    Doctor Mike lost any respect I had for him after his behaviour during the pandemic. He is a content creator far above being an actual medical professional.

      How so?

        From wiki:

        On November 12, 2020,[20] for his 31st birthday, Varshavski traveled to Miami to attend a beach party that was also attended by a number of other people without masks, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Footage of the event was posted on Instagram and went viral, particularly on Reddit.[21] On November 18, Varshavski apologized for his actions in a YouTube video,[22] saying he “messed up” and he needed “to do better”.[23] His attendance of the party was criticized by medical professionals. Bioethicist Arthur Caplan, director of the division of medical ethics at NYU Langone Health, said Varshavski “fails completely in being an appropriate role model and he should be called out, and he deserves even more criticism than he’s getting so far.”[23]
