But we need to criminalize ANY other professions who practices medicine without a license. They work in their respective fields and that is where they should stay.

Politicians and medicine
Politicians have the right and duty to take all the information into consideration. Some doctors are also politicians. I do agree that politicians should not make access to certain medicines or procedures mandatory. Think about what happened when bone marrow transplants were required for women with breast cancer. Many women died. Medical decisions need to be made by doctors.

Many women died. Medical decisions need to be made by doctors. Cuomo, for all his faults (and they are many- abuse of women probably, arrogance, etc. ), saved thousands if not a million lives. He used the advice of doctors. As doctors, we don't always balance everything. "First do no harm" is great in medicine, but this approach may not work for society in general when we don't take all factors into consideration. We are obligated to put the patient that we see first, while a politician also has to think about the broader effects. I don't agree with many of the decisions, but I'm not sure doctors would do better.
