Jon Jureidini and other clinicians drew attention to problems with the … [Read more...] about Are Journalists the Answer to Clinical Medicines Cause and Effect Problem?

We Won’t Get Fooled Again
We Won't Get Fooled Again sounds much tamer now than it once did. It was an anthem for the left in 1972 but in this context its not clear who's anthem it might be. The message of the WHO song is we will get fooled again - see the RxISK We Will Get Fooled Again. Conspiracies and Cock-ups covered some current views about what is going on in the health domain. It … [Read more...] about We Won’t Get Fooled Again
