Evidence-based medicine under attack | Public Library of Science

Evidence-based medicine under attack | Public Library of Science:

"Here we go again. Evidence-based medicine (EBM) has once more come under fire, only this time the accusations are even more brutal. The EBM movement, says a group of academics at the University of Ottawa and the University of Toronto, is 'outrageously exclusionary,' 'dangerously normative,' and 'a good example of microfascism at play.' As an EBM believer, I guess this would make me a microfascist."

Comment: Me too. I very much want to exclude physicians from practicing on me who do not base their diagnostic and prescriptive judgement on scientific evidence.
