It was only a matter of time before people started to come up with “evidence” that swine flu is all a hoax cooked up to allow the lizard illuminati Bildeberg New World Order freemasons to take over the world… and it’s happening now - this time courtesy of someone using the same name as a BMJ reporter (I’m not sure that it is the same person - but the page I’ve cited here makes the link).

The Institute of Medical Ethics is currently revising the Core Curriculum in Medical Ethics and Law. This is arguably the only document laying out in any kind of detail what medical students in the UK should learn about ethics in medical school, and is therefore not unimportant!

A consultation on the revision in now open (until 31.07.09) and the draft Core Curriculum and consultation document can be found at: http://www.instituteofmedicalethics.org/edu_consult.php

So, provide your comments now to the IME or forever be silent (or at least be silent until the next revision).
