EXCERPT:

outside of their government work over the past 10 years.

NIH to launch ethics review

Zerhouni promises comprehensive look at lucrative consulting payments
to top officials | By Ted Agres

The National Institutes of Health (NIH), stung by recent allegations
of financial wrongdoing on the part of some present and former senior
officials, plans to announce today (December 10) a major review of how
the agency handles conflict-of-interest matters when top agency
employees receive lucrative consulting contracts from private
companies.

Yay! More evidence of conventional medicine policing its own and
trying to weed out the bad actors.

Yeah!!!! The evidence of policing is void when a doc kills a patient, commits
fraud deliberately repeats violations.

And remains on staff.

Uh huh.

This isn't policing, it's caled *getting caught*

Have you heard anything about
Alt-Med looking into ethical lapses among its own adherents? Didn't
think so...

When and if it happens, you will hear about it as wrong is wrong, and unlike
the debunkers here, who don't give a damn who lies, some of us are honest and
not selective.
