It clearly proves that Chiropractors and Acupuncturists are safer than Doctors.
103-115k Licensed Chiropractors in the world and roughly half that for Acupuncturists so let’s say 173k total… at a credited 100-200 deaths total in the world over the past 100 years. let’s say an even split on which profession caused the deaths. that’s 50-100 deaths per profession over a 100 year period. so 1-2 deaths per year.
there are roughly 9 million Doctors worldwide. 1 in 10 patients are harmed by Licensed doctors each year with an average of 3 million Doctor malpractice related deaths per year worldwide and an average of about 250k in America per year. so let’s say a conservative number of deaths in 100 years of Doctors fucking up… and accounting for improvements in medical care laws… 250 million Doctor related deaths in a 100 year period.
boy… 1-2 deaths per year to Chiropractors and Acupuncturists fucking up is such a small number compared to the number of people who die each year due to Licensed Doctors fucking up.
but go ahead and keep pretending you actually have a fucking point and aren’t grasping at straws. I get it… you really wanted to be a doctor. you clearly have met all the prerequisites for being an American doctor. You ignore evidence that doesn’t support your claims, you have a stick shoved so far up your ass that it regularly hits the moon, and you have the fucking god complex to go with that stick up your ass.
but Numbers don’t lie unlike you. I sincerely hope you never actually manage to get a license to practice medicine… you are bound to kill a lot of people with your own arrogance and stupidity. but do let me know if you do get your license so I know what hospital group to avoid.

you use the exact same tactics as MAGA and Trump. Might I suggest you change your lifestyle because I really don’t want to read an article that says “newly licensed Doctor arrested for malpractice in transgender, black and latino patient related deaths” with your social media accounts linked to that doctor. I know it would make Trump love you… but that’s not a great look in the history books.

Bro, I dated a nurse who saw a girl die in the ER after an adjustment from a vertebral arterial dissection.
You pulled numbers out your ass and pretend they are authoritative. Here’s a fun number:
Actual medicine does things. Chiropractic does nothing at best, and can kill you at worst.
Also the random bullshit about trump and queerness does zero to advance your argument, and really just embarrasses you. I am cringing as a leftist trans person myself.

and yet you still ignore the facts that Doctors kill and harm more people.
here’s my source for that 1 in 10 patients harmed by doctors:
www.who.int/news-room/…/patient-safety
and here’s another article about doctors fucking up:

and the source for the doctors who were serial killers: I admit I missed Dr Hazzard cause i was switching apps to write everything down. – side note… notice how Dr Hazzard was a Hazard for your health.

as far as regulation of chiropractors in the USA it’s interesting how you claim that Chiropractors aren’t doctors or regulated in any way:
www.nccih.nih.gov/health/chiropractic-in-depth
www.bridgeport.edu/…/are-chiropractors-doctors/
and see: # 42 CFR § 410.21 - Limitations on services of a chiropractor.
here’s a dumbed down version for the USA:

and here’s a link to myths about chiropractors:

here’s a link to a history of chiropractors and the failure to discredit chiropractors written by a professor. the banner sucks for mobile devices but the sources he links at the bottom are especially fun:

please note the big kick in your personal ass:
Congress passed legislation in 1993 to include chiropractic in the U.S. Department of Defense healthcare system. Today Chiropractic services are available to active-duty personnel at more than 60 military bases in the United States, Germany and Japan.
Legislation to include chiropractic in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare system was passed in 1999.
ACP updated its guideline for the treatment of acute and chronic low back pain in 2017 to recommend first using noninvasive, nondrug treatments—including spinal manipulation—before resorting to drug therapies. A host of other organizations have since endorsed ACP’s guideline or issued similar recommendations.
for a bunch of dangerous hacks and quacks as you claim… there is a whole lot of regulations and licensing involved. it’s almost as if I didn’t pull numbers out of my ass or cherry pick shit like you did.
On behalf of all real leftist transgender people. I sincerely apologize… I forgot that even leftist transgender people can fall prey to the same trap of discarding facts and cherry picking statistics/studies as you have proven.
