Wow, accusing Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins, and Mass General, etc., of dated information. That's pretty bold.

@vector @mcharlesfrancis As with most things medical, there have been great advances in diagnosing and treatments. That said, searches using Google will continue to pull up and present information that may, or may not, be current protocols. I learned this myself as I was searching for information. It pays to go to the articles and look at dates they were created.

In my humble opinion, the sources I want to look for are from large teaching hospitals or well-known clinics. Mayo Clinic, John Hopkins, Sloan Kettering, Cleveland Clinic, Mass General, Baylor University, UCLA, Stanford University, and similar places are the best.
