@RickiTarr The latest advances in emergency treatment, that I see/read about/assess in my job, they're amazing. Absolutely incredible. I wish everyone could benefit from the kind of perspective I get.

But I guess some people would still be sniffy about it. Seems to me there's quite a lot of othering, if not outright racism, in these views of the 'traditional medicine' of non-white peoples. This idea of 'they're in touch with nature whilst we work with science' has a lot of 'noble savage' about it. It really isn't okay.

(Especially as so much modern medicine and treatment comes from scientists and doctors of colour in other parts of the world!)
