This should be analyzed from two aspects: the elderly and the liar:
First of all, from the perspective of the elderly themselves, the reason why they are cheated is often because of ignorance and greed; Or the result of vanity and conformity.
First, lack of basic common sense and judgment. What should I do after I get sick? The correct way is to go to a regular hospital for treatment and choose various drugs under the guidance of a doctor. However, many elderly people do not do this. They often go to small hospitals to find so-called "experts" or "famous doctors" from other places for treatment. Because they think that "experts" or "famous doctors" in small hospitals have a more cordial attitude and better medical skills.
Second, the information channels for the elderly are narrower. They often listen to someone's rumors and believe them easily without verification. Once I heard that a doctor who specializes in some "intractable diseases" happened to get this disease, so I would "seek treatment" like superstition. Unlike young people, they choose whether to see a doctor after checking the authenticity by telephone or online. As a result, I was fooled
Third, greed leads to being fooled. Many elderly people lack financial resources and money. So I dare not go to a big hospital to see a doctor or treat a disease after I get sick. Because there are too many examinations in big hospitals, the cost of medicine is too expensive. The medicines in the hands of various doctors are effective and cheap, and they will compete for "seeking medical treatment".
Fourth, vanity and conformity lead to being fooled. There are still many elderly people who have their own pensions and their children give more, so they are relatively rich. They think they are superior to the average person, and they can afford what the average person can't afford. They think that all kinds of drugs in the hands of famous doctors are "high-end", "specific drugs" and "limited supply", so they should consume first and not lag behind others. It seems that if you don't use specific drugs and expensive drugs, you will lose face. Seeing these people buying, others will follow suit. So I rushed to buy it and volunteered to be fooled.
Secondly, judging from the deception of various imperial doctors. Imperial doctors are often good at trying to figure out the psychology of the elderly, and they are also good at all kinds of packaging and talking. They often exaggerate their medical skills and the magical efficacy of "specific drugs". Sometimes they let all kinds of childcare cooperate, and sometimes they go on TV to publicize ... Once the elderly fall into the scams and traps designed by themselves, they will inevitably be cheated. By the time I found out, the imperial doctor had escaped.
In fact, for the elderly, being fooled once is not terrible. Being cheated many times is getting worse and worse, and finally it is the most sad thing that people and money are empty! Finally, advise elderly comrades to go to a regular hospital for medical treatment!
