Huntster Posted October 12, 2018 Author Posted October 12, 2018 How about another example of scientific corruption, this time medical?: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_A._Couney Martin Arthur Couney (1870–March 1, 1950) was a physician and pioneer in neonatology. Though he claimed to have been a student of Pierre-Constant Budin, this claim cannot be verified. There is good reason to believe that he was not a trained medical doctor at all.[2] He is best known for helping parents of premature infants by placing them in neonatal incubators when they were not allowed in most hospitals.[3] He operated exhibits of premature infants at the Berlin Exposition of 1896, at Earls Court Exhibition Centre in London, at the Trans-Mississippi Exposition in Omaha, Nebraska in 1898, at the World's Fair in Paris in 1900, at the World's Fair in Buffalo, New York in 1901, and most famously, for many years at Coney Island, New York, where he charged 25 cents to view the babies so parents would not have to pay for their children's medical care.[1][4][5] His exhibition at Luna Park opened in 1903.[6] Incubators were included in hospitals shortly before his death in 1950.[3][7].......... So here’s a guy who saved thousands of babies with his baby incubator invention for a half century before the medical industry started using them. He financed his works of mercy by including them in carnival exhibits so that poor parents might have their babies lives saved while the medical industry blew him off. This makes 2500 years of gorilla denial and a century of sasquatch denial look moral.
SWWASAS Posted October 13, 2018 BFF Patron Posted October 13, 2018 I have had a terrible suspicion that much cancer might be treatable or preventable but cancer treatment is such a huge industry that there is not a lot of incentive to do anything about it. Infusing poisons into human bodies and hoping that poison kills the cancer before the human dies seems pretty much as barbaric as bleeding for a treatment. When even more expensive gene manipulation therapy replaces chemo we might start to see real results. 4
