Oh please!
He was given a “rapid-screening instrument for mild cognitive dysfunction” that
asks patients to repeat a list of spoken words, identify pictures of animals like a lion or a camel, draw a cube or draw a clock face set to a particular time.
Sounds like something given in kindergarten
No, it's a classic test to rule out the onset of dementia, quite a reasonable thing to do for a 71 year old. My 71 year old father-in-law failed the clock face test and the others. He was in big trouble.
As I posted earlier it is not an exam to determine if a person is mentally ill or if a person has the skill set to be president. It should rule out the dementia theory but won't.
Do you mean...
The test is ineffective... or
It won't stop the conspiracy theorists theorising.
Sorry, that's meant to be a genuine question, not a wind up.
It will be widely believed the doctor and his statements are part of a cover up.
