Just within the past week, we've had statements from, for example, the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, from the American Academy of Pediatrics, all issuing their concerns that, hey, wait a minute, this isn't so. There's no good reason to do this. And you're talking about vulnerable populations.
But in the U.S., major medical groups downplayed the review. The American Academy of Pediatrics sent a statement to The Times that didn't engage with the review's findings. Instead, the group's president defended the AAP's own guidelines for care, saying they were grounded in evidence and science.
