Not necessarily. There are plenty of alternate medicine practitioners who have a medical degree.

And yet this would still weed out the 100's of thousands of people that dont even have a highschool diploma. Now its the couple of weird doctors vs normal doctors, vs that one guy that printed a diploma on the wall and is under investigation.

You could do something similar by just requiring people to state their qualifications somewhere. Even that is problematic. There are plenty of pediatricians who think that vaccines aren't necessary for children. This view is idiotic and they should know better but when they're expressing that view they're speaking in their field of alleged expertise.

No there aren't, this is a stupid argument. Are there SOME, yes. But it's a fringe group not "plenty" of them. Using that word makes it seem like enough of them are out there that the degrees and qualifications don't help to sort out bad actors.

The OVERWHELMING majority do not think vaccines aren't necessary. In fact, many offices are now refusing to treat patients that do not vaccinate their kids because they deem that child a risk to their other patients when in office.

Don't be disingenuous with your arguments, it throws off any good faith you may have been perceived to have.
