"Americans are less inclined than ever to view the medical system favorably. The widespread erosion of trust in medical authority mirrors a similar loss of trust in other institutions, but the damage suffered by the medical establishment’s reputation during the COVID era — largely, one might say, through wounds of its own making — seems to be on a wholly different level.
