CZ Talk:Editorial Council Resolution 0013

It might help to look at MedPedia’s disclaimer’s wording:

“The Information on Medpedia is not Medical Advice”

“MEDPEDIA DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE. The information on Medpedia, including text, images, video, graphics, member communications and other information, whether provided by Medpedia or by its members (“Members”) (collectively, the “Content”), does not constitute medical advice of any kind, and is not intended to be, and should not be, used to diagnose or identify treatment for a medical condition. The Content should never be used in place of the advice of your physician or other medical professional, and your use of the Medpedia Service indicates your agreement not to do so.

“Medpedia is intended as an educational resource for you to begin learning about health issues. If you are a patient or suspect that you are suffering from a medical condition, see your doctor for medical advice and diagnosis. If you are affected by any potential health or medical emergency, call your local emergency service immediately. Medpedia does not recommend or endorse any treatment, institution, product, professional, physician, procedure or other information that may be mentioned on Medpedia. By using the Medpedia Service, you understand and agree that the Content is written and monitored in a collaborative effort by a large community of people that are neither employees of Medpedia nor controlled by Medpedia and the Content is constantly changing. Medpedia does not validate or otherwise endorse the Content, nor does it validate the credentials of the people contributing to the Site. The Content is provided “as is” and without any representations or warranties of any kind.”
