What was said

"I think the pandemic did us all kind of a favor because it put everybody's wellness in right in their own face. And I think it woke up a generation of citizen scientists that said, I want to take my healthcare choices into my own hands."

Brecka argued the pandemic forced a cultural shift in personal health autonomy, creating what he calls a generation of citizen scientists who no longer defer to government or institutional healthcare guidance. This reflects broader distrust in traditional medical authority and explains surging demand for direct-to-consumer wellness services.
