We are BIOPSYCHOSOCIAL beings. That means that there is a close relationship between those three elements. That is beyond discussion.
But it has nothing to do with the "credulity" that prevails today. People want to believe even though all the evidence shows that this is not correct. This happens in any field of life. If it were different we would have been in a Bitcoin-only world a long time ago.
In health matters it is no different. I have 25 years of experience as a doctor and I have seen almost everything. For example, where I live it is said that everyone is a doctor and director of baseball teams.
I have had patients to whom I have given specific instructions and when I evaluate them again they have not improved, worried, thinking that my instructions have not been correct, I ask them how they did the treatment and it turns out that I did not do anything of what I told them, they followed the instructions of an aunt or a grandmother or a neighbor. INCREDIBLE.
On one occasion I was working in Venezuela and a person came with a jar of urine and asked:
"Do Cubans who read urine work here?"
Thinking he was wrong, I told him that we don't read urine here, we give you an indication and you take the urine to the laboratory and they analyze it.
The person told me:
"No, I'm looking for Cubans who read urine."
When I asked locals about the matter, they told me:
"Yes, on the corner of the main street there are some Cubans to whom you take a jar of urine and for 5 thousand bolivars (in 2006) they read your urine and tell you what you have."
Speechless. PEOPLE BELIEVE WHAT THEY WANT TO BELIEVE. AND THERE IS NO WORSE BLIND PERSON THAN THE ONE WHO DOESN'T WANT TO SEE
