When there are many Studies some fig are dodgy. We as doctors must never worry about dodgy fig but must worry how to make

If you quote dodgy numbers you’ll be reminded that they’re dodgy, & you’ll look dodgy & lose credibility

That’s total bollux. Disputing the numbers isn’t denial, it’s understanding the issue. It’s understanding clinical medicine. Sorry, there are no short cuts here

Why don’t you just accept it already? It’s a problem! Are you denying it’s a problem? Do you hate patients? If you don’t accept our shoddy methods and inflate numbers to scare the shit out of people you hate patients *and* puppies. Do you hate puppies too?
