    I’m not sure the solution is pharmaceutical companies getting to advertise. There has to be a better way lol

      I’m not saying I like those ads, far from it, but the reality is the medical landscape updates so frequently, and doctors are so overwhelmed already, that sometimes an ad is the only way patients learn about new things. Reality sucks sometimes. Maybe one day the information pipeline to doctors will improve, though you still have to depend on them keeping up with everything.

        Then the NIH should get funding to do PSA’s on medical diagnoses and/or potential treatments. Not drug companies pushing their solutions regardless of efficacy or relevance.

        I agree on the problem, my issue is the currently installed solution that is only a solution as a secondary consequence.
