After a day that i thought of a selulitis diagnosis i made last week, which i happen to recall today and realized i was also biased i come upon this lecture.when i thought about the case i realized i made a lucky call and i was right .yet i realized how much i was prone to mistakes which changed my thinking process .then i see this... This video put things clear before i had to spend few hours trying to map out the ways i can make bad calls. She is great .thanks a lot 🎉

What you're saying is helpful and interesting, but it is made hard to follow by 1) the speed of your speech and 2) not finishing your sentences and sidelining yourself. Yes, it helps to convey passion, but it makes it hard to pick up on the actual message. And when things get too tough, you know Fast Brain just gives up.

Too much information in too little time and she spoke too fast too

Those are not objective bias tests. The concept of implicit bias is one that is poorly articulated in the literature and also nearly impossible to treat if it does in fact exist. You endanger The credibility of your entire talk by bringing up something so poorly demonstrated.

Apparently, you never lost someone because of a heartless, judgemental, crap of a doctor. Your attitude towards the loss of innocent patients is horrific. My Mom was a generally healthy 65 year old woman who died because the E.R. doctor discharged her even when she was so weak she had to use a wheel chair, even after she was unresponsive, and had a heartrate of over 140 the whole time. He didnt even give her IV fluids after knowing she had been vomiting for 2 days, had 9 nine flags on her urine lab work and 8 flags on her blood labs. She died 22 minutes after being discharged. You make it sound like it's no big deal that only 1.7% of medical malpractice cases are from E.R. cases, and that 1.7% is still loved ones lost to the negligence of crappy doctors who judge people instead of treating them.
