What has this got to do with complaints against doctors anyway? I thought the complaint was to an ex-physio with a cushy admin job in a Norwegian...
As far as I can see not. It seems the press release was not from them. The press release says Cochrane have taken the decision to withdraw, not...
That was the example that had come to my mind. Pilots are grounded if they cannot demonstrate competence. Doctors are not. Policemen are not....
SMC have certainly been regarded with more scepticism recently. But maybe other outlets just see that if you read the piece it looks very flimsy...
