That’s not what I said. There’s no need to risk death to drive to the doctor. There’s also no reason to risk death by getting ripped off or getting substandard care from a doctor of questionable ethics and ability. It’s pretty simple - you see an online provider in your state or a state with reciprocity. I used to be familiar with medical frauds. Doctors who “see” 600 patients a day, etc. Online medicine is pretty bullshitty to begin with, but kneecapping the primary controls that we have to address fraud and abuse is not progress. Anything that undermines trust in the name of supposed convenience is a net negative.
