The public, saturated with bogus alternative remedies, quacks on TV and phonies writing bizarre books extolling nonsense have come to believe that real medical expertise does not really matter. Why there is a remedy for anything! The harsh reality is that unless a medical diagnosis is promptly and accurately made at the beginning of an illness, treatments and referrals are not made in a timely outcome and the results are often gruesome. The public not only suffers from political delusions but has been conditioned to accept health fantasies as well.
Simulated quality is the order of the day, because they cannot understand or measure the real thing.

So government should protect us from ourselves?
DU is that way.
