attached to their name?

Look at her job title. She is NOT a physician. She is a "site director."

Looking at her own info posted by herself.

Lokk at the USNews page:

Certifications & Licensure


NY State Medical License
Active through 2018


Huh. Active till 2018. Not active after.

Read your own freaking pages.

Close your eyes while your freedoms are taken away.

Ignorance is bred in those who refuse to ask questions. Because they never EVER learn a damn thing.

Be offended by those who wish to learn. We really don't care.

Clearly you’re speaking about yourself because you didn’t ask questions about the same video you want others to accept as true. Be offended because I asked the questions. Remain in your ignorance.

A few things.

The chairman of my anesthesia department is the Site Director. He is an MD, he is licensed, and he practices, but yet, still the Site Director. In corporate medicine, the giant EM, Anesthesia, Radiology groups, cover many hospitals. Each hospital has a chairman, which they call the Site Director.

In her Linkedin page, she claims to be an Emergency Medicine Physician. It is illegal to impersonate a physician. She could be brought up on fraud charges if she is lying on her very public linkedin page.

You said she is not even an MD. You don’t have to be licensed to be an MD. If you have a Medical Doctor degree, you are an MD.

But the above doesn’t matter because I found her license number and looked it up on the NY official website. Her license is good through 11/20. Clearly, US News and World Report needs to update their records.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/colleen-smith-338b297a/

Her Linked in page does not just say "site director". It says:

Quote:
Associate Program Director, Emergency Medicine Residency
Jul 2018 – Present

Emergency Medicine Physician
Jun 2017 - Present
So maybe you should read your own links.

Just to support your case: my wife is a surgeon, and her residency program director was also the Department Chair and a practicing physician. "Residency Program Director" was just an additional administrative duty.
