| Notes | Despite warnings in official reports, from medical educators and organized medicine, the Ontario Minsitry of Health continued to equate the consideration of the assertions of doctors of environmental medicine with the centuries old needs, rights and history of persons with sensitivities. This approach resulted in thousands of preventable deaths and assisted a fringe group of professionals in appropriating the voice of persons whose health complaint had long been known to science, medicine and civil health authorities. Some day someone should study how a long-existing, well known problem for which there was a publicly insured method of diagnosis could be eclipsed behind the irresponsible assertions of a small group of physicians! |
