My deepest hope in my heart of hearts is that the people who don’t believe in scientific evidence, (read: morons), are being fed this shit as part of a eugenics program designed to cull the dumb out of the herd. Therefore… Didn’t discourage these people in their beliefs! Eventually, they’ll fall victim to COVID, (or whatever the next pandemic might be), removing them from the gene pool, allowing Thanos’ plan to come to fruition, and affording us the chance to survive the nightmare our species is currently experiencing.

That’s not how vaccines work though. They rely on herd immunity to truly work.

We really need to come up with a better term than “herd immunity” to describe that phenomenon.

Of all the stupid things in this post, this isn’t one of them. ‘Cervical’ can refer to the cervix or to the cervical spine, basically the neck bones.

Get vaccinated and don’t go to chiropractors (at least not before going to a real doctor first).

Fixed that for you. There is no situation that going to a chiropractor would be a good idea. They are not medically trained. They are charlatans full stop.

There’s a chiropractor near me who also has a master’s degree in sports medicine. He has being on the medical team for several national teams at multiple Olympic Games. Local doctors refer patients to him and some of them go to him themselves.

I agree that the majority of chiropractors do little good, and sometimes a lot of bad, but certainly in this case he has been able to achieve results that doctors could not.

I have a theory that the “good chiropractors” are just people with physical therapy/sports medicine training that call themselves chiropractors to trick people into seeing someone that knows what they’re doing.

My mom got referred to one for some pain she was having and he (as far as I know) didn’t do any quack shit. She was given advice on better posture. some stretches to do, and some other reasonable stuff.

Your anecdote is nice. But chiropractic is not medicine. It is “alternative”, ie doesn’t actually help. Sports medicine? That’s a real thing that people go to actual college for. Chiropractic? They have their phony schools with their quack medicine and theories. It wasn’t that long ago that the inventor of chiropractic believed everything could be solved through magnets.

Don’t spread misinformation. At best, they provide false hope. And at worst they injure people.

Yeah, if you’re lucky the chiropractor won’t do chiropractic on you. That’s the best case scenario.
