i spent quite a bit of time on this story for @thespinofftv. while doing it, an associate professor of medicine at otago university insinuated i was a conspiracy theorist. you be the judge, i guess: thespinoff.co.nz/the-best-of/06… 
on a serious note, i was gobsmacked and frustrated while finding out what i found out - it seems there's an incredible lack of critical thinking in certain areas of the medical sphere
not just critical thinking - but *googling* things.
