Isn’t the inflation percentage compared to last months percentage? IE: If last month food prices went up 5% and this month food prices went up 5% then they claim food inflation is at 0%? I may be misremembering.

Good news everyone, the rate at which you are getting crushed is down!

Oh good! So we're being crushed less?

Well, no, course not.

So we're still being crushed just as much as before?

No, more actually! But the rate at which it's increasing didn't go up.

...This is good news?

About time. Its honestly ridiculous how we have to gatekeep medical care behind ludicrous expensive tuition and extreme long hours just to get the chance to tell people "maybe it's just all in your head? I'll prescribe you some antibiotics just in case". Hopefully this will finally bring the waiting time down for patients

being a dr is very very similar to being a bad internet poster - just Google things and then tell your patients the results of that search

Ideally, we'll just get a conveyor belt with seats on them, like one of those haunted house ride at Disney. Patients can just line up and grab a seat then it will be able to move through the clinic/hospital where the doctor can give them a prompt and quick assessment then they'll get a print out to take to a pharmacy at the end of the ride.

It'll vastly boost the patient intake and release rate meaning there will be whole lot more billings done. That will vastly increase the profit to an insane never seen high which is great for stockholders!

It’s “super” at telling the “core” narrative that a bunch of “economists” want to push.

IE, if we cook the numbers hard enough, inflation is down. So turn the money hose back on. Pretty please!
