Typical of the medical field: one of the most studied diseases in the past several decades and now there is a ground-breaking new study that questions all knowledge. I blame the corruption from American medical experts and organizations which only object is to sell drugs.
This does not question all knowledge. Bacteremia and cardiac disease have been linked for years (see upvoted comment above), which is why these studies were done in the first place. This study isn't ground breaking, it's extending an already established area of study.
Furthermore, while there are issues of misaligned incentives across the industry, of the top 10 pharma companies: Roche, AstraZeneca, Bayer, Novartis, Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, GSK, are all based in Europe, so your assertion further down makes no sense.
This idea is not supported by the study in question. Even if it were, what you’re describing is just how science works! The cynicism, while understandable, seems widely irrelevant here.
How science works in America perhaps. Not in Europe. Your "conclusion" about the study is ludicrous, please read it again.
In what sense does it “question all knowledge”?
