The ever wonderful Junkfood Science blog puts the current outbreak into its proper scientific and historical context and explains why we don't need to panic just yet. Not that this will stop the media milking the situation for all it is worth and for many to get a good panic out of it! It is required reading for those of you interested in getting behind the headlines about this or that health or diet scare story, with a careful examination of the actual evidence behind them. You'd be surprised to learn just how poor the evidence actually is in many cases. So, let's "be alert, not alarmed!" |
