Quackery in Mainstream Medicine

Quackery in Mainstream Medicine
Well, I find this disturbing. A Cleveland Clinic doctor came out with an anti-vaccine article.

Then the CEO of the clinic responded, and while not supporting the antivax dialogue did support the clinics use of "acupuncture, yoga, chinese herbal medicine, guided imagery and relaxation techniques" among other CAM.

Bottom line: M.D. does not necessarily equal medical ethics. If it does not set well or seem right, be a skeptic.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

Facts no longer matter to too many Americans. We are fucked.
