And Larry Nassar is also unknown?

I just mention that one because his was a particularly egregious case. Do you need me to find for you some other well-publicized examples of physicians assaulting people?

I'm not suspicious of medical science. I'm suspicious of individual humans, who by and large I do not trust for the above reasons.
