The New Y-2-K

A friend of mine (Joe Mikhael, Mayo Clinic in Arizona) just came up with a great analogy about the COI saga.  He said that after having talked to me, he realizes the COI will be like the Y-2-K.  Everyone thought doomsday was coming, stacked up on supplies and expected the worst.  With 4 studies now showing that CME sponsored by industry is not biased any more than academic medical centers sponsored one, and with the realization that guidelines are not affected by financial relationships, I agree with him.  The COI saga is very similar to the Y-2-K!
