Avandia and disclosure

In reference to yesterday's post there's an interesting thread on disclosure, both as it relates to Dr. Mintz's handling of his postings on Avandia and to disclosure in general, over at Retired Doc's Thoughts. Most of the public discussion on disclosure consists of posturing, platitudes and name calling. What's needed is frank, respectful and open treatment of the issue. The thread over at Retired Doc's is a good start. Dr. Poses, Dr. Mintz and I have already weighed in and I hope more readers will.
