I usually don’t go for parody, but this is delicious. Next do primary care doctors whose idols are “evidence based medicine” and trusted authorities rather than bayesian reasoning based on all available evidence, including clinical anecdotes and models of how society’s political and economic institutions are operating (corrupted?), and a constantly updated weighting of evidence according to its reliability.
People are looking at me funny. I think I'm actually cackling! "Masking in-utero prior to delivery would be ideal." got me started. And that ending, oh my! Subscribing to your substack is like a lifeline of sanity in a clown show shit storm. Can't wait for the interview with Dr. Tweetashish NoobJha. Some say, his 140 and 280 dissertations might have been plagiarized. Yet his rebuking, I mean, regurgitating trash science made him the Czar of Clown Show World. Much to the chagrine of Sideshow Bob who was thought to be a (large) shoe-in.
I never thought I would appreciate anything as much as the rational, insightful analysis of actual data in your "normal"essays. However, these satirical pieces have me in stitches. Maybe I should have masked up before reading. My only concern is the number of people who might read the article and be absolutely convinced that Dr. Jenkins is a genius and should replace Dr. Fauci when he retires.
“fact, doing the opposite of what Trump says is how I made most of my decisions. I like to intersperse my scientific commentary with political commentary, which is the hallmark of great policy making.” …. BRILLIANT.
OMG awesome. Thanks for the laugh as I sit here in an Assisted Living in Maryland with no recent cases but requires masking and temperature screening because of “High Community Transmission Rates.”
Dr Prasad has become a VERY frustrated person to create these parodies. We see evidence arriving daily that is shocking our sensibilities about all the wrong paths we have taken. The truth is arriving in the public, slowly but steadily. My guess is that many are really becoming uncomfortable.
I thoroughly enjoyed this way more than I should have - I literally laughed out loud and my teens both gave me a look like I was losing my mind!😂🤣Thank you so much for this, Dr. Prasad! Always love everything you publish here and am honored to be able to be a supporter! You should have VP merch - I would be the first to purchase a shirt or hat or bumper sticker to support you!

Love love love - thank you for making me laugh so I can take a break from ranting/crying
Truth.

Great stuff, keep it up.
The last line is like that perfect after-credit scene in some Marvel movies. "PhD from the Wuhan Institute" ... lmao

It took me a minute to realize this was parody.
Thank you I really needed the laugh. Just recovered from being a Covid sinner over here and this took the cake 🤣
Another excellent guest author.
When are you scheduling your stand-up tour?
This ranks high in the column for things that make me laugh! Thanks!
I come here for reassurance of my sanity. Today I got giggles too!
