We have established it to some degree, though not certainty (for me I would need to read the 2007 paper for certainty) but if we want to establish it in a formal sense in the UK then we have to convince enough of the relevant parties to make a difference. It will not be easy.Oh I was thinking we had already established that, but perhaps you mean that we can establish it further?
Are you saying that it's too early to put a case together to put forward to the GMC? Because we are still trying to establish the facts and the data is still being scrutinized?
Currently we cannot provide enough evidence for any kind of criminal fraud.
It does appear we can demonstrate scientific misconduct. I say appear because we need the facts of the 2007 paper to be firmly and publicly established. What is that paper?
As for the rest we know this is very bad science. In all likelihood we might have to settle for that, and in any case once false belief CBT and GET are thoroughly discredited in the view of most doctors we might even find that our advocacy efforts are better placed pushing for research and making effective treatments widely available.
