The AMA Epiphany

ama

Talk about profound statements.  The AMA has come out and stated publicly that:

“While immediate access to online information has been of great benefit to patients and health care professionals, the American Medical Association is greatly concerned that a substantial proportion of health information on the Internet might be inaccurate, erroneous, outdated, misleading, or fraudulent, and thereby pose a threat to patients and public health.”

Welcome, AMA, to the internet age and the year 1999.  You really are in touch with the pulse of today’s doctors, huh?  I guess their next warning will be about the Y2K issue with our computers?
