Who in their right mind took Trump's advice the other day seriously when he told them, “Don’t take Tylenol”? “Fight like hell not to take it."
Hmmm, maybe the idiots who somehow believe he knows what he is talking about, much like they took him seriously when he said, "And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets in the lungs, and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it would be interesting to check that". Or when he said, "So, supposing we hit the body with a tremendous - whether it's ultraviolet or just very powerful light," "...supposing you brought the light inside of the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. And I think you said you're going to test that too. Sounds interesting," Pointing to his head, Mr. Trump went on: "I'm not a doctor. But I'm, like, a person that has a good you-know-what."
One thing he said which folks should have paid attention to back then and now is when he said, "I'm not a doctor..." He also is not a scientist, an obstetrician, a child neurologist, or a clinical pharmacologist. He does have a B.S. (Bachelor of Science in Economics) and he is full of BS, so there's that.
Anyway, wasn't this warning a recommendation from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Secretary of Health and Human Services. But, like Trump he is not a doctor or a scientist. He holds a Master of Laws (LLM) degree, so that's something -- not sure what about that is relevant to his making decisions about medication warnings though.
Feel free to discount anything I said here as being false equivalencies if that is what floats your boat.
A Master of Laws (M.L. or LL.M.; Latin: Magister Legum or Legum Magister) is a postgraduate academic degree, pursued by those either holding an undergraduate academic law degree or a professional law degree.
In many jurisdictions, the LL.M. is an advanced professional degree for those already admitted to legal practice.
Definition
To become a lawyer and practice law in most jurisdictions, a person must first obtain a law degree. In most common law countries, a Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) is required.[1][2] In the United States, a bachelor's degree followed by the Juris Doctor (J.D.) [a graduate school degree],[3] and passing an additional set of examinations (the Bar exam) is typically required to practice law.[4]
The LL.M. program is an advanced postgraduate law program. In Canada, an LL.B is required to enter an LL.M program; in the United States and Australia, a J.D. is required.[5][6] Specialized LL.M. programs have been introduced in many European countries. An LL.M. degree is typically a requirement for entry into research doctoral programs in law.
The most advanced degree programs in the law are the Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D. or J.S.D.),[7][8] the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D. or DPhil) or doctorat en droit (in France), Doktor der Rechtswissenschaften (Dr. iur.) (in Germany), the Doctor of Laws (LL.D.), and the Doctor of Civil Law (D.C.L.).[6]
Types of LL.M. degrees
Most universities offer only a small number of LL.M. programs although there is great variety over all global jurisdictions.
In Europe, LL.M. programs in European law are popular, often referred to as LL.M. Eur (Master of European Law). In the Netherlands, the title used is Meester in de Rechten (mr.) as well as in Flanders (Belgium), by those who studied Dutch or Belgian law respectively.
Some LL.M. programs, particularly in the United States and China, focus on teaching foreign lawyers the basic legal principles of the host country.
The length of time to study for an LL.M. program depends on the mode of study. Most full-time on-campus courses take one academic year to complete. Other students may complete their LL.M. program on a part-time basis over multiple years, and courses are increasingly available online. Part-time online courses can take between two and five years to complete.
Requirements
LL.M. programs are usually only open to those students who have first obtained a degree in law, typically an LL.B. or J.D. Very few programs allow exceptions to this. Full-time LL.M. programs vary in their graduation requirements but most require students to write a thesis. Some programs are somewhat research oriented with less classroom time, while others require students to take a set number of classes.
LL.M. degrees are often earned by students wishing to develop more concentrated expertise in a particular area of law. Pursuing an LL.M. degree may also allow law students to build a professional network by strengthening their connections among peers. What does all this have to do with my post?
