Faux Clutter...

 

There are a lot of "not" or faux articles out there.  They aren't recap or rehash.  They aren't false.  They just aren't.  They're unnecessary filler pieces posing as not only the real thing, but as promising pieces.  There's a piece with a provocative title & when you look at there's a lot fancy words, possibly graphics, that say nothing.

I saw a piece this morning promising an article over the best med regimen for people with advanced HIV.  I expected some comparisons, some reviews, some reasoning, but got none of that.  The piece touted the most miniscule point that a certain medication type was superior & should be the 1st line of drugs of chosen to for a patient.  The information was old, debatable & bound to change as new meds develop.  There wasn't a list of meds for people to research.  There were no reasons given for these choices so patients might pursue new avenues.

There was nothing that hadn't already been known.  This piece & those like it are worse than the rehash & recap.  They promise new information & possibilities, when they're just hollow.  It'd be bad enough if these things were on pop-sites, but they occasionally show up on serious medical sites as well.  People don't need filler pieces.

Rant's over. Take care.
