        Exactly. I never said anything about the layperson. Trained medicals on the other hand should be required to update their knowledge.

      The non-medically trained person? They should not! The medically trained person on the other hand, should question and update their training, shouldn’t they?

        So a person should take the entire course of antibiotics that are prescribed to them. I guess I’m confused about why you said to the person who said you should take your entire course of antibiotics and not stop because of feelings is making false assumptions.
