Telling doctors to not randomly experiment on their patients outside of a controlled studies seems perfectly reasonable. Most medical groups tend to view uncontrolled human experimentation as very unethical and have for a long time.
waiting for a properly run study will cost lived especially when there are corporate and political interests controlling these tests.
it would have been easy to run dozens of prophylactic studies while this virus was running rampant. same for testing the dozens of clinical sourced protocols. instead the medical testing establishment shutdown and ignore all clinical protocols that were successful used, and put the message out so that medical journals, big tech, pharmacy boards, hospitals, suppressed more discussion and application of these protocols.
Most doctors don't bother treating a patient with anything other than standard care procedures.
Why--I honesty believe most don't care enough to look beyond the usual treatment.
8 minutes per patient, collect the most money from the out of the patient, and insurance company. Do not say or do anything than might bring a lawsuit. Write a script, or recommend a Nettie Pot. (I still think about a guy here whom paid $450 out of packet for a sinus infection, and was told to buy a nettie pot. Nothing wrong with not doing anything though. It was the price of the office visit.) Determine if you can get the patent in for another pricey office visit. Repeat.
Go back to writing that vanity novel, or checking the stock market. (This has been my experience. They have about 50 drugs they commonly use, and when things get complicated, they refer, or claim it might be psychosomatic?)
There's always a risk of a lawsuit too.
Then there are doctors whom sometimes prescribe off label for a condition, or honestly try to keep current. I appreciate those doctors.
I do believe doctors use too many medications off-label although I acknowledge that FDA on-label approval can be a large barrier.
