BMJ op-ed: "Evidence based medicine has been corrupted by corporate interests, failed regulation, and commercialisation of academia"
Couldn't have said it any better myself. Here's what one of the commenter's said: "We may be looking at a systemic failure of unknown proportions." You got that right!
The illusion of evidence based medicine, an op-ed published in the BMJ on March 16, 2022, points out that the system is now corrupt and needs major surgery to fix it.
I couldn’t agree more.
What is stunning is the relative silence from the medical community in supporting the suggested reforms. Just 5 comments on the op-ed after 9 days. All supportive of the op-ed. Not a single comment on the op-ed from anyone in the US.
Wow.
The BMJ does censor comments. But I don’t.
Have a look at the comments below, especially the comment from Mathew Crawford.

I write about COVID mitigation policies, vaccines, corruption, censorship, and early treatments. The data shows that vaccines are ruining the health of Americans and driving the epidemic in a variety of health conditions.
When I'm done with high priority tasks, I will be writing up some articles that show mathematically that the pyramid of evidence is a sham. It's not based on mathematics. It's statistics used inappropriately all over the place, and especially in the area called "evidence-based medicine" which should be renamed "rules of thumb if you don't have time for real math".
Most of the fields of biomedical and epidemiological math are not defensible as statistics. They are scarcely better than psychology, which is a real topic of course, but for which statistics can only usually be used to build on assumptions, not like the harder sciences.
Next to my old doctor's office is a small hospital that was built recently but then has been closed down for several years. It's just sitting there at 4888 N Stone Ave, Tucson, AZ 85704.
I wish I had the resources to re-open it. I would hire the local fired nurses and medical workers, plus local doctors that prescribe Ivermectin. I don't know if anyone's tried to just open a common sense medical center. Why not?
