It's as if that entire damn country is on a mission to spread medical misinformation around the world

What your local hospital out-sourced their hot line?

I'm doing a comparative review of popular medical websites and the reliability of the information they offer, and virtually all the worst ones are Indian. They give hugely flawed, even dangerous advice. Even the most basic stuff, they get wrong.

It's so bad that I'm starting to think that they're on a quest to kill off foreigners

I'd hardly call 5% "almost 40%"

5% is still impressive, of course, considering that only about 0.5% of the US population is Indian.

India came out with a soft drink made of cow urine. Read it in the news articles.

Also - Cow is sacred animal in India.

P.S.

(Unrelated to cows):

Up here they're mostly South African, with Filipino nurses. At least in the rural areas.

Thats because they are dumb in India and they like to cheat using dumb methods. Just go to other mainstream webmaster boards and see what they post... lol

However, like in every nation there are some individuals that are not like the rest.

I have taken a "basket" of common health issues, ranging from minor to potentially life-threatening, and compiled data from authoritative sources (Cochrane Reviews, Clinical Evidence, UpToDate, etc.) on prevention, treatment and management of those health problems.

For all popular medical websites being examined, their advice about the health issues in the basket is compared to the available evidence-backed data. Websites are graded on the degree to which their advice corresponds with accepted standards.

Of course, in practice it's a fair bit more complicated than it sounds (the advice to see a doctor for potentially dangerous conditions is taken as a plus, non-standard treatments that are backed with research are not taken as a negative, etc.), but the end results manage to give a pretty good indication of whether the info on a website is any good.

So far, sites made by companies based in India (based in India - so that excludes Indian-American owned companies) have given the worst results. And I'm not talking about small stuff, either.

Here are some examples of bad information I've encountered:

- Use two condoms on top of each other for double protection.
- Only gays can get HIV.
- Treat yeast infections with antibiotics.
- Masturbation can cause schizophrenia.
- You can't get pregnant from the first time you have sex.
- Ignore chest pain if you're not overweight.
- Avoid exercise more strenuous than walking.
- Your diet should not contain any oil.
- Avoid meat, nuts, fish, dairy and soy.

And that's just a very small selection.

The most troubling thing is that many websites appear to simply base their information on whatever crosses their path - ranging from actual studies to urban legends that happen to get mentioned in a news story.

Here's a hoax that has been featured as "research" on hundreds if not thousands of health-related websites:

I think if you looked into majority of the under developed/2nd-3rd world countries have beliefs that defy and can endanger not only because of the lack of factual education and the supersticious beliefs. Look at some places in Africa who believe that having sex with virgins can cure AIDS. Or the Phillipines where women are taught not to wash their hair during their periods because that can lead to catching pnuemonia.
