Work has been around preventing these diseases, and that is really becoming significantly harder to do now.
I think it works when you have the ability and the time to be able to spend in the room with these patients. And I think that one of the things, there's certainly a population of parents, they are bought, sold, and opposed at a level that we're not going to convince them.

They're the parents who come in with, I've done my research, and in fact, will try to convince us to do research in the same thread. But you've got this huge group of folks that are They're questioning whether what they've seen and heard is true. And as a parent, you can understand that you don't want to make mistakes with your kid. You don't want to mess up.

And so a big piece of this conversation for us, I think, is really understanding. finding a way to pull them back from that questioning of things that really are coming from places that are not rooted in science. I mean, a lot of the influencers out there do not have medical degrees, did not go to medical school, have never worked in the scientific field.

And as Dr. Hotez said, there's not even evidence that half of the things they're discussing would work. I mean, vitamin C is not going to health and immune system that's been completely decimated by an illness like measles or influenza, for example. And so it's kind of our job to give that education. I think what we are dealing with is I get 10 or 15 minutes in a room

And they are getting hours and hours and hours of this outside of my clinic exam room in all kinds of different forms. And I will say that we're working really hard to teach our physicians how to have a little bit better social media presence. This is not something we're taught in medical school. You do a great job being out there. Dr. Hotez does.

And I think it's so refreshing to have your voices out there supporting what we're doing you know, working towards, but a majority of us are just not trained to do that. We don't have the ability to be on social media hours and hours and hours a day the way some of the influencers do. And so I certainly believe that the trust our patients have in us

can convince many of them who are just kind of on the ledge or not sure or questioning. But I fear that there is enough people who've crossed over into the completely opposed side and how we get them back and how we get that trust established again.
