We won't get into vaccines because there's a lot of difference opinion on that.
The point I was making is that you take some things like toothbrushing and hand washing and so on and the norms.
Of course, almost everybody should do that.
And the real question is not who are the rare people who should.
It's who are the rare people who maybe should.
Great point.
Okay.
Now, let's take taking a statin.
an SGLT2 inhibitor, a GLP-1 agonist, an antihypertensive drug that's known to be very mild and been studied for a very long time.
And I think we are at the point where we should be starting to think about flipping the question from who should get it to who should it.
I think there's multiple things embedded in what you're asking.
I think one is, do we make recommendations for the few or the many?
Right.
And the answer is sometimes we erroneously, I think, make them for the few rather than the many and we should flip that.
I think another thing is what do we really know about these particular things you're talking about, carbohydrate, saturated fats, and that's a whole different can of worms.
And then I think there's this notion, this question of individual effects.
And that is something my group and I are very interested in and we write a lot about.
I think there's an implicit assumption that we're all very different and, you know, the right diet for you is not the same as the right diet for me.
And while I think that's intuitively very appealing idea, and there's almost certainly some truth in it,
It's based on a lot of assumption.
