So that was a long ass article but worth the read.
Obviously the author is one of integrity which doesn't exist in most media. Reading between it all, I noticed there was something that bothered me far more than the Hospital clearly covering it up, or Weiner outright murdering his patients:
The doctors who brought all of this forward and went through appropriate channels were all suppressed.
A non-profit hospital is a start. And I appreciate the "concerns of patient comfort." But there were so many doctors concerned about the standard of care and likely malpractice, yet nothing is able to be done about it? The 16 year old had a massive tumor missed two weeks prior, and Warwick never had cancer to begin with?
Are we talking about corruption of one doctor? Or are we talking about corruption of a whole system? Medicine needs to be science. Since the doctors come together on a consensus that Weiner was not providing standard of care, then the doctors need the authority to remove him from that position.
This has money and power written all over it.
I get the feeling it's the same in most industries. "Upper leadership" is a problem that needs to be dealt with. Not just executives, but it's a start. Management will destroy this planet because that's the best ROI.
