The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

I think the last one was done in 1969.

I mean, that's a barbaric, basically putting an ice pick through the eye.

eye socket and scrambling the frontal lobe of the brain.

OBGYNs wouldn't be washing their hands before they delivered a baby because we didn't have microbial signs until, you know, late 1800s, turn of the 19th century or 20th century.

So I think...

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

the very premise of challenging the status quo is what sometimes is attacked.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

It's like, how dare you ask the question?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

How dare you ask the question?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

The vaccines are settled, autism is settled.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

And just to broach the question, but we had a fascinating, and this happens with a lot of my guests, fascinating conversation at lunch today, because you got here and we sat down for lunch and you talked about medical groupthink and medical dogma.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

And what I liked is you alleviated the blame from the individual physician, because you talked about how the majority of people, and I think, you know, myself included, when I wanted to study human biology, and I think nearly every physician on the planet, begins with the premise of, I want to help people.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Yeah.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Right?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

I want to make a difference.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Yes.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

And talk a little bit about that for people that haven't gone through the medical system, about the grind and the dogma and how you emerged from this system, and now you're a part of this collective.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Well, I will say, Gary, the young people that want to go into healthcare are beautiful people.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

They're doing it out of a sense of altruism, that there's something larger than ourselves, that contributing to the well-being of others is greater than any self-interest.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

It's a beautiful light that you see shining in a high school student that says, you know, I think I might want to be a nurse.

They're different from their peers.
