Salary of doctors

The entire section about "State and private" is poorly or not at all researched with the very sources it mentions contradicting the text. The linked source (article) is an opinion piece that mentions a salary of "less than 400 USD" in 2008. The other mentions 2.50 USD and 6 USD a month in 2019, BUT A) the source is unreliable B) the numbers are misrepresented and taken entirely out of context, as they say "doctors" in the title, but later on admit that they are talking about students! Both articles are opinion pieces. They neither are valid primary sources, nor do they name valid primary sources and are thus unfit for Wikipedia.2A04:4540:5F0D:DD00:B503:4E17:B446:B418 (talk) 09:40, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
