Summary

This quote suggests that the highly revered field of modern medicine is flawed, similar to the famous leaning Tower of Pisa. It implies that there are certain imperfections and imbalances within the medical system that prevent it from being entirely reliable or infallible. Just as the tower's tilted structure catches our attention, the quote implies that there are noticeable vulnerabilities within the medical establishment that need to be acknowledged and addressed.

I disagree. It is a very disquieting and disgusting symptom.
