Thanks, Chuck.
You probably know this already, but all my medical students (students I teach
but who are studying to be doctors) are inculcated with the idea that statins
are a wonder drug, a putative "polypill" that all males over 50 should be
taking as a matter of course.
I wonder who put that idea about . . . ?
