It's basically a converse take to the "You're not wrong, you're just an asshole" meme.

> As the COVID-19 pandemic was getting underway in early 2020, doctors in Wuhan, China, began to report that many patients hospitalized with the disease had cardiac injuries. Heart attacks were frequent, especially in patients with underlying risk factors, and there were numerous cases of myocarditis, which occurs when the heart’s muscle layers become inflamed. Roughly a quarter of patients with severe COVID-19 had elevated blood levels of troponin, a protein marker for cardiac damage.
Still was dismissive of covid having any effect on cardiovascular. But you can only learn so much in 60 minutes over 3 months right?
"Doctors report many patients [...]" framing is true of all sorts of nonsense, all the time (including about covid! Hydroxychloroquine was being boosted by the same kind of anecdotal evidence). That's... just not how medicine works. How do you know which anecdotes are nonsense and which are correct? You do the science. And they did. But not in time for a lot of people, and yes, that's awful.
