For those who have not done so, I would encourage them
to read Dr. Lewis Eigen's comments "Opposition to WHO top level domain for health."
I believe that his comments provide an interesting perspective. I am well aware
that something should be done to identify "valid" heath information. Misinformation
is harmful and should be diswaded (few of us would disagree). Information that
is "valid" in one nation, is at times unacceptable in another. Even the use
of e-mail for medical communication varies from country to country, from acceptance
to prohibition. One problem is, that each individual country is not taking responsibility
for providing a means of identifiable and reliable health information to its populace.
I believe that this would be a preferable approach. If however, this is not
being pursued, I would support the World Health Organization's desire to do so. As
Dr. Eigen has already stipulated, there are many ways that this might be accomplished.
I would recommend that the approach be carefully considered. Regardless of the method
ultimately applied, the WHO should be congratulated for stepping up to the plate.
