California doctors sue medical board over threat to suspend their licenses if they spread “misinformation.” Examples of “misinformation”: Pasteur said many diseases are caused by bacteria. Semmelweis said doctors should wash their hands. Marshall and Warren said ulcers are caused by H. pylori. Heimlich said use maneuver to clear airway. All were against the “consensus” at the time. Science advances when brilliant outliers challenge the “consensus.” I learned that in high school. Guess they don’t teach it anymore. Guess they don’t teach a lot of things anymore.
