Quackcast 164. FDA and Homeopathy: Part Two.

What this episode covers

Friends, FDA, countrymen, lend me your ears; I come to bury Homeopathy, not to praise it. The evil that homeopaths do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones; So let it be with Homeopathy. The noble Ullman Hath told you homeopathy was effective: If it were so, it was a grievous fault, And grievously hath Homeopathy answer’d it. Here, under leave of Ullman and the rest– For Ullman is an honourable man; So are they all, all honourable men– Come I to speak in Homeopathy’s funeral. It was my nostrum, faithless and worthless to me: But Ullman says it was effective; And Ullman is an honourable man. He hath brought many provings home to HPUS Whose prescriptions did the general coffers fill: Did this in Homeopathy seem effective? When that the ill have died, Homeopathy hath wept: Efficacy should be made of sterner stuff: Yet Ullman says it was effective; And Ullman is an honourable man. You all did see that on the Cochrane I thrice presented Homeopathy a meta-analysis, Which he did thrice refuse: was this efficacy? Yet Ullman says it was effective; And, sure, he is an honourable man. I speak not to disprove what Ullman spoke, But here I am to speak what I do know. Edward De Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford. Sort of.
