He who has wealth, has hope; and he who has hope, has everything

Zero randomized trials on Berkefeld water filters.
Zero randomized trials on camphor for kids
Zero randomized trials on London’s water companies
Zero randomized trials on cholera cots for industrialized nations

Our nation’s top medical expert, John Simon under scrutiny once again for saying that cholera will end by 1855
