But there are many more Pandits in comment section who as a habit downgrade doctors due to the jealousy. They are the ones who chant the mantra of free education

Sri Lankans are superb at passing exams and quizs but when it comes to applying knowledge into producing something, they fail.

@ KP, there are many books that have come out since the Covid19 ,some in paperback and some only on line, written by many Asians including at least three by Sri Lankans exploring the doctors and their scientific incompetence to remain in charge of medicine. Read those books first before making repeated same comments.

At Pathirana; How do you say those books are the goldstandard? Anyway jealousy driven people cannot think otherwise. Doctors' brains are not broken as yours that are broken due to Dopamine surge and instant gratification from phones
