This is real difficult to un stand but, doctors often know though research how to treat symptoms long before science has found a cure. And you’re using this to disclaim AGW ? Another pigeon argument.The consensus on peptic ulcers changed almost instantly when better evidence was presented. Thus, it's a good example of how science will embrace new data if it's better data, even if it overturns old theories.
And that's bad news for deniers. Needless to say, deniers haven't been able to present any better data to overturn the current good data. Quite the contrary. Their dumb theories were the ones that were originally overturned by the better data.
Deniers, just what is your theory of denialism? What is causing the current fast warming? We know it's not natural cycles, because the current natural cycle should be cooling the earth.
If you can't propose a theory, you're not doing science, so nobody will listen to you.
No that is a flat out lie, they took a while to accept it, meanwhile YOU still haven't understood WHY their consensus over ulcers was so stupid in the first place, since there were ZERO science research establishing that claim in the first place, it was a long running BELIEF is why they didn't at first take Dr. Warrens claims seriously...., they were so stuck on consensus to see that it was full of shit from day one.
Here is the article you obviously avoided reading, which I posted 40
Delayed Gratification: Why it Took Everybody So Long to Acknowledge that Bacteria Cause Ulcers

Institution: History of Science/Medicine
Excerpt:
In 1983, Australian doctors J. Robin Warren and Barry Marshall isolated Helicobacter pylori, the bacterial cause of peptic ulcer disease (P.U.D.). However, decades passed before most doctors prescribed antibiotics to their afflicted patients. Why didn't the medical community hit itself on its collective head? After all, most bacterial diseases had been discovered a century before during Robert Koch's golden age of bacteriology. Why didn't doctors laud Warren and Marshall for their findings? Why didn't long-term ulcer-sufferers champion Warren and Marshall's discovery that with a standard course of oral antibiotics, patients no longer have to swig antacid, feel guilty for leading a stressful life, or massage their stomachs through their coats to distract from their ulcers' gnawing pain. Understanding these questions reveals how complex scientific processes mold contemporary medical discoveries and their reception.
