@MichaelBaum11 Well said! Screening (by defn) is the worst form of healthcare, way behind actual prevention & cure, & esp as it creates harmed, anxious, overdiagnosed & overtreated people, many of whom are not 'saved' @HealthSenseUK @EvidenceMatters @NIHRresearch @NIHRevidence @wesstreeting

"I'm a top women's doctor and I would NEVER take up an invite for a breast screening. Women are being lied to by the NHS and this is the REAL truth about mammograms you must know" Hard facts on BC screening from @susan_bewley dailymail.co.uk/health/article…

Women with in-depth understanding of harms of overdiagnosis & overRx confidently decline breast screening & it adds to their dissatisfaction with the way NHSBSP present info. Good. Stop bullying us! @mgtmccartney @BreastCancerNow @trishgreenhalgh @pash22 bmjopen.bmj.com/content/14/12/…

This looks like irresponsible marketing. PSA test is unreliable & not advised for young men without symptoms. Can lead to unnecessary treatment => infection, erectile dysfunction and incontinence news.cancerresearchuk.org/2024/04/06/pro…

Congratulations @mgtmccartney it's an important piece of work, which exposes how far we are from transparent declaration of conflicts of interest in healthcare. We look forward to your work informing policy that will keep patients safer.

Interesting and well designed survey on how we make decisions about whether to take up invitations for screening

2/ Immediately after birth, half the babies had their blood supply cut off (established to be harmful). The experiment looked at their hypoxic brains. The ethics permission was inadequate. @AndyWilks61 @BBCHughPym @ClareWilsonMed @bmj_latest @KamranAbbasi @TheLancet @JAMA_current
