There are many barriers that disallow comrades from getting unbiased input from a medical professional, and I think this comm could provide that access. I have seen some thoroughly uninformed medical takes here, and this could serve as a place for people who want research-backed answers to their medical questions. Would also be a place to post advancements in medicine, changes in medical policy, etc

I know there is already /c/drugs but that is primarily aimed at recreational use and harm reduction.

Unsure if we would be required to label the comm “This is not medical advice”, while still providing it.

This is a great idea but I feel like we need a way to make sure the advice is legit without risking doxxing ourselves. Otherwise, advice might be posted that’s harmful or something. Maybe I’m worrying too much about that.

Nah I was thinking the same thing, but I honestly don’t see a problem with sending admins my credentials.
