HIV was/is an early hint at the computational complexity we face in understanding biology.

Not that we should consider in insurmountable nor ungrasp-able. But that we -- or parts of our society and professional institutions -- should lose some of our arrogance.

On the upside, that complexity also harbors enormous opportunity. Just, don't be simplistic about it an let your ignorance take you into disaster.

I'm always amazed at how many doctors I've encountered behave as if their knowledge is the extent of medical practice. I get it though, research is hard to stay on top of and isn't linear to results.

Granted, also, that there are lots of doctors who do follow research.

Most doctors are decision-tree driven, following the rules. If you get a truly insightful one, recommend the f out of him/her.
