MARCO Grand Rounds for November 17, 2013

From Warren KD4GUA:

     This week we will comment on the new guidelines redefining statin use.  Actually this is not earth-shattering news as the press seems to think, since most of us treat individual patients as individual patients. However, it is a good subject which goes back to "should statins be sold over the counter?" and "should all diabetics be taking a statin?" 



      All one has to go back to is the proliferation of trans fats, saturated hydrogenated fats, being better as margerine than butter--now the table has turned, and butter is the hot baby.

NOTE: ARRL Phone Sweepstakes is this weekend, so it is best to occupy the frequency early and defend it aggressively.
